The findings demonstrate that the consistent execution of the ISM Code internal audit has a significant positive influence on improving the vessel's safety and operational integrity. This audit, carried out by the Designated Person Ashore (DPA), encompasses scheduling, conducting thorough inspections onboard, and reporting findings. Consistent auditing minimizes the risk of accidents at sea, enhances the compliance of all crew members with the applicable Safety Management Sistem (SMS), and ensures that the vessel operates safely and efficiently according to international standards. The study concludes that discipline in performing internal audits and the crew's adherence to SMS procedures are the primary keys to maintaining operational integrity. It is recommended that the company increase the frequency and quality of internal audits and crew training to ensure the vessel's safety and operational efficiency are consistently maintained.]]>
