Provisions that never miss a tide. Buildings that never miss a beat.

Home Philosophies Ltd is the AI operating system for marine chandling and facility management — predicting what every vessel and every building needs, before it needs it. From berth to building, one intelligence layer runs the back office for both.

Two businesses, one operating system

Marine chandling and facility management, run by one intelligence layer.

Both are field-service-heavy, document-heavy, SLA-bound operations. HPLtd runs the back office for both — so a vessel provisioned at Apapa Port and a tower managed on Victoria Island answer to the same predictive engine.

Fresh provisions and ship supplies being loaded onto a vessel at port
Marine Chandling

Everything a vessel needs to sail

Order-to-delivery within the port window, with IMPA-coded requisitions, customs-cleared bonded stores and four-way matched invoices.

Food, Beverages & Duty-Free

Fresh, frozen, dry provisions and bonded stores — halal, kosher, dietary-specific — sourced and cold-chain managed to MLC 2006 standards.

Medical & Safety Equipment

Medical chest top-ups, SOLAS-med safety gear, lifeboat spares and certified engineering stores.

Fresh Water Supply

Potable bunker water delivered alongside or via launch boat, with potable-grade tankers and logs.

Waste Disposal

MARPOL Annex V port-reception-facility services — garbage categorised, manifest issued, receipt logged.

Toiletries & Cabin

Cabin supplies, toiletries, cleaning consumables and linen refreshed per voyage.

HVAC Systems Management

Operate chillers, AHUs, VAVs and BMS — with predictive fault detection that flags failures 14–28 days early.

Security

Manned guarding plus electronic security — CCTV analytics, access control, perimeter and incident response.

Cleaning

BICSc-certified cleaning with route-optimised scheduling, occupancy-aware frequencies and photo-evidenced SLAs.

Building, Environment & Space

Space utilisation, occupancy analytics, energy optimisation, compliance testing and asset lifecycle.

Modern commercial building with rooftop HVAC plant at dusk
Facility Management

Everything a building needs to perform

ISO 41001-certified integrated facility management with predictive maintenance, SLA evidence and ESG-grade reporting.

HPLtd AI · the intelligence layer

Sixteen AI capabilities that turn field operations from reactive to predicted.

Every capability ships on web, mobile, or both — wired into the same data spine. These are the nine that change the P&L first.

Both

AIS-aware ETA Provisioning Planner

Predicts vessel ETA/ETB/ETD from AIS, weather and port-congestion data — and triggers the chandling procurement countdown before the PO even arrives.

Captures the port window every time. Ships spend 15–22 days/yr waiting at anchor; we make sure supplies are ready first.
Both

Predictive HVAC Fault Detection

ML on BMS telemetry — chiller approach temp, compressor vibration, AHU ΔT — flags faults 14–28 days before failure and auto-raises work orders.

Avoids $8,400–$22,000 per failure event. Up to 30% downtime cut, ~20% energy saved.
Both

Requisition OCR + IMPA Auto-Tagger

Parses messy PDF / Excel / WhatsApp requisitions into structured line items and suggests IMPA / ISSA codes automatically.

Removes 1–3 hrs of manual data entry per order; cuts wrong-item deliveries.
Web

Four-Way Invoice Match Engine

Reconciles PO + delivery note + vessel confirmation + invoice with AI tolerance and delivery-note OCR — the control 3-way matching silently misses.

60–70% of maritime invoices fail 3-way match. We close the gap at ~$85 per failed match.
Both

Computer-Vision Bonded-Store Counter

Phone or CCTV counts bottles and cartons in the bonded warehouse and reconciles against the customs ledger in seconds.

10–15% opex cut, up to 15× faster counts, protects the bonded license.
Both

Cold-Chain Freshness Predictor

Predicts remaining shelf life from temperature-logger history, product class and voyage duration — warns before stock spoils at sea.

Cuts spoilage claims and protects MLC 2006 Reg 3.2 food-quality compliance.
App

MARPOL Annex V Waste-Manifest OCR

Photograph onboard garbage categories; the app generates the port-reception-facility manifest and receipt automatically.

Removes paperwork errors that delay vessel departure; mandatory compliance.
App

Voice-to-Work-Order

Technicians speak the close-out — 'replaced VAV damper on AHU-3, P/N 4471, 35 min' — and the LLM structures it into the CMMS.

5–10 min admin saved per job; better data quality, hands-free on site.
Web

ESG / CSRD Scope-3 Calculator

Auto-computes Scope-3 emissions from delivery fuel, FM energy and refrigerants — outputs CSRD/ESRS and Sea Cargo Charter reports.

Solves the 2024+ EU CSRD gap; turns emissions into a defensible data point.

Now shipping

  • AIS-aware ETA Provisioning Planner
  • Predictive HVAC Fault Detection (FDD)
  • Requisition OCR + IMPA auto-tagger
  • Four-way invoice match engine
  • Cold-chain freshness predictor

Next quarter

  • Computer-vision bonded-store counting
  • Predictive SLA-breach radar
  • AI cleaning-route optimizer
  • Provisions demand forecaster (per port)
  • Security anomaly vision (CCTV)

On the roadmap

  • AI duty-free HS-code classifier
  • Autonomous launch-boat dispatch
  • Vessel-friendly LLM catalog search
  • MARPOL Annex V OCR manifest
  • Digital twin: vessel + facility combined

Field operations should be predicted, not reacted to. The numbers say why.

Get started

Put HPLtd AI on your vessels and your buildings.

Tell us what you run — a fleet, a portfolio, or both — and we'll scope a pilot around your highest-cost operational gap.

Marine chandling pilot

Start with one port and one vessel class. We prove the ETA-provisioning loop in 30 days.

Facilities pilot

Start with one building's HVAC + security. Predictive FDD typically pays back in the first avoided failure.
