Comité International Radio-Maritime

What is CIRM? CIRM (Comité International Radio-Maritime) is a non-profit trade association, est. 1928 We have over 100 members from across the global marine electronics industry Our technical scope is navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems Our current Board members:

CIRM’s technical scope of interest Navigational equipment and systems Radiocommunications and GMDSS Electronic charts and systems, ECDIS Automatic Identification System (AIS) Voyage Data Recorders (VDR) LRIT and satellite-enabled tracking systems

What does CIRM do? Represent the interests of the marine electronics industry on an international basis Co-ordinate the views and actions of members in resolving regulatory issues Provide technical and industrial advice to the international regulatory organisations Provide a specialist information service for members Provide a private forum for members to exchange information and business opportunity Enable members to participate in the development of international regulations and standards affecting their products and services.

International Maritime Organisation

About IMO IMO “is the United Nations specialized agency responsible for the safety and security of shipping and the prevention of marine pollution by ships” IMO regulates global shipping through international conventions such as SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea) and MARPOL (Pollution Prevention) IMO also regulates related safety systems such as the GMDSS (Global Maritime Distress & Safety System) IMO develops Performance Standards, which outline the minimum performance requirements for navigation and communication equipment.

Membership of IMO IMO currently has 171 Member States and three Associate Members There are 65 intergovernmental organizations (IGOs) which have signed agreements of cooperation with IMO There are 77 international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in consultative status to IMO Role is to contribute, within their field of competence, to the work of IMO Organisations in this category include BIMCO, IACS, and CIRM.

The role of CIRM at IMO

The role of CIRM at IMO As an NGO in consultative status to IMO, we are expected to contribute to IMO’s work - within our field of competence The IMO bodies of most relevance to CIRM are the Maritime Safety Committee (MSC) and the Sub-Committee on Navigation, Communication and Search & Rescue (NCSR) CIRM attends these meetings and contributes to the work (submitting or commenting on input papers, participating in Working Groups, etc.) In this way our members provide valuable technical expertise to IMO, whilst participating directly in the development of international regulations and standards affecting their products and services.

Developments

CIRM developments Recent achievements Worked with other organizations to secure a 12-month extension of the updating deadline for ECDIS Established the CIRM User Feedback Forum, in collaboration with The Nautical Institute Work in progress Draft Standard on Software Maintenance of Shipboard Equipment Draft Guidelines on Annual Testing of ECDIS Future work? Guidelines on Use of Non-Approved Electronic Equipment on the Bridge

IMO developments Work in progress E-navigation outputs Modernization of the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) Guidelines on Cyber Risk Management Future work Guidelines on standardised modes of operation, S-Mode

Other industry developments Development of the VDES (VHF Data Exchange System) Integrated Communications System (ICS) equipment standard Bridge Alert Management (BAM) equipment standard

Where is the industry heading?

What are the trends? Increasing demand for ship-to-shore data exchange Shift from remote maintenance towards full remote control Shift from periodic data upload/download to continuous online services Increasing demand for higher internet bandwidth on board Increasing use of wireless devices on board (BYOD “Bring Your Own Device”)

What are the trends? (continued) Increasing integration of bridge equipment Further development of the INS Integration of navigation and communication data/systems Integration of navigation with automation and control Move towards greater standardisation of equipment HMIs across manufacturers Cyber security is the hot topic!

IMO needs input The future of ship navigation will be shaped by various stakeholders, including: Flag States Shipowner associations Mariner associations (Masters, Pilots, etc.) Classification societies and standards-setting bodies like IEC, ITU and ISO Manufacturers and service providers (through CIRM) The effectiveness of CIRM‘s input papers to IMO depends on contributions from our members: > participation in CIRM working groups and preparation meetings > participation in IEC/ISO working groups and IMO meetings To improve contributions, CIRM established working relationships with shipowner associations like BIMCO and user associations like The Nautical Institute, to share inputs from members and obtain better results.

Summary Whilst IMO is responsible for regulation of the shipping industry, the Organization heavily relies on contributions and guidance from industry CIRM is a key industry association having a role in guiding IMO CIRM relies on the input of our members – active members such as Raytheon Anschütz support CIRM by sending technical experts to Working Groups Future technical challenges (e-navigation, automation, unmanned ships, etc.) will only be resolved successfully if the various industry stakeholders work together through their associations, in and around IMO This will ensure that future technical concepts and the accompanying regulatory frameworks meet the needs of mariners and shipowners.
