BASSnet Neo – Launching a Unified, Fully Managed Maritime SaaS Solution
OSLO, Norway; [26th August 2026]: BASS Software has released a new version of BASSnet Neo, extending its next-generation maritime ERP solution into a fully integrated cloud-native SaaS suite.
With this release, BASSnet Neo unifies Maintenance, Procurement, Materials, Projects (Dry Docking), Document Management, and HSEQ modules, enabling ship owners and managers to run critical fleet operations from one platform.
Because BASS runs the SaaS platform end to end—from hosting to security and updates—customers benefit from lower costs, risks and IT complexity.
“Modern maritime operations demand connected, data-driven solutions. The new version of BASSnet Neo marks a major step forward, delivering an integrated, future-ready SaaS platform,” said Per Steinar Upsaker, CEO & Managing Director of BASS Software. “Traditional web-based systems, built on legacy architecture adapted for browser access, can result in slow innovation, cybersecurity risks, increased complexity, and higher costs. BASSnet Neo is different. Purpose-built as cloud-native SaaS, it reduces maintenance overhead in the long term while delivering scalability, security, AI-readiness, and continuous innovation.”
By unifying key workflows within a single ecosystem, BASSnet Neo helps shipping companies improve visibility, strengthen vessel–shore collaboration, and operate with greater agility and resilience.
