We help our clients to find out whether their customer has managed the ship in accordance with the contract. Whether the claim/damage is avoidable; whether it complies with international standards such as the ISM Code; whether the damage to the cargo is only due to a maritime risk or poor management.

With more than 30 years of experience in shipping, our surveyors can quickly and correctly determine the cause of damage/claims and defend your rights.

To help our clients better understand their customers and therefore better determine rates, we offer the Ship Risk Profiling Service. Past loss record is only reactive, a prediction of how the ship will perform in future is critical. Such prediction can only be made after a proper on-site audit for the ships entered. We offer a pre/intermediate/follow up Risk Profiling Service to ensure that the identified risk is eliminated or that accident happened/mistakes are not repeated in the future, thus improve the loss rate, for both underwriters, Owners and managers.

Maintaining a minimum level of RS safety is crucial for bulk carriers. Therefore, we offer pre-inspections, in same manner carried out by Rightship inspectors to reduce the number of findings at the next RS inspection. Our auditors are familiar with the details of Rightship inspections and have inspected many vessels together with Rightship inspectors.

We know that managers are often very busy and do not have time to visit the ship from time to time. We offer this service as a cost and time efficient way to help managers. All our auditors are certified ISM/ISPS/MLC/ISO auditors.

We offer a last-chance claim review service: for damage/liability claims made against the client before the client pays, on a "no cure, no pay" basis, to help the client manage their loss exposure.

In order to achieve a higher success rate before loading, we strongly recommend that the hold is inspected before loading in order to identify areas for improvement, and thus to give the crew enough time to correct the findings and thus avoid serious losses such as later failures.
