14 USE OF ACCREDITED VESSEL INSPECTORS Inspector accreditation launched in 2015 IMCA recognise the International Institute of Marine Surveying (IIMS) ship inspector accreditation scheme Vessel owners and clients have driven this change to the system Approaching 400 accredited vessel inspectors Following the principles of ISO Guidance for Auditing Management Systems The client can be assured that the vessel inspector is suitably competent (i.e. has the under pinning knowledge, experience and familiarisation required) for the type of vessel they are inspecting 14

15 PURPOSE OF ecmid A key tool to verify that ISM processes are being effectively applied onboard With the assurance it has been carried out by an AVI Audit reports can be shown to Flag as evidence of ISM/SMS checks. 15

16 WASH-UP IMCA plans further developments to the ecmid software, website, question sets and the accreditation scheme. Ultimately we all wish to see safety and how it s managed, on ALL ship types, improve. 16
