D.O.P.A. covers the dive operation and its paperwork. For many contractors that is the whole requirement.
Others reach a point where the operational record needs to connect to the rest of the business, or where the way they work depends on something no standard product has. That is what Custom Solutions is for — and it is scoped, quoted and delivered as separate work, not switched on inside D.O.P.A.
What this can cover
What Custom Solutions can include
Every engagement is different. When specifically scoped, a custom build can cover any of these. None of them is part of standard D.O.P.A.
Customer management and CRM
Customer records, contacts and the history of the work done for each of them.
Quotations
Connecting the work you are asked to do to what gets quoted.
Invoicing
Connecting what was done on site to what gets billed.
Business workflows and automation
The sequence your business follows, including the steps that only exist in your company.
Integrations
Connecting to the systems already in use elsewhere in the business.
Fleet, asset and equipment systems
Structured records for vessels, equipment and the assets you work on, with their history.
Bespoke operational systems
Complete operational systems built around how a contractor already works.
Other custom development
Where your work depends on something a standard product has never heard of.
Important
What's included, and what isn't
Standard
Included in D.O.P.A.
The dive operation and its paperwork — offline on site, synchronised to the office, retrievable afterwards. As described on the D.O.P.A. page.
Separate
Available through Custom Solutions
Everything on this page. Scoped, quoted and delivered as a separate piece of work — not switched on inside the standard product.
What this can become
A bespoke system, six years into live operations
Marine Deep has built and supported a bespoke operational system for a UK commercial diving contractor since 2020. It now holds more than 5,000 recorded operations, and its records have been used during live customer audits.
How it works
A scoped piece of work, not an open-ended project
We look at how you work now
Including the parts that are on paper, in spreadsheets, or in somebody's head.
We scope it properly
Written scope, with what is and isn't included, before any commitment.
We build and deliver it
Against that scope, in stages you can see.
It keeps working
Ongoing support and changes as the operation changes.
