IACS QSCS END-USER WORKSHOP

Wednesday 7th November 2012 - 09:00 to 15:00 hrs

Indian Register of Shipping, 52A, Adi Shankaracharya Marg, Opp. Powai Lake, Powai, Mumbai, 400 072 India

Since 1 January 2011 the audit and assessment of compliance with the QSCS has been carried out by independent Accredited Certification Bodies (ACB's).

Having now been in operation for nearly two years and given the proven benefits resulting from previous end user workshops, IACS will convene the 2012 workshop between its Members and their ACB's to reflect on their joint experiences of the scheme and to discuss any possible adjustments deemed appropriate to ensure it continues to meet fully the demands and needs of all stakeholders for a robust and consistent scheme of certification of its members.

The purpose of this workshop therefore is to share openly, the experiences to date, in order to further develop and enhance the scheme.

IACS will also be inviting flag administrations, Classification Societies, ACBs and other interested stakeholders that might have attended previous end user workshops to participate in this 2012 workshop in Mumbai.

Further details of this event can be obtained from Peter Williams, IACS Quality Secretary, at the address shown below.
