Major Enhancements to IHM

With the HKC now in force (June 2025), shipowners face greater compliance pressure under EU SRR and IHM Part 1.

ShipServ simplifies compliance by combining AI detection, automated supplier workflows, and central dashboards for buyers, suppliers, and vessels — all in one platform.

Learn how d’Amico is leveraging IHM to simplify compliance and strengthen supplier management across its global fleet:


For Buyers

Enhanced IHM Reporting Dashboard

Expanded view with deeper supplier and vessel compliance data. It also leverages AI/data extraction to auto-populate key compliance fields directly from supplier MDs and SDoCs (e.g., MD/SDoC numbers, hazardous materials detected).

This provides greater transparency across fleets and operations, reduces manual data entry, accelerates reporting, and improves accuracy of compliance audits.

Vessel-Specific Dashboard Access

Each user’s dashboard, reports, and alerts are filtered to the specific vessels they own or are assigned to. This reduces noise and data exposure, enforces least-privilege access, and drives faster action by focusing each person on the vessels that matter to them—while preserving full oversight for authorised roles.

Revised Hazard Type Classification With Mandatory Justification

Both buyers and suppliers now work with an updated Hazard Type aligned directly with the Hazard/Materials Classification defined under IHM Part 1 Regulation. This improves accuracy of hazardous material identification, reduces false positives, and ensures reporting aligns with regulatory categories.

For both Buyers and Suppliers, it creates consistency across procurement, documentation, and vessel reporting, strengthening compliance confidence under EU SRR and HKC.
