Vessel-Check - Aquatic Biosecurity Risk Management ToolInvasive marine pests are a threat to the biosecurity of aquatic environments, fisheries and other maritime industries. The pathway is often through the biofouling of a vessel's hullThis risk is expected to increase over the next 30 years as global shipping increases significantlyThe economic impact of managing established pests could be substantial. It is far more cost-effective to prevent the invasion rather than attempting to eradicate or manage the pest after it is establishedCurrently, there is a lack of connectivity between authorities with the documentation of biofouling information which, in some cases, is quite antiquatedVessel Check is a cloud-based, risk reporting tool that centralises the storage of biosecurity data and management actions. It provides a consistent, transparent and automated risk calculation of a vessel's biosecurity risk in-line with IMO guidelines.Vessel Check reduces the risk of a marine pest invasion by raising pre-border awareness and education, improves reporting efficiency for vessels and regulators alike, and allows each authority to customise in accordance with their regulationsVessel-Check Users•Biosecurity Regulators -Environmental management agencies -Government -Defence -Ports -Oil & Gas Companies•Maritime Industry -Vessel Owners -Vessel Operators & Agents -Service providers (Inspections, Cleaning, Paint Companies Etc.)Regulator Benefits•Reduced risk of IMS transfer into a jurisdiction•Ability to optimise the allocation of resources for high risk vessels.•Business intelligence supporting budgeting and response preparation•Ability to assess a jurisdiction's overall risk profile•OHS benefits -i.e. minimise on ground exposure for staff to only priority vessels•Good governance•Clear regulatory definitionVessel Owner Benefits•Minimise regulatory interaction time•Transparent regulatory requirements•Reduced duplication of data entry•..
