ClassNK innovation endorsement

Leading Classification Society ClassNK has expanded the scope of its Innovation Endorsement, the third-party certification service tailored to innovative technologies and initiatives. Through third-party certification, ClassNK supports innovations related to the environment, safety, and labor as well as the existing service for digital. Following the update of the Innovation Endorsement policy, the society has revised its “Guidelines for Digital Smart Ships” and “Environmental Guidelines”.

As companies pursue ESG management and the SDGs to realize a sustainable society, various innovations have been vital to resolve challenges. In order to support the spread of innovative technologies for which clear standards for evaluation are not likely to be established, ClassNK launched Innovation Endorsement in July 2020 to provide certification services regardless of existing requirements under the principle policies of “speed-focused”, “corporation with front runners”, and “certification responding to needs of clients and society”.

Based on the initial framework covering digital technology, ClassNK has so far issued Digital Smart Ship (DSS) notations for 70 ships and certified four solutions.

Having extended Innovation Endorsement, the society recognized the need for third-party certification on innovative technologies and initiatives are not limited to the digital sector. Hence, ClassNK has decided to expand the scope of Innovation Endorsement to the categories of “environment”, safety”, and “labor” on top of “digital”. Under the four categories expanded, the certification is conducted for “(1) Ships”, “(2) Products & Solutions” such as software and equipment, and “(3) Providers” providing products and solutions. The new policy for Innovation Endorsement has been described as “ClassNK – Innovation Endorsement Approach”.

Furthermore, following the policy update, the society has revised its Guidelines for Digital Smart Ships and Environmental Guidelines. Guidelines for Digital Smart Ship (Edition 2.0) stipulating class notations for the ships provided with systems utilizing digital technology (smart systems) has added target smart systems and established provisions for identifying smart systems by their level of technology advances. Environmental Guidelines (Edition 4.0) stipulating class notations for environmental measures on ships has established the notation for “Advanced Environmental Awareness (a-EA)” to indicate the advanced environmental measures are taken, in addition to existing environmental notations (EA). The guidelines also include the relevance of ships’ environmental measures to the SDGs in response to the growing interest to the SDGs.

Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Toshiro Arima, Corporate Officer, General Manager of Digital Transformation Center noted “Industry’s feedback on Innovation Endorsement has been positive, and we are on the right path to provide the third-party certification for innovative technologies and initiatives. I am glad to have expanded the scope of Innovation Endorsement to serve the industry and society better. The revised guidelines have further streamlined the scheme to certify the ships with digital and environmental innovations. We are now working on developing class notations related to the innovations on safety and labor as well as on strengthening verification methodology for products & solutions, and providers. ClassNK continues striving for supporting innovations with its expertise and collaboration with front runners.“
