SMS Setup & Implementation

A Safety Management System your ship and shore teams can use.

Make the system work onboard.

We help new and existing ship managers build a Safety Management System (SMS) around their fleet and daily operations.

From review to implementation

  • Compare existing procedures with actual shipboard practice.

  • Define responsibilities, reporting routes and emergency arrangements.

  • Develop working procedures, forms and checklists.

  • Guide familiarisation and review how the system is used.

What you receive

A gap review, agreed documentation and a staged implementation plan. Support is coordinated with your Designated Person Ashore (DPA), Company Security Officer (CSO) and vessel teams.

System development and internal review support preparation for external verification; they do not themselves provide certification.

Frequently asked questions

Can you improve an existing SMS?
Yes. We review current procedures and shipboard use, then agree the changes needed for your fleet.
