training there are certainly many opportunities for improvement but some are real innovations.


Largely to our credit, here are the improvements of the application of the ISM code with their dates of creation and which are in use all around the world today:


- Original SMS for a shipping company and easily adaptable to the Offshore industry (1996)


- Logical increase of the requirements of the code one by one (since 2000)


- Determining procedure of “critical equipment and systems” (2000) used with our agreement by the OCIMF training working group


- Procedure : “feedback” and Continuous Improvement (1997)


- Integrated System of Contingency Plans (1997)


- Integration in the SMS of the ship’s operation procedure in degraded mode (2000)


- Fatigue measurement in the marine survey (2000). NB: following our participation in an IMO study

- Combined Safety and Security drills and exercises Process (2003)


- Adaptation of Passenger Vessel Evacuation Signalisation process to other Vessels such as the offshore industry and quickly set up by TRANSOCEAN one of the major offshore companies (2000)


- Criteria for evaluation of an SMS (KPI) and the safety culture with a dashboard to follow up (2006 improved in 2016)


- Creation of ‘an Integrated System E3S (Environment, Safety, Security and Customer Satisfaction 2005)


- ISM and ISPS original training courses through the IMO TCP program: Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Mauritania, Cameroon, Republic of Congo


- Creation of an “ISM port” ® (IMO motivated): application of the ISM philosophy in a port


- ISM / ISPS documentation greatly reduced thanks to the use of logigrams (2009)


- 3 x ISM level training courses for all personnel of shipping companies: from the CEO to the AB (DPA-Officers – internal auditors - Crew members awareness)


- Training of experts and ISM consultant (since 2000 in France and especially in UK via the IIMS course - nearly 200


experts trained and certified in 15 years - recognized as a university degree)


- Training of Maritime insurers and lawyers (2002 improved 2012)


- Intelligent integration of ISM criteria into inspections of offshore internal associations (2005)


- Simultaneous bilingual ISM and ISPS training courses in Eastern Europe (2012) on behalf the European Commission .


- Original training courses for STCW V / 2 § 1 to 5 (in french and english)


- Creation of an original PSO training course (Port Security Officer) in addition to other training and teaching in Eastern Europe (Ukraine, Moldova, Kazakhstan, Georgia)


All these innovations are now well used in shipping companies or ports and we are proud of that.


IN CONCLUSION The mandatory ISM certification was made to counter, or try to, the « bad » shipowners which was necessary, but the rest of our industry is starting to understand that just average is no longer enough (sometimes they are under average). The quality culture that begins with the respect of standards and regulations will eventually be the solution. The expert who audits, advises, trains and innovates is the key element for success in the future.


Today, our industry is beginning to consider that management and resulting audits form an entirety and therefore we need to integrate conventional inspections with audits carried out under the ISM and not to maintain periodic visits apart from the intermediate audits.
