The Ship's Manifest of Services
Eleven complete services — everything a vessel and its owners need, managed from one bridge.
Personnel Management Services
The crew is the soul of a ship — and represents over 50% of a vessel's operating costs. YMS handles training, appraisals, salary administration through offshore facilities and Flag State licensing. We supply Officers and Ratings primarily from the Indian Sub-continent and the Philippines, with the flexibility to crew bulk carriers, container vessels, tankers and other vessel types.
Technical Management Services
Maintenance, repairs, and safety & security systems aligned with international regulations. We assign experienced superintendents, supervise shipyard periods, coordinate vettings and implement audits — keeping your vessel in class and in service.
Voyage (Commercial) Management Services
Shore-based support for charter contracts: voyage instructions, cargo guidance, economic speed optimisation, weather routing and port arrangements — so every voyage earns its keep.
Procurement of Stores & Spares
Dedicated buyers, volume discounts through our global vendor network, and full logistics coordination for supplies and bunkers — value delivered to the gangway.
H & M Insurance and P & I Services
Marine insurance placement and claims handling through established broker networks — Hull & Machinery cover and P&I arrangements managed on your behalf.
Legal Assistance & Support Services
Both internal and external legal counsel teams with combined expertise in maritime and commercial matters — advice and representation whenever you need it.

Over fifteen specialised survey and inspection services, including:
- Condition surveys

Financials, Accounting & Budgeting
We develop annual operating budgets, maintain strict cost controls and monitor expenditure deviations — every dirham and dollar accounted for.
Management Information & Reporting
Management, technical, maintenance, performance and financial reports delivered to owners on schedule — a clear view of the fleet from your desk.
Safety, Quality & Environmental Assurance
ISO 9000/14000 compliant management systems and full ISM Code procedures, implemented and audited — safe ships, clean seas.
Special Projects Management
Training programmes, contract management and tug & barge operations — when the job doesn't fit a standard mould, we manage it as a special project.
