The Irish Branch of The Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers is pleased to announce that it is hosting a Seminar on ISPS and Electronic Solutions for Shipping Documentation on Thursday, 14th October, 2010 in Dublin.
The first session deals with the implications of the International Ship and Port Facility Guide (ISPS) for Ships and Ports from both a Shipowners viewpoint and from a Port Authorities viewpoint. The ISPS developed in the wake of the 9/11 Twin Towers disaster, when it was realised that if aeroplanes could be used as weapons, so could ships and following a series of international meetings a code was agreed and implemented in 2004.
The second session is a presentation by Electronic Shipping Solutions (ESS) illustrating their development of modernising document processes in international trade, by replacing paper documents with electronic documents (eDocs).
Ess was established in 2003 to provide eDoc services which enable international trade participants to better manage and transact the documents required for operations, legal compliance and Custom purposes, such as Bills of Lading, Certificates of Origin and Safety Data Sheets. ESS is a privately owned company whose investors were chosen so as to ensure the neutrality of the Company.
The Company will outline the manner in which their systems have been successfully implemented and adopted by a number of Oil Companies and the progress they are making with other trades.
This Seminar will be of great benefit to everyone involved in shipping and transport.
