As a marine insurer working closely with shipowners, managers and operators worldwide, NorthStandard sees first-hand how strong management systems translate into safer ships, better-protected crews and more resilient operations. Their membership adds an important voice to the DBCE community – one that understands risk, and the value of preventing it.
NorthStandard’s membership will support the DBCE community in several important ways:
Wider adoption of DryBMS. NorthStandard’s engagement supports the continued adoption of the Dry Bulk Management Standard (DryBMS) as the industry’s framework for operational excellence – helping more companies move beyond compliance towards genuine, measurable improvement.
Greater opportunities for engagement. Membership expands the opportunities for DBCE members to connect and collaborate with leading organisations that share a commitment to continuous improvement and innovation across the sector.
A stronger exchange of best practice. With insurers seeing the outcomes of both strong and weak management practices across thousands of vessels, NorthStandard is well placed to contribute to the sharing of best practices and lessons learned across the industry.
