Three core disciplines, one accountable team

Everything we do on a vessel falls under one of three disciplines: technical, operations and crewing. Most owners hand us all three; some start with one and widen the scope later. Each discipline has a named lead per vessel, but they sit in one team and share one picture of the ship.

Technical management

The ship as a machine: maintenance, drydocking, surveys, class and budget.

  • New-building supervision: plan approval, yard attendance, trials and delivery
  • Planned maintenance system, kept honest by on-board attendance
  • Drydock and repair specification, tendering and yard supervision. We attend in person
  • Class and statutory survey planning, so nothing expires at the wrong moment
  • Condition and performance monitoring: hull, machinery, fuel
  • Running-cost budget, and early warning when it drifts
  • Spares, stores and lubricants through fleet-scale contracts

Operations management

The ship as a business: voyage support, safety and compliance, vetting, insurance and claims.

  • The safety management system under ISM, security under ISPS: audited, drilled, lived
  • Vetting and inspection readiness: RightShip, SIRE and OVID, flag state and Port State Control
  • Voyage support: routing, bunker calls, stowage and cargo-securing review
  • Environmental compliance, MARPOL, EEXI and CII, managed as a trading issue
  • Insurance, P&I and claims handling
  • Incident investigation, with lessons actually fed back to the fleet

Crewing management

The people on board: recruitment, training, travel, payroll and retention.

  • Recruitment and selection of officers and ratings, matched to vessel type and trade
  • Training and certification, including type-specific needs: DP, passenger crowd control, cargo securing
  • Crew changes planned around the trading pattern, not the calendar
  • Payroll, allotments and full MLC compliance
  • Retention work: familiar officers return to the same vessels, and it shows in the ship's condition
  • Welfare and communication with families ashore

Also available

Inspections, consultancy and commercial support

Four services that owners take on their own, without a full management mandate. Each is run by the same superintendents and managers who look after our managed fleet.

Start where it makes sense

Modules can be taken separately: crewing-only or technical-only mandates are common entry points, and the scope widens as trust builds.
