How to manage Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM) with your IDEA YACHT software
The EU SRR & IMO HKC requirements regarding Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM) is a challenging subject to deal with, but the good news is that IDEA YACHT already supports you with handling IHM!
Using existing functionalities, IHM can be managed as follows:
• Tagged items can now be selected for reporting and other functionalities.
• When it comes to the handling of the required documentation, the easiest way is to simply attach all required documents e.g. SDOCs from suppliers, specific laboratory results, to the related item.
• More general documentation e.g. the IHM maintenance manual, can be handled with the existing Document Manager. This also applies to survey reports and certificates. which can be handled using the ‘Certificates’ feature within the ISM module.
• Finally, the ‘tags’ can also be applied to new items, which are obtained via the purchasing system.
The key step is to ensure the correct tagging of the related items, required functions such as reporting and document handling already exist.
Please contact our team (e-mail: support@idea-data.com), if you would like to know more about this function.
