Our system can help you get started creating an SMS/SIP structure regardless of your operation.

Last week I had the privilege of attending and speaking at the USCG Sector Delaware Bay SPV Industry Night on the upcoming regulatory changes around Safety Management System (SMS) and the Streamlined Inspection Program (SIP). Recent events in the marine industry have triggered the Fire Safety IFR and this is accelerating the movement towards the requirement of SMS for SPV and PVs. Bringing a digital solution to the marine industry that supports the SMS/SIP is my top priority. I want to concentrate on what’s happening now and how we can prevent things from happening in the future, whether it’s a minor boating violation or something major safety-wise. We all have the same goal, and that’s boating safety. We, Vessel Vanguard, created our SMS/SIP support module with the goal of making it easy. Our system provides a custom SMS structure for ANY operator that can be formatted in MINUTES. Excited to be a part of the movement forward in this incredible industry. #uscg #pva #spv #sms #sip #safetymanagement #vesselvanguard #tugboats #barges #yachtsafety #trawlersafety
