Vessel Specific Familiarisation E-mail

It is well known that seafarers have to be familiar with several regulations in order to follow up vessel's tight operational schedule.

In these days after five years of ISM implementation it is clear that many of the problems faced are mainly due to ineffective crew familiarisation with several company or regulatory requirements.

 

Common problems faced in these days are:

  • Small companies do not have the expertise to properly address the issue of crew training effectively.

  • Training should incorporate a wide range of aspects that in most of the cases are not being addressed.

  • Seafarers flying directly to vessel are not getting any kind of company induction before joining vessel.

  • System for the documentation of training is not effective.

 

Compliance with regulations

The training application developed by IBS provides the most cost & time effective crew / shore based personnel familiarisation with vessel specific arrangements combined with safety and ISM

 

Company’s requirements.

The application is being tailored on a company SMS specific basis to incorporate any special requirement using & explaining presentation materials such ship’s specific video, photos & plans to enhance understanding as it could be live familiarisation.
