Deadlines

Every date on the vessel, and every date you are missing

Deadlines are calculated from the dates documented on the vessel record — nothing is inferred. A certificate with no expiry date on file is shown as undocumented, not as in order. That distinction is the whole point of the view.

What is held per certificate

• · Certificate type, issuer and document number
• · Date of issue and date of expiry
• · Survey window: start and end
• · Next endorsement date
• · Whether the date is confirmed by a person or only read from a document

Alerts

Alerts are raised 90, 30 and 7 days before a deadline and are shown in the app. Where a date has been read from a document but not confirmed by a person, it is flagged as unconfirmed so you never plan a survey around a number nobody has checked.

Used across vessel types

The view is the same for every vessel; the pressure differs by trade.

• Tankers. Cargo-related certificates and survey windows usually sit tightest here.
• Bulk carriers. Long trading patterns make expiry dates fall away from home port.
• Container and general cargo. Frequent port calls mean more port state contact per certificate cycle.
• Passenger and ro-ro. Largest number of separate certificates per vessel in practice.
• Offshore and service vessels. Class and client-driven documentation tends to run alongside statutory dates.
• Fishing vessels. Smaller document sets, but the same consequence when a date is missed.
