ISPS/ISM Audits Internal ISM/ISPS audits for companies according to the specifications established by the company’s ISM and ISPS manual. The ship is audited for compliance with mandatory ISM/ISPS standards. The audit includes inspection of the ship and documents as required by the ISM/ISPS Code, interviews with onboard personnel, and the conduct of fire/ship drills to assess the overall performance of the crew and their knowledge of safety procedures.

The training program is developed with various courses derived from the analysis of current maritime threats, the capabilities of major criminal and terrorist groups, their devices and tactics, and the measures to be employed to deter, stop, and mitigate terrorist and piracy attacks and the illicit trafficking of drugs in the maritime environment. The training program will provide practical knowledge of current and evolving maritime threats and how to develop and manage a Maritime Force Interdiction Plan (MFIP).
