Today's lesson from history: Blockbuster ... Waited. Watched. Disappeared.
Netflix ... Acted. Adapted. Dominated.

Some businesses are still waiting, watching and hoping AI will settle down.

The ones that act now, get the foundations right and move with purpose will be the ones that pull ahead.

These are the sentiments of Kai Henderson - our data and AI specialist - and it's definitely worth a conversation with him to find out how Marex can help.

Don't be the Blockbuster of your sector.

Go-to expert maritime knowledge and guidance gurus.
It's quite the title, but we've adopted it from the words of Simon Jessel from Aberdeenshire Council Harbours.

To explain, what he said in full was:
“Marex is, and continues to be, Aberdeenshire Council Harbours go-to expert maritime knowledge and guidance gurus. Their skillset and experience have proven to be of great assistance to us in their role as our appointed Designated Person for all things Port Marine Safety Code-related. We hope to continue that relationship in support of our duty holders and harbour officers alike.”

We totally appreciate the great feedback. With Victoria and Wayne attending the ports for a quayside visit and then Donna carrying out the audit and reporting back to councillors at the recent harbour sub-committee meeting, we're happy with the guru title!

One of our clients - a UKCS operator - wanted to reduce emissions and prepare for future autonomous operations by chartering hybrid battery‑diesel vessels to support its offshore activities.

They asked us if we could assess the risks and mitigations for hybrid vessels operating inside the 500m zone.

Of course we could... and here is how we did it >>https://www.mmass.co.uk/projects/enabling-safe-hybrid-vessel-operations-in-the-500m-zone

Looking to charter a vessel to conduct your lifting operations?

Marex provides comprehensive vessel crane assurance to help you manage risk and maintain safety.

Lifting operations in hazardous offshore environments require absolute precision and technical reliability. Our specialists provide an in-depth assessment to ensure your chartered vessels are fit for purpose and fully compliant with industry standards.

We review the core technical details, including:

🏗️ make, model and manufacturer

🏗️ boom length and year of manufacture

🏗️ maximum operating radius and SWL

Our process also involves a rigorous check of all safety documentation. We verify everything from maintenance records and load test results to "Reports of Thorough Examination" (ROTE) and certifications for wire ropes and loose lifting gear.

By identifying potential issues early, we help you make sure your offshore operations stay safe and compliant.

Hot on the heels of our successful re-accreditation for ISO 45001 is ... a successful re-accreditation for ISO 14001.

Accreditations provide evidence that we consistently deliver.

Increasingly as we continue our transition journey, working in Europe and beyond, we’re being asked about ISO 14001 and 45001.

♻️ ISO 14001 is an international standard designed to help organisations improve their environmental performance through more efficient use of resources and reduction of waste, gaining a competitive advantage and the trust of stakeholders.

🦺 ISO 45001 is an international standard for health and safety at work, enabling organisations to provide safe and healthy workplaces by reducing the risks of work-related injury. It demonstrates our commitment to the health, safety and wellbeing of the team and will enhance our resilience and performance.

A big thank you to British Standard Institutions auditor Charis Gray for making the audit challenging and enjoyable, and to our own Samantha Duncan for being instrumental in leading successful audits and raising the bar on Marex performance.

And a nod to Kai Henderson for introducing data science and AI into our environmental processes, providing not only visibility of our carbon footprint but also opportunities for carbon offset.

MD Wayne Henderson said: "It is vital for the future development of the business that Marex focuses on continual improvement in Quality, Health, Safety and Environmental.

"These improvements are paying dividends. Not only is the business stronger but we are taking the opportunity to share the Marex improvements with our customers to continually add value to their business."

As Marex continues to develop its capability in AI and Data Science the next challenge will be achieving 42001. Watch this space...

A recent The CIPD in Scotland conference got our finance & administration manager Samantha Duncan thinking about the difference between raising a workforce that can think strategically, and one that can’t think beyond the output of a prompt.

If AI is dealing with ALL administrative work, how are humans going to learn the ways of the workplace?
