Venu Shipping & Partners,a rapidly expanding ship management company based in Singapore with a diverse fleet of container ships and bulk carriers.
As their fleet grew quickly, ensuring that every vessel was being audited to the exact same high standard became a major challenge. Inconsistent report formats and a manual system for tracking findings made it difficult for management to get a clear, fleet-wide view of compliance.
Venu Shipping implemented PRIME Marine's Audit & Inspections Moduleto centralize and standardize their entire internal ISM/ISPS audit program.
100% Standardization
of all internal audit checklists and reports across the fleet.
30% Faster
closure of corrective actions due to automated tracking and reminders.
Gained a real-time, fleet-wide view
of all open findings and nonconformities.
Successfully scaled
their audit program from 5 to 20 vessels without increasing administrative headcount.
Venu Shippingwas in a period of impressive growth, but this created a new set of challenges for their QHSE department.
The core challenge was scalability and consistency. They needed a system that could ensure every audit, on every ship, was conducted and reported in the exact same way, and that all findings were tracked in one central place.
“When you have 5 ships, you can manage audits with a small, tight team. When you approach 20 ships, that manual system breaks down,”
says Mr. David Lim,QHSE Manager.
“We had different superintendents using slightly different versions of an Excel checklist. Findings were tracked in a separate spreadsheet. I couldn't easily see if a recurring issue on one vessel was also happening on others. We were losing the fleetwide perspective.”
Venu Shipping chose PRIME Marine to create a single, scalable platform for their entire audit program.
The platform allowed Venu Shipping's QHSE department to manage their growth with confidence.
1. Unbreakable Consistency:The centralized templates ensured 100% standardization of their audit process, providing management with clean, consistent data that could be reliably compared across the entire fleet.
2.Accelerated Improvement:The automated tracking and reminders for corrective actions led to a 30% faster closure rate for findings. "The system created a new level of accountability," Mr. Lim notes. "Nothing gets forgotten. The loop is always closed."
3. Strategic, Data-Driven Insight:The analytics dashboard turned their audit data into intelligence. "I can now spot trends in seconds," says Mr. Lim. "Last quarter, the dashboard showed us a small but recurring finding related to lifeboat maintenance across several of our bulk carriers. We were able to identify the root cause—a gap in our training—and implement a fleet-wide preventive action. We would have never caught that with our old system." completely eliminated the risk of costly and stressful immigration issues at the port of embarkation.
“PRIME Marine allowed us to scale our quality without scaling our administrative headcount. We now have a single source of truth for our entire audit program, which gives us the confidence to continue our growth, knowing our high standards are being maintained on every single vessel.”
