Description: When starting to write this book, it was important to try to change the layout and content
of the subject matter. Key to this was not to make this book the same as others but to
engage readers and ask them questions so that they evaluate how their company operates
and compare it with the contents of the book.
This is not to say that this book gives a perfect answer to all questions, but it aims to
encourage ship managers or potential ship managers to question how their company’s
safety management system (SMS) operates and see if there is room for improvement. How
others perceive the proposed improvement may not always be as expected. There may be
opposition to the proposal, it may be discarded or it may be supported. The way that it is
presented will have a major impact of whether it is accepted or rejected.
The most important part of the ship management process is the personnel who
perform the work of ship managers. They need to be fully aware of all aspects of the ship
management model that the company operates and apply them.
A key component of this is the company’s SMS, which is required by the International
Safety Management (ISM) Code. This code is made mandatory by the Convention for
Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), 1974, as amended; the particular chapter to be consulted is
Chapter IX (Management for the safe operation of ships).
