We had the great opportunity to visit the Belgian state fleet operator, Vloot. This centralised organisation has been efficiently managing the country’s state vessels for more than two decades, demonstrating the significant benefits of a consolidated state fleet management. The Belgian approach brings together invaluable knowledge and experience to optimise maritime operations in a centralized way.
Vloot’s centralised management system streamlines operations and improves resource allocation. This model ensures that all the state vessels operate on the basis of a consolidated strategy, leading to greater efficiency and cost-effectiveness. For countries such as Estonia, which are in the process of developing their national fleets, the introduction of a similar centralised and consolidated approach could bring significant benefits and savings.
Workboats Consulting specialises in maritime project management and consultancy services, supporting clients in complex issues including fleet development and management. Our expertise includes the design and implementation of centralized fleet management systems tailored to each client’s unique needs. Drawing on our experience and the proven success of models like Vloot, we guide organisations towards achieving their maritime objectives.





Ultimately, a visit to a Belgian state fleet operator Vloot gave us a good insight into a solution that works. Workboats Consulting is committed to applying this knowledge to support the formation of a dynamic and efficient Estonian State Fleet.
