Coming Soon
Discover upcoming releases and the innovations on the horizon.
A look at the features that are in delivery or ready for release in the weeks ahead.
These features come directly from feedback shared by the teams who plan, run, and report on offshore and onshore wind work every day. Some are in active delivery and some are ready for release, so you can see what is on the way before it reaches your account.
Work Planning
Campaign end date for scheduled maintenance tasks
Each scheduled maintenance task gets a Campaign end date, set directly below the Campaign start date. Uncompleted work is canceled at that date instead of at December 31, and campaigns can span the new year, for example November 1 to February 28. Tasks without an end date behave exactly as they do today.
Why it matters: a summer campaign or a winter window is modeled as it really runs, so availability and cost results are no longer distorted by an artificial year-end cutoff.
Resources
Availability windows for logistics units
Any vessel, helicopter, CTV or SOV can have an optional Available from date and an Available until date, or a duration in days, months or years. The unit is only used inside that window, and its existing schedule still applies within it. This works in both O&M and Construction cases, and units without a window are unaffected.
Why it matters: you can model a second SOV joining the fleet in year three, or a charter that ends partway through the project, in a single case.
Availability windows for personnel groups
Full-time and subcontractor personnel groups get optional Available from and Available until dates that limit their existing availability pattern. A seasonal group stays seasonal, but only within the dates you set. The dates also appear in the Excel case-input export.
Why it matters: a contractor-to-in-house handover, or extra technicians for a retrofit year, no longer needs a separate case for each period.
Defects
Defect ID column
The main defect list gets a Defect ID column.
Why it matters: you can find and reference a specific defect in the list without opening it.
Linked work orders on defects
After a defect is released to a work order, the work order ID shows in the All Defects list instead of a count, and a read-only Linked work orders list with ID and name appears when you edit the defect. If a defect has several work orders, all of them are shown.
Why it matters: you can see where a defect went without searching through work orders.
Choose, reorder and sort columns in All Defects
All Defects gets the same column controls as All Work Orders. You can show or hide columns, change their order, move Defect Status to the front, and sort by any column. Your choice is saved per user, and you can reset to the default columns.
Why it matters: the fields you use most sit at the left, so you stop scrolling sideways on every visit.
Filter All Defects by status
The filter bar on All Defects adds a Defect Status filter that accepts more than one status and works together with the existing Asset, Category and Reported date filters.
Why it matters: finding the defects you need to close, release or review takes one selection instead of scanning the whole list.
Work order status when linking defects
The Select Work Orders window, used when you link a defect to an existing work order, gets a Status column between ID and Asset. It appears in both the single-defect and bulk linking windows.
Why it matters: you can tell an open work order from a closed one before you attach defects to it.
Export defects to PDF
You can export a defect to PDF, including its attachments, with the same information shown in the defect window. It works like the existing work order PDF export.
Why it matters: defect records can be shared with other teams, stored in a document management system for an audit trail, or used as documentation for warranty claims.
Work Orders
Inline filter row for tables
Tables start with a filter box under each column header, beginning with All Work Orders and All Defects. The boxes follow whichever columns you have selected and reordered, and the existing filter panel stays available for advanced searches with multiple conditions. On All Defects, the Object ID and Object columns are being corrected to show the defect’s true location, so the new filters work on accurate data.
Why it matters: a quick lookup on one column no longer means opening a panel, setting criteria, applying and closing it.
Inventory
Simpler inventory setup
Inventory gets two areas, Catalog and Stock. Catalog combines Groups and Names in one place, and Stock replaces All Inventory with clearer grouping by Catalog group, Current location, Work package or Not grouped. You can add a new Name from inside the Add Item flow, filter Stock by Responsible person, and create multiple Equipment items in one step. Fields that determine whether an item can be picked in a DPR are marked Required for DPR.
Why it matters: non-administrators can add inventory without asking an administrator to create a Name first, and fewer duplicate or unassigned records end up in your catalog.
Item-level detail in DPR inventory
The inventory section of a DPR template offers two options: Materials and Inventory by groups, which keeps today’s output, and Materials and Inventory by names, which lists the individual Names with quantities. Existing templates keep the by groups section, so reports you already generated do not change.
Why it matters: your DPR can show the specific inventory used rather than only the broader group, without altering past reports.
Platform Inframstructure
Personalized Home page
After you log in, a new Home page shows what needs your attention today. A Needs attention list gathers pending approvals across permits, work orders and timesheets, plus defects flagged for review, with inline approve and reject. My activities lists your assignments for the day with a Register time action. Shortcuts give one-click access to create a report, defect, timesheet, work order or checklist. Optional widgets show your rotation and the weather at your activity location.
Why it matters: you start each shift knowing what needs a decision and what is on your schedule, without opening several modules.
Conflict-aware editing
When two people edit the same record, such as a checklist, work order or defect, the platform now blocks a save that would silently overwrite the other person’s changes. You see which fields changed and who changed them, and you choose whether to reload or reconcile before saving again.
Why it matters: no one’s work disappears because a colleague saved a moment later.
Reliable offline work for work orders, defects and checklists
The mobile app pre-loads the work assigned to you before you go offline, so you do not open an empty app. Material and labor entry on work orders work offline, photos and attachments are queued and retried instead of dropped, and defect locations can be chosen down to asset and subassembly level without a connection. Changes sync back once you are online and are verified rather than just saved locally.
Why it matters: a technician working offshore with little or no signal can complete a full day’s work without losing data or being blocked from recording it.
Structured asset and position IDs
The current Asset ID field is renamed External ID, with existing values kept. A new Asset ID field holds each object’s own short code: free text for sites and assets, and a selection from a predefined list managed in Account Settings for subassemblies and components. A calculated Position ID combines the codes up the hierarchy, for example W003.G001.MDK20, and is visible in forms and lists and searchable.
Why it matters: assets get consistent identifiers that show where they sit in the hierarchy, and administrators control the allowed codes centrally.
Public API for asset hierarchy and inventory names
New Public API endpoints, with read and write access, cover the asset hierarchy and related account settings such as asset type and site type, and inventory names including name, inventory type and unit. Creating an inventory name returns its ID so stock can be associated with it straight away.
Why it matters: you can load asset structures and inventory names from your own systems instead of entering them by hand in Account Settings.
Time zone handling
Time zone handling across the platform is being improved.
Why it matters: dates and times are consistent for teams working across locations.
Reporting & Analytics
Structured results and Shoreline Lens
Simulation results are being reorganized into Overview, Result analysis and Detailed results tabs, with a small set of primary KPIs first and drill-down on demand. Missing data is being added, including fuel consumption for W2W and CTV, distance to wind farm, per-turbine installation dates and non-aggregated utilization, and percentage KPIs show their reference period. Shoreline Lens, an AI layer built on your simulation data, generates findings, sensitivity recommendations and a written summary only when you ask for them, clearly labeled as guidance. Downloads can be configured by format, P-value and outputs, with filenames that include site, case, P-value and date.
Why it matters: you see the metrics that matter first, can trace a finding to its evidence, and export files that go straight into stakeholder material without restructuring.
Faster, cleaner reports
The Report is being rebuilt for speed, with in-line editing in every section instead of full page reloads. The single-day view is replaced by a date range picker, and the PDF export gets a cleaner layout.
Why it matters: you can review work across shifts, weeks or campaigns, and edit during active maintenance cycles without waiting on the page.
Custom free-text columns in report templates
You can add one or more free-text fields to a report template section, such as Completed Activities or Planned Activities, with a “+” control and a label of your choice. Each field appears as its own column in the generated report. Templates without custom fields continue to work unchanged.
Why it matters: one flexible template can capture a project-specific data point, without a bespoke template or a support request.
