Success story 01 — Scenic

Scaling Efficiency from River Ships to Ocean Expeditions.

THE CHALLENGE

Fragmented Systems, Growing Fleet

Scenic was using fragmented legacy programs that made managing even a single vessel time-consuming. Since collaborating with RadiantFleet in 2019, they have streamlined HR and payroll for a growing multi-vessel fleet. As their ambitions expanded from river cruising to luxury ocean expeditions, RadiantFleet scaled with them to handle the increased complexity of global operations.

Legacy systems No crew self-service Scaling barriers
BEFORE

The Starting Point

6 vessels managed across disconnected tools. HR admin took days per rotation cycle. Crew had zero visibility into their own schedules or payslips, leading to low satisfaction and frequent manual corrections.

6 vessels Manual payroll Low crew satisfaction
THE IMPACT

The Numbers

6 to 24

Vessels on the platform

Administrative tasks that previously took days now take only hours. The efficiency gain enabled Scenic to scale their fleet to 20 river vessels and 4 luxury ocean expedition ships, all within the same unified RadiantFleet ecosystem.

4x fleet growth River & Ocean unified
THE RESULT

Unified Operations at Scale

By unifying operations on RadiantFleet, Scenic gained a single source of truth for crew management across their entire fleet. Crew members now access schedules, payslips, and travel details through the mobile portal. HR has real-time visibility and automated compliance tracking, making fleet expansion possible without proportional headcount growth.

Success story 02 — River Advice

Revolutionising Crew Management in Inland Waterways.

THE CHALLENGE

Legacy System That Couldn't Scale

River Advice relied on a legacy in-house system that couldn't scale. Manual payroll and disconnected software led to errors and high workload for a crew of 2,000+ spread across their river fleet. The lack of integration between HR, payroll, and operations created data silos that compounded with every new vessel added to the fleet.

In-house legacy Manual payroll errors Data silos
BEFORE

The Starting Point

Over 2,000 crew members managed through a custom in-house system that had become a bottleneck. Payroll was processed manually with frequent errors. Reporting was retrospective and spreadsheet-driven, making proactive decisions impossible.

crew records migrated in weeks

Partnered since 2018, River Advice achieved seamless data migration in weeks. Payroll errors dropped dramatically, and the platform enabled the real-time reporting that led to their Good Employer Label recognition from European unions.

THE SOLUTION

Digitalised End-to-End Operations

Seamless data migration in weeks, with zero operational downtime. Reduced redundancies, real-time reporting replaced manual spreadsheets, and the resulting operational excellence earned River Advice a Good Employer Label recognition from European unions. Crew satisfaction improved measurably with the introduction of the self-service portal.

Success story 03 — Scylla

One Platform. Total Control: How Scylla Transformed Crew Operations.

THE CHALLENGE

Manual coordination across a multinational workforce

Managing crewing, recruitment, and payroll became increasingly complex with Scylla's fleet growth. Fragmented systems and manual entries led to time-consuming coordination between office and onboard teams, creating a heavy administrative burden that hindered operational visibility.

Manual processes Multinational crew Admin bottleneck
BEFORE

The Starting Point

Free day calendars and expenses were submitted via manual forms, requiring 2-3 days of office work per cycle to enter into payroll. Recruitment was handled outside any structured system, limiting transparency and collaboration with external partners.

2-3 days manual entry Fragmented recruitment
THE IMPACT

The Numbers

100%

Digitalised end-to-end workflow

The implementation of RadiantFleet and a tailor-made ATS digitalised the entire crew lifecycle. Manual data entry was eliminated as crew members and onboard teams began submitting data directly via the Crew Portal.

Tailor-made ATS Direct crew submissions
THE RESULT

Unified Operations at Scale

Scylla now operates with total control from a single platform. Administrative workload has dropped significantly, allowing the team to focus on operational priorities. Transparency across departments has enhanced coordination in crew planning, contracts, and payroll.
