6 January 2003

1 The Maritime Safety Committee, at its seventy-sixth session (2 to 13 December 2002), adopted the annexed Guidance for the operational use of Integrated Bridge Systems (IBS), which has been developed to support the safe operational use of an IBS by promoting procedures necessary to ensure adequate knowledge of system functions for Mode Awareness, Situational Awareness and Workload Management in addition to traditional seamanship.

2 The aim of the Guidance is to define the basis for minimum criteria on the operation, training and quality control for Integrated Bridge Systems. This Guidance is applicable to the operation of ships fitted with Integrated Bridge Systems (IBS), which include Integrated Navigation Systems INS (B) or (C), as per resolution MSC.86(70).

3 Member Governments are invited to bring this Guidance to the attention of all parties concerned.

GUIDANCE FOR THE OPERATIONAL USE OF INTEGRATED BRIDGE SYSTEMS

Introduction

This guidance supports the safe operational use of an IBS by promoting procedures necessary to ensure adequate knowledge of system functions for Mode Awareness, Situational Awareness and Workload Management in addition to traditional seamanship.

The aim is to define the basis for minimum criteria on the operation, training and quality control for Integrated Bridge Systems.

1 Scope

This guidance is relevant to the operation of ships fitted with Integrated Bridge Systems (IBS), as per resolution MSC.64(67), annex 1, which include Integrated Navigation Systems INS (B) or (C), as per resolution MSC.86(70).

2 Definitions

For the purpose of this guidance, the following definitions apply.

3 Bridge Procedures

Failure analysis

The failure analysis aims to demonstrate that the system has a fail-to-safe functionality. The failure effects and their consequences are assessed for the installed components.

 

The bridge procedures, provided for the ship, should implement the functions, capabilities and limitations of the installed IBS. Especially the documentation should include clear instructions about conditions under which automatic control functions may be used or not.


Note: Automatic steering may only be useful where precise manoeuvring is required, if the automatic control system supports the required precision, e.g. by considering speed through water for rudder control.

The Company should have personnel ashore capable of supervising, training and evaluating the company Operational Procedures and operational use of the Integrated Bridge System.

4 Implementing New Technology

A modified IBS should only be put into normal operation after successful functional testing. During all new equipment or new version tests, the procedure to switch to manual or emergency control should be obvious. The minimum requirement to conduct the procedure is one command per device. The procedure should be documented. A new system should not be operated before new manuals have been delivered and studied.

The test should start in a safe area with the technically simplest mode. The technical level can be increased when the crew is familiar with the mode and when the crew has ensured that the desired operational safety is achieved.

The officers should be aware of which area and which mode testing is allowed. Regular meetings should be held to plan and decide fixed time periods for the proceedings of the technical tests and operational training within the Company limits documented in the Vessel Operating Manual (VOM).

5 Training Programme

 

The company, in co-operation with the relevant manufacturers, should establish a training programme for all officers which have operational duties involving the IBS.
