Ship Management

BBMS offers total quality management to all owners seeking a unique and personal service in every aspect of vessel management and operation. Foremost in our working philosophy is a firm commitment to safe and efficient ship management and operation which adheres to the demands of local and international operational legislation and regulations, whilst acting responsibly towards the protection of marine environment. Responsibility is vested both in our ship and shore based personnel, who perform within clearly defined areas. Masters and crew have responsibility for technical and safety matters on board, while BBMS office staff monitors these aspects in details. Such monitoring is achieved through regular visits to each managed vessel as well as a thorough analysis of documentation received, in order to maintain effective channels of communication with sea-going personnel and to ensure that technical information and company policies are properly relayed, understood and complied with. Strict follow-up procedures ensure maximum benefit is gained from such monitoring.

Reports of ship visits together with operating cost figures are relayed to owners with a view to optimizing their investments within latest ship management techniques. BBMS regulations, navigational instructions, health and safety and environmental codes and circular letters are regularly revised to incorporate new legislation and advice from the shipping industry. BBMS commercial awareness proves invaluable too with regard to the effective trading of vessels, while our specialist staff is active in all types of hull and machinery and P&I work. Our quality certification allows us to negotiate improved rates and accomplish better liability risk management on behalf of our clients.

BBMS list of interrelated activities allows us to tailor ship management solutions to suit the needs of every owner and every ship with the promise of optimum performance at a realistic cost.
