Meridian Fleet Operations Center
AI-powered cruise line FOC — concept demo
What is this?
A scripted concept demonstration of an AI-powered Fleet Operations Center for a fictional cruise line operator, Meridian Cruise Group. The center monitors a 102-vessel fleet across 5 sub-brands in real time.
Nine specialized AI watch agents brief the FOC commander on fleet status, weather, ports, OT health, guest experience, security, network posture, medical surveillance, and regulatory compliance. The Chief Risk Officer synthesizes the watch into an executive heat-grid.
This is not a live system. It is a concept demo built to showcase how the ServiceNow + Everbridge + Ekatra Emergency Event Management reference architecture adapts to cruise line fleet operations.
The two scenarios
▶ START BRIEFING
Steady-state morning watch. Nine AI agents walk the commander through a normal day across 102 ships — weather, ports, security, OT health, guest experience, regulatory posture. Closes with the CRO's executive heat-grid synthesis.
⚠ EEM — EMERGENCY EVENT MANAGEMENT
Hurricane Atlas activation. Category 3 storm threatening 14 ships and 6 ports across the Caribbean basin. Demonstrates the full six-phase EEM lifecycle: Detect → Assess → Activate → Execute → Communicate → Audit, ending in safe diversion of all vessels with audit-ready regulatory evidence preserved.
The architecture
ServiceNow
Platform foundation — AI Control Tower (governs the agents), CMDB, Fleet Asset Model, FSM, Knowledge Base (mobile-distributed safety protocols with read receipts), IRM/GRC for compliance evidence, Work Orders for governed execution.
Everbridge
EmergencyWatch — signal monitoring, impact analysis, mass notification across stakeholder pipelines (guests, crew, regulators, ports, families).
Ekatra
EmergencyAct v1.0.7 — governed Action Plan Templates, Emergency Action Planner generates idempotent Work Orders with CI batching and full event-to-task lineage.
Armis
Shipboard OT visibility and cyber-physical asset attestation across the fleet. Roadmapped for the cyber/OT incident scenario.
