15th Feb – Singapore – KPI Seminar on the – representatives from 36 mostly new to KPI concept shipping companies joined us – George, Ajay and Kuba (as Markus is sick in Cyprus) for what was probably the best KPI workshop so far. We had very unified group and that allowed us to cover a lot of ground in 7 hrs workshop. Concept, history and the way forward plus absolutely great insight of the concept from a user’s point of view including current available benchmarkings used by industry – very impressive and powerful was done by Ajay Tripathi of MMS.
