A Pertinent Comment to bear in Mind
“It is accepted that interested parties wish to assure their corporate reputations and they have a right to expect their contractor to use their best endeavors to attain that level of service…but …the standard of observations needs to be maintained”.
Additional Feedback to Consider
Ask the Question not what you think the Question is.
Utilise your experience, keep observations factual explanatory and not
interpretations.
Additional Feedback to Consider
“Yes” or “No” Answers by Inspectors:
As stand alone answers these can cause difficulties for the
owner/operator if these are without suitable qualification.
Additional Feedback to Consider
The Benefits of the Close out Meeting:
- The inclusion of additional comments after the inspection; the number of observations/comments do tend to increase once the final report comes out, this;
• Lowers morale onboard • Defeats the object of the close out meeting;• Increases the possibilities of misunderstandings;• Diminishes respect from those onboard
Additional Feedback to Consider
The use of Cameras onboard Tankers!
How do you use Yours?
