About

Pilot

Features
Read full description

Pilot-Guard is a global pilot safety network that enables the real-time exchange of safety-related information between organisations around the globe on non-compliant pilot transfer arrangements (nc-pta) of vessels. This is a major advancement for the safety of pilots in Pilot-Guard connected organisations. Detected nc-pta on vessels can be forwarded immediately to relevant authorities and partner organisations. If the next destination port of a vessel with a nc-pta is known, the pilots and authorities on location can be notified in advance by the Pilot-Guard system before the vessel arrives, so that appropriate safety measures can be taken at the next port. Defects that are repaired later are also registered and recorded for auditing and statistics purposes. As more organisations worldwide participate in Pilot-Guard, the information network expands, enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of pilot safety improvements.
