Consultancy Services

Professionals with long, proven experience in new-building projects, planned maintenance, repair and dry-docking, and regulatory compliance, available to owners who need the expertise without the full management contract.

New building

BBMS's new-building professionals can:

  • Provide technical and commercial expertise in preparing, reviewing and evaluating the ship-building contract and ship specification
  • Provide technical supervision for new buildings, covering plan approval, design, tendering and construction

Planned maintenance

BBMS uses a sophisticated fleet-management system built for efficiency in maintenance work, spare-parts handling, documentation, and event handling in line with company and statutory requirements. The same system gives clients timely information on the operation and management of their vessels through a secure online log-in.

Repair, maintenance and dry-docking

Through qualitative vendor evaluation, BBMS employs accredited engineering and ship-repair companies worldwide, so competent and guaranteed repair work is available wherever a ship is on her voyage, with the least delay.

BBMS technical experts hold a thorough record of marine and technical service companies around the world, and secure contracts with the best dry-docking yards in the Middle East. That gives an edge on competitive cost and lasting results for dry-dockings and major repairs, reflected in budget compliance, off-hire time and unfailing commitments to charterers and clients.

Internal audits and inspections

Regular internal ISM, ISO and ISPS audits and safety inspections are conducted on board by qualified, experienced superintendents using up-to-date guidelines and current best industry practice. The BBMS office follows up to make sure observations and findings are addressed from the roots to prevent recurrence, and is itself subject to internal and external audits.

Managed ships are prepared at any time for Port State Control, Flag State, oil-major, USCG and other regulatory inspections and audits.

Training

Company representatives run training workshops on board to explain policies and procedures to ship staff. BBMS also runs workshops ashore, where crews meet the office personally, hear professionals from the maritime field on current topics, and take value-added training courses.
