Elements and Performance Criteria
- Comply with requirements for survey
- Complete inventory survey documentation is maintained and accessible to appropriate authorities.
- Applications for renewal of and extensions to certification are timely and ensure continuous validity.
- State of survey items and equipment (with respect to certificate conditions) reflect continuing effective programs of tests, checks and maintenance.
- Arrangements made for survey are timely and compliant.
- Survey certification reflects adherence to procedures where validity may be affected by damage, alterations or additions to the vessel or equipment.
- Determine the sequence of work required to restore and maintain mechanical plant
- Defined work sequence adheres to the overall maintenance plan specification.
- Maintenance activities are correctly planned.
- Sequence and scope of the planned work is complete and within the requirements of agreed timeframe.
- Activities are negotiated with skipper or owner to complete the work requirements to schedule, minimise downtime and reduce disruption to production schedules.
- Anticipation of restrictions and variances to work schedules are realistic and made at appropriate times.
- Action planned leads to the restoration of plant by the most suitable method consistent with available resources.
