This data is useful, but incomplete. An IMS will usually only show the specific reason for an incident occurring, rather than including all the underlying issues that lead up to that point. In other words, while you may be able to fix an individual incident,  you are   not solving the root of the problem and it may occur again in the same way . Hilo can help you improve your maritime safety by using a fully comprehensive dataset: the key aspect to producing useful fleet risk management data analysis. The starting point is the data you have, but don’t use to its full potential. Look Beyond Your IMS The first thing is to look beyond the traditional data source—your IMS. There are 2 other significant types of data available: Vetting/audit data Defec...
