Baxter Marine Group
A newcomer to the maritime industry is looking to make waves. Baxter Marine Group was founded in 2021 by the leadership team that revolutionized maintenance, inventory, and compliance software in the aviation industry. Now the company seeks to revolutionize the marine industry with products ranging from proactive maintenance solutions to damage control. In January, Baxter Marine Group acquired Vessel Vanguard, WheelHouse Technologies, and SeaKits Damage Control, with the goal to provide products and services that focus on marine safety and marine safety management. In September, Baxter launched its new Vessel Vanguard Pro and Vessel Vanguard SMS platforms geared for the large vessel owner and commercial fl eets. The same team that built the company’s aviation platform has designed and built the new VV platforms, providing a comprehensive solution where forms, communications (alerts, emails, etc.), reporting and compliance forms are integrated into one platform - with an e-signature capability
