FAQ
Before you ask.
Who must comply with the ISPS Code?
The ISPS Code, made mandatory under SOLAS Chapter XI-2, applies to passenger ships and cargo ships of 500 gross tonnage and above on international voyages, mobile offshore drilling units, and the port facilities that serve them.
Do you approve ship or port facility security plans?
No. Ship security plans are approved by the flag Administration or a Recognised Security Organisation acting for it, and port facility security plans by the Designated Authority. We help you prepare the assessments and plans, test them and get ready for verification.
How often are security drills required?
Under the ISPS Code guidance, ship security drills are held at least every three months, and exercises at least once each calendar year with no more than 18 months between them. We design, facilitate and evaluate both.
What does an engagement cost?
It depends on the model. Projects such as a gap assessment or a single internal audit are quoted at a fixed fee for a fixed scope. Retained and co-sourced internal audit is billed as a retainer or per audit cycle, and investigations at a day rate. Tell us what you need and we will send a written proposal.
