Technical guidance

Document-readiness checklist for vessel teams

This checklist helps vessel teams gather the information needed for a clear scope discussion before survey, class, flag, owner or buyer review.

Vessel

Vessel identity

Prepare vessel name, IMO number where applicable and current or planned location.

Records

Foam records

Collect available foam certificates, supplier declarations, batch records or previous reports.

Recipient

Recipient route

Identify whether class, flag, owner, buyer, port, shipyard or another party will review the evidence.

Timing

Timing pressure

Share inspection, survey, handover, dry dock or vessel schedule deadlines early.

Scope confirmation

Every testing or inspection request is reviewed against the product, sample location, intended report use and receiving-party requirement. Prime Lab confirms the suitable scope, report wording, logistics and turnaround directly before work begins.

Review quality and standards context or verify a Prime Lab report.
