How SOLAS Compliance Works

Fire Detection & Alarm Systems

Fire detection and alarm systems must be tested and maintained per SOLAS Chapter II-2 to ensure early fire discovery and crew notification. MarineInspection manages inspection schedules for smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual call points and control panels with photo documentation of detector conditions and functionality verification — tracking quarterly testing, zone coverage per SOLAS spacing requirements and backup power supply verification.

  • Smoke detector testing with photo documentation
  • Heat detector verification across all zones
  • Manual call point checks on schedule
  • Control panel functionality and backup power verification
SOLAS Chapter III

Lifeboat & Liferaft Inspection Management

Life-saving appliances must remain operational and ready for emergency use per SOLAS Chapter III. MarineInspection schedules weekly visual inspections, monthly engine tests and quarterly launching drills with digital checklists documenting crew participation and equipment functionality. Liferaft servicing tracking maintains annual servicing station records, hydrostatic release unit expiration dates and emergency equipment inventory — with EPIRB and SART self-tests and battery expiration tracking.

  • Weekly lifeboat visual inspections with photo evidence
  • Monthly engine testing and davit checks
  • Quarterly launching drills with crew participation records
  • Annual liferaft servicing and HRU expiry tracking
STCW & Emergency Readiness

Crew Training & Drill Management

Crew safety training and emergency drill documentation ensures all seafarers maintain required STCW certifications and demonstrate competency in fire fighting, life-saving equipment operation and emergency response. MarineInspection tracks Basic Safety Training, Advanced Fire Fighting, Proficiency in Survival Craft and Medical First Aid certificates with expiration alerts 90, 60 and 30 days before renewal deadlines — plus vessel familiarization for new crew within two weeks of joining per SOLAS regulation III/19.2.2.

  • STCW certification tracking with automatic expiration alerts
  • Emergency drill documentation — fire, abandon ship, damage control
  • Vessel familiarization records for new crew members
  • Training matrix with attendance registers and performance assessments

MarineInspection uses automated schedules, guided checklists and photo documentation to track all SOLAS fire-safety equipment, including detectors, alarms, extinguishers, pumps and firefighting gear. It generates corrective actions and maintains complete audit trails for inspections and Port State Control.

Digital checklists standardize every inspection so no detector, extinguisher or fire door is skipped. Photo evidence proves equipment condition, deficiencies automatically become corrective-action tasks with owners and due dates, and test histories build a complete audit trail — eliminating missed test cycles and paperwork errors that lead to PSC findings.
