Reasons why to choose To Be Certified

We have many more, if you are interested.

Shipowners & Operators

- Reduction of the high cost for the certification of ships since most of the Recognized Organizations or Classification Societies work with intermediaries. This situation may causes the increment of prices since they must cover the percentage of said intermediary. With us, you will work directly with the Head Office.


- By having the opportunity to work directly with the Recognized Organization/Classification Society Head Offices, any delay on services will be minimized because it should not be channeled through an intermediary that might affect the response time.

Recognized Organizations

- Low number of direct clients since most of the marketing is done by an intermediary or field surveyor leading to the dependence on them to obtain new clients.

- Little margin of discount by having to consider the commission given to the intermediaries. By having direct clients, you can accommodate to the demand of the industry.

- Unfair competition with other Recognized Organizations/Classification Societies that can give a higher discount percentage leading to the lost of new clients.

Representatives

- Limitation of services based on the authorizations obtained by the different Flag States. By having a portal like this, you could expand your services as you will be able to offer the certification of any vessel regardless of the Flag.

- Limitation in the possibility of comparing prices or too much time spent when having to contact each of the possible Recognized Organizations and/or Classification Societies. This platform will consolidate all the necessary information in a single portal resulting in saving time and money.
