We carry out Flag State Surveys, ISM &ISPS Audits, MLC Inspections and Annual Safety Inspections on behalf of a number of white-list flags, as required. One of the services we offer are Navigational Assessments with focus on the Nautical Institute Navigational Assessment criterial. To evaluate Navigation in real time requires the activity to be observed as it is being practiced. As a result, the auditing system does not work because it would lead to the distraction of the watch keeping officer. The important advantage of seeing things in real time would therefore be lost. Another method has to be used depending more upon the observation and record principle rather than interviewing. A Navigation Assessment therefore differs from an audit or inspection in various ways: It is conducted in real time. 2. It is longer, ideally up to 5 days 3. It is more detailed. 4. The majority of the assessment is actually observing policies being observed and procedures being implemented, (as this cannot be planned in advance by the officers being assessed they will revert to type which means they will just do things how they always did) 5. It is possible to observe equipment being operated and tested. (radars, ECDIS, AIS etc) 6. The pace of the assessment is governed by the activity (e.g. pre-departure checks require a minimum finite time to complete, to observe the 4-8 watch will take 4 hours minimum) 7. The time spent reviewing historical records can be reduced (as it is possible to see the records actually being created and hence confirm their correctness.) 8. The officers being assessed can ask questions at any time. 9. Any Corrective Action can commence immediately and be seen to be effective before the end of the assessment (reducing follow up for the ship owner / manager). Our Assessments are conducted based upon on the above principals and take into account the following but are not limited to,: • IMO MSC.1 Circ.1503 ECDIS – Guidance for good Practice; • The Nautical Institute publication Navigation Assessments; • MACI GUIDANCE NOTE 07/2017 (Rev 1) ; • Nautical Institute Industry Recommendations for ECDIS Familiarisation; • Guidelines For Voyage Planning - IMO Resolution A.893(21); • Nautical Institute Assessments Criteria; • OCIMF SIRE VIQ Chapter 4 If this service should be of interest for your vessels please advise.
