The Supplier Admin Dashboard is a cutting-edge solution designed by Normec Verifavia to streamline the IHM Maintenance process for maritime suppliers and their sub-suppliers. This platform simplifies the creation and management of Material Declarations (MDs) and Suppliers Declaration of Conformity (SDoCs), ensuring compliance with EU (European Union) Regulation 1257/2013 and MEPC.379(80).
Suppliers submit sales/procurement data in any format or directly via API for seamless IT system integration.
Normec Verifavia engages with sub-suppliers/manufacturers to gather product declarations based on the provided data.
Order-specific and product-specific MDs and SDoCs are generated by Normec Verifavia on behalf of the suppliers, ensuring regulatory compliance with end client-accessible declarations.
The primary purpose is to declare the presence or absence of hazardous materials above the respective threshold values, as listed in the Regulation EU 1257/2013 and MEPC.379(80), in the supplied products. This ensures the vessels’ Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM) is properly updated and maintained.
To ensure a complete outline of materials supplied onboard, maritime suppliers may require the same documentation from downstream suppliers. This process ensures traceability and compliance throughout the supply chain.
Suppliers often face issues such as limited awareness of EU regulations, inefficient supply chains, mistakes in preparing correct documents, lack of resources or manpower, the extensive time required for preparation, proper filing and archiving challenges, and pressure from shipping companies to meet deadlines.
Normec Verifavia offers a “Suppliers Admin Dashboard” to streamline the process of generating declarations, reduce workload, and ensure compliance with relevant regulations and guidelines for both clients and their sub-suppliers.
The Supplier Admin Dashboard simplifies the generation of MDs and SDoCs, helps in efficient IHM maintenance, reduces the administrative burden on suppliers, and assists in meeting compliance requirements seamlessly.
Yes, by offering a catalogue review service, Normec Verifavia can evaluate a supplier’s products and inventory for potential hazardous materials, minimizing the need for extensive sampling and testing while ensuring compliance.
Suppliers can choose between generating MDs & SDoCs through the dashboard services for efficient IHM maintenance or engaging in a complete project partnership for comprehensive compliance support.
