We provide specialized maritime consulting services designed to support shipowners, ship managers and maritime companies in maintaining high operational, safety and compliance standards.
Our services include:
We assist companies and vessels in preparing for RightShip inspections, both remotely and through physical attendance on board.
Our support includes a comprehensive review of vessel documentation, operational practices, safety management procedures and onboard readiness. We identify potential areas of concern, provide practical recommendations, and support the vessel and shore-based team throughout the preparation process.
Where required, our consultants can also attend the vessel during the physical inspection, providing professional guidance and assisting the crew and management team in ensuring an effective and well-organized inspection process.
We conduct internal audits of both shore-based offices and vessels to assess compliance with applicable company procedures, the Safety Management System (SMS), and relevant regulatory and industry requirements.
Our audits are carried out with a practical and objective approach, focusing not only on identifying non-conformities, but also on recognizing areas for improvement and strengthening the overall effectiveness of the management system.
Following each audit, we provide a clear report with findings, observations and practical recommendations to support timely corrective and preventive actions.
We provide Safety Management System (SMS) development, review and enhancement services in line with current RISQ requirements and applicable maritime industry standards.
Our approach is tailored to the company’s specific operations and fleet profile. We assist in developing and improving policies, procedures, forms and supporting documentation, while ensuring that the SMS remains practical, clearly structured and effectively implemented both ashore and on board.
Our objective is to assist companies in establishing an SMS that supports safe operations, regulatory compliance and continuous improvement, while meeting the expectations of modern industry vetting and inspection processes.
We provide professional post-inspection follow-up support, including the preparation and development of Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and Corrective and Preventive Action (CAPA) reports.

Our consulting services are based on practical maritime experience and are tailored to the individual needs of each company and vessel.
