For new builds:
Shipyards must obtain Material Declarations (MDs) and Supplier Declarations of Conformity (SDoCs) from their suppliers to create the Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM). The entire relevance assessment of products and subsequent data management, including document control, supplier support, addressing gaps, and preventing claims from shipowners, are the challenges we completely relieve you of when developing IHMs for new vessels. We only need a few basic data points from the newbuild projects and order information; we handle the rest for you.
Key performance indicators (KPIs) include:
- Only 10-20% of all order items for new buildings are IHM-relevant and require MDs and SDoCs from suppliers (we avoid unnecessary costs for the supply chain and focus on what really matters)
- Support for their suppliers included (up to one hour)
- Each supplier receives their own "landing page" for document management and provision.
- Ensuring document quality and maintaining responsibilities by reviewing all submitted supplier declarations.
- Targeted follow-up for hazardous material-containing components and parts with precise localization and quantification in our software (website, no installation required)
- Transparent and comprehensive reports with direct access to all supplier documents
- Avoidance of unnecessary IHM entries that make a ship appear to contain more hazardous materials than necessary (e.g. Printed Circuit Boards, taps, etc.)
- Reduction of shipyard-side costs by approximately 98%
- Certification on time
Our new-build IHMs were accepted by all classification societies and certified without any issues. The data is prepared in such a way that owners can continue the IHM maintenance in a targeted and straightforward manner.
