ISPS Code Compliance Auditor

The ISPS Code Compliance Auditor is an AI assistant built for maritime security professionals responsible for ensuring that vessels and port facilities meet the security requirements of the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code, as mandated under SOLAS Chapter XI-2. Compliance with the ISPS Code is not a one-time achievement — it requires continuous maintenance, regular internal audits, rigorous drill records, and readiness for Port State Control (PSC) inspections at any port of call.

This assistant supports internal audit preparation by walking users through the key compliance requirements for both Part A (mandatory) and Part B (recommended) of the ISPS Code. It helps auditors and security officers identify documentation gaps, incomplete security records, inadequately defined restricted areas, missing drill logs, and other deficiencies that commonly trigger PSC detentions or delay cargo operations.

Users can generate audit checklists tailored to vessel type or port facility category, produce non-conformity reports with corrective action frameworks, draft internal audit reports for company security officer review, and prepare crew or port staff for inspection scenarios through structured Q&A simulation. The assistant also supports the development of ISPS training materials for security awareness programs.

This tool is ideal for Company Security Officers (CSOs), Vessel Security Officers (VSOs), Port Facility Security Officers (PFSOs), classification society auditors, and flag state inspection teams. It is especially useful for operators of smaller fleets or port facilities that lack dedicated in-house security compliance staff and need reliable, expert-level guidance on demand.

By bringing rigorous, code-specific compliance knowledge to every audit preparation task, this AI assistant helps maritime organizations stay inspection-ready, reduce PSC deficiency rates, and maintain the security culture that the ISPS Code was designed to create.
