INTERNATIONAL MARITIME SECURITY

INTRODUCTION Over the last decade, a need for maritime security has become necessary for merchant vessels. Piracy has become an increasing threat to many companies that transport goods through shipping. Companies also face threats inland such as striking, hijackings and weather conditions. This shows why we need security for transportation for goods by sea as well as inland.

IMS IMS offers security to vessels. Allow customers to constantly monitor their goods by RVMAC. Our drivers are trained and have the necessary skills to handle compromising situations. We create efficiency without compromising security.

IMS SERVICES At IMS, we take our job very seriously which is why we have a dedicated team that monitors all shipments and regularly updates you on where your goods are, time of arrival and shows regular security updates from our onsite ground team.

Inland transportation and protection When we arrive at the destination where the cargo is kept we first secure the perimeter using INTEGRATED GUARDING SOLUTIONS. This is a 3 step solution that involves: On-Site Guarding Remote Guarding Mobile Guarding

Onsite guarding This is done by the careful selection of Military Personal, Police Service officers, and independent contractors. All recruits have a 10-year service record that is verified by their respective nations. They have bonded with each other to improve team fluidity. This is a 24/7 service provided throughout the duration of the contract.

Remote guarding This is the use of cameras on the container, transport vehicle and anywhere else that is requested of us. This proves extremely useful as you can monitor the situation via tablet that is given to all customers. You get a real time feed of the surroundings and a peace of mind.

Mobile guarding There is an option for different types of transportation units used. With a wide variety of over 200 different vehicle sizes and amount of backup that will be available, you can quite literally have too much protection.

Securing the package Depending on the package size and transportation route we will ensure that sufficient protection is taken and that our guards and vehicles are equipped to take on an attack. We once again make sure that the routes taken are safe and that the weather patterns and the traffic is normal.

Transport to the harbour Being a transportation service to the harbor wouldn’t be very efficient if we didn’t secure all documents necessary for departure and arrival. You are constantly updated of our progress with the tablets which notifies you at set intervals of your choosing.

Load onto the ship While the goods are loaded a perimeter check is done and an interior sweep of the ship to ensure no vulnerability. Once the ship departs the cargo is checked every hour on the dot with spot inspections as well.

Ocean transportation and protection Many challenges can occur on the high seas, which is why we have a satellite monitoring weather patterns and the surrounding waters. The ocean route that is taken is given a rating of how dangerous the path is and how likely it will be to secure the goods onboard and you may choose what package you would like.

Weather conditions The weather is predictable to a certain degree but on long voyages over a week it may be unclear what the seas may hold. This is why we have a satellite feeding us and your tablet live data on how the seas conditions and weather will go about. We then alter the course if allowed and ensure that everything is right.

piracy Piracy is a major threat in open waters as they have the element of surprise. Which is why we have guards on a schedule to make sure they are spotted on time. Our guards are well trained and capable of taking the threat down. Once the ship enters the harbour again the same procedure is followed and cargo is transported to the warehouse and signed over.
