Biofouling Management Implementation (Internal and External Niches) Description
2 Types of Records – Planned versus Contingency Record
Once a profile is complete (Niche, Action, Interval definition, BMP & AFC docs, NB. check profile at Dry-dock cycle), a user only updates the Record Book with 1 of 2 types of Records:
Planned Record – Always defined in Biofouling Management, for known regular actions like a 60 month Dry-dock cycle
Contingency Record – For broader and variable activities that are job or situation specific – e.g. an inspection before entry into New Zealand. Selected when making a new record and can NOT be for a Planned activity/niche
