Whats in it for owners, operators and managers?
BIMCO’s Shipping KPI System aims to be an indispensable and trusted tool of performance measurement for all ship owners, operators and managers – without compromising their commercial data.
Key benefits of the Shipping KPI system:
- it can boost performance of company, fleet and ship
- it provides an efficient communication platform for ship operational performance
- it can increase transparency requirements within the shipping world
Angus Frew, Secretary General of BIMCO, said “The shipping KPI system is unique and valuable to our industry – and we will ensure it continues to be run by industry for industry.”
To ensure this happens two committees consisting of BIMCO and Shipping KPI members have been created. The groups will be meeting for the first time in September 2015 to discuss areas of developments and continued progression of the system for users.
Continued effort is crucial to improve the system and to make it relevant to the industry’s needs. Regular updates by members on their fleet, company and ships will increase the importance of a good performance management system.
This in turn can translate into financial gains for companies by reducing fuel bills, ship and fleet operations. These are just some benefits the industry can gain from using an up to date system. Transparency on issues facing the industry will also drive policy and benchmark.
