Lost in the Data Fog: Why Offshore Needs Digitalisation to See Clearly

By Lindi Brogneri | COO – LOGiiT

In June 2025, at the IMCA Europe & Africa Regional Meeting in London, I highlighted the urgent need for offshore digitalisation. As the COO of LOGiiT, I explained how digital logbooks, competence tracking (COMPiiT), project management (PLANiiT), and OCR record conversion (SCANiiT) are transforming the way the offshore industry manages workforce data and competence visibility.

The Data Deficit

Today’s offshore industry still relies on fragmented spreadsheets, handwritten logbooks, and siloed HR systems. As a result:

  • Retirement trends go untracked
  • Skills fade unnoticed
  • Competence gaps become risks
  • Career pathways remain unclear

We’re trying to build the future with systems from the past. That’s not just inefficient—it’s unsafe, unsustainable, and unattractive to the next generation.

Digitalisation = Visibility + Accountability + Growth

Digitalisation isn’t a trend. It’s the only way to see the true state of our workforce.

That’s why we founded LOGiiT, the first IMCA Member to provide a digital logbook ecosystem built specifically for offshore professionals.

Introducing LOGiiT: The Visibility Engine for Offshore Talent

LOGiiT transforms fragmented workforce data into actionable intelligence through four integrated solutions:

  • LOGiiT – Real-time Digital Logbook data of dives and offshore activities
  • COMPiiT – Competence tracking aligned with IMCA’s competence framework
  • PLANiiT – Offshore project management with offline-first capability
  • SCANiiT – OCR-based digitisation of handwritten records

With LOGiiT, every project, person, and qualification becomes traceable, visible, and instantly usable across devices and deployments.

Building a Talent Map from the Bottom Up

Once digitalisation takes root, we unlock what the industry desperately needs:

  • Real-time dashboards of workforce trends
  • Career maps from curiosity to certified
  • Predictive skills planning across sectors
  • Competence visibility for audits and hiring
  • Retention strategies built on real data

LOGiiT doesn’t just preserve the past; it builds the tools to plan for tomorrow.

Final Thought: Data Powers Decisions

Until we digitise our workforce, we’ll keep guessing at the answers. We’ll struggle to recruit, lose the knowledge wealth of seasoned professionals, and watch valuable talent walk away without a trace.

But it doesn’t have to be that way. LOGiiT gives our industry the vision, insight, and strategy it’s been missing.

Let’s stop flying blind. Let’s digitalise. Let’s #LOGiiT. Visit: logiit.co and discover how.
