ClassNK and Prevention at Sea announce strategic collaboration

(Posted on 16/02/26)

ClassNK and Prevention at Sea are pleased to announce a strategic collaboration aimed at delivering high quality Dry Bulk Management Standard (DryBMS) training to shipping companies worldwide.

This strategic collaboration is founded on a shared commitment to building awareness and understanding of the DryBMS framework.

Both parties have agreed to explore future synergies and expanded cooperation in related areas, including gap analysis and benchmarking of Safety Management Systems (SMS) against DryBMS requirements and other key maritime standards such as RightShip RISQ, SIRE, and TMSA.

The collaboration also envisages undertaking joint projects to support shipping companies in designing and implementing comprehensive compliance strategies aligned with DryBMS and other industry standards, as well as the development of mutually branded guidance materials.

The initiative reflects both organizations’ shared commitment to strengthening safety culture, operational excellence, and continuous improvement within the dry bulk sector.

By combining ClassNK’s global reach and technical authority with Prevention at Sea’s hands on compliance expertise, the partnership aims to deliver practical, tailored solutions to the needs of dry bulk operators.

Both organizations look forward to working closely with shipping companies to support safer, more resilient, and more sustainable dry bulk operations.

ClassNK, as a leading classification society, continues to support industry stakeholders through technical expertise, guidance, and initiatives that enhance safety, transparency, and performance across the maritime sector. This collaboration further strengthens ClassNK’s efforts to assist its customers in navigating evolving industry standards.

Founded in 2013, Prevention at Sea brings extensive experience in maritime compliance, auditing, and training, with a strong focus on practical implementation and the human element. As an established, the company supports shipping organizations in translating DryBMS requirements into effective onboard and shore based practices.
