It takes more than one skilful person to operate an international shipping management company. As a business owner of one, you have to know that I have over a hundred employees to make this operation possible. I am grateful for this business opportunity because it lets me fulfil my dreams of manning a ship. But, I am old now. I no longer have the strength to be in the ship and sail it to the shore of the neighbouring countries. It was a fun experience, though. I did that for 13 years! Now, I only help with the operations in the comfort of my office as a valued advisor for the shipping company I have worked for.
Every year, we welcome new seamen who have little to no experience in manning a ship. As their new employer, we make sure that they are trained enough before they can be left unattended during a shipping operation. We need more than our senior seamen to teach and train them. So, my proposed solution was to get a service from a third-party ship management company that can overlook and monitor our operations at the same time, prepare our new seamen in a standard operating procedure! I hired MSI Ship Management in Singapore to provide us with a team of experienced seafarers who can train and overlook our technical operations as well.
In this review, you will find out how it was a successful solution.
Strong implementation of systemic operations
On our first meeting with the people at MSI Ship Management, we allowed them to convince us to choose them among the many companies that we can hire in Singapore and other countries. What had stuck with me during their presentation was their plan on how they can improve our operations. It was their Comprehensive Ship Management. In this plan, it includes the organisation of the financial needs of our operation and the training they will implement to ensure the safe and efficient operations of our services. They said that we need their experienced team of seafarers to ensure that we can still operate our tanker ships in the present until the future.
After the meeting with MSI Ship Management company, I had given my thoughts about them and the members of the board agreed with me. So, it was then we decided that they are the company that we need! Here are some notable qualities that they have shown during the charter that stood out to me.
Expert knowledge
To admit, I only have a little knowledge of how the shipping industry works today. I am sure there is plenty of new equipment and technology that smoothens the operations. From the reports I have been getting from the team that is with the people of MSI, they are learning a lot. I believe that they have an expert level of knowledge that helps in the management of our international operations and new trainees!
Proactive status updates
Communication is vital in these types of operations. You will always want to know if everything is going according to plan with your tanker ship management or any commercial ship operations. Well, I am impressed by the proactiveness of our team during their charter. I believed that they learned it from the team of MSI Ship Management company. They have done the same by updating us about the training that they are conducting with our new seamen.
Full report after the charter
A lot of people find reporting and documenting a tedious job, and I am one of them. But, I know that they are a crucial part of any operation. It is a tool that you can use to know which aspect of your international shipping operations that needs to be improved. Thanks to the team of MSI Ship Management company, the board members and I were able to determine which technical aspects of our operations needed more attention. I know that if we did not address that today, we would be suffering in the future. So, I am thankful for these assessment reports from MSI!
It is difficult to find a reliable company that can embody these qualities. A good thing is that we have found them all in the MSI Ship Management company. I am looking forward to working with them again in the future!
Why do I recommend MSI?
If you want a dedicated team of experienced seafarers to help you to improve your ship management, then I highly recommend MSI Ship Management company! They have tanker ship management services that you can rely on. Also, you can expect to receive the same service that we have received from them.
