3 Compliance of attending personnel

The attending personnel from an authorized service provider on board ships under Dutch flag, shall provide documented evidence indicating certification in accordance with paragraph 8.1 of the Resolution for the make(s) and type(s) of equipment to be worked on.

Depending on the configuration of the relevant equipment on board the above may result in more than one authorized service supplier or manufacturer being necessary.

3.1 Cases where the manufacturer is no longer in business or no longer provides technical support

Following paragraph 7.3 of the Resolution, in cases where the manufacturer is no longer in business or no longer provides technical support, the NSI accepts service providers, provided that the RO acting on behalf of the NSI is satisfied that they comply with chapter 7 of the Resolution and in addition the following is applicable:

  1. the personnel performing the maintenance and service has at least two years of servicing experience with different manufacturer's equipment; and

  2. service personnel has followed training on several manufacturer's equipment (at least two manufacturers); and

  3. The service provider shall maintain a record system which provides traceability of work carried out and parts used. All spare parts used shall preferably be original manufacturer's spare parts. If original spare parts are not available anymore, other parts may be used provided that such parts are at least equivalent to part to be replaced, such to the satisfaction of the attending surveyor of the RO. In cases where repairs are major, e.g. when a complete winch must be exchanged, any replacement equipment shall be certificated in accordance with the Marine Equipment Directive (2014/90/EC as amended)

In cases where the RO is not satisfied that the above conditions are fully met, subject service shall be witnessed by the surveyor of the RO, after case by case acceptance by the NSI.
