Code of Ethics & Professional Conduct
Upholding absolute independence, technical integrity, and transparency in global maritime operations.
Our Commitment to Professional Integrity
As a completely independent technical maritime consultancy and surveying firm operating under strict European and Greek engineering oversight, PAMS is committed to executing all assignments with total objectivity and uncompromised ethical standards.
This Code of Ethics governs every technical survey, condition assessment, pre-purchase evaluation, and drydocking superintendency project we manage out of Metro Manila and globally.
Core Ethical Pillars
Our reputation is our most valuable asset. We maintain strict compliance boundaries to ensure every report we issue remains an indisputable, evidence-backed reference for owners, charterers, and underwriters.
1. Absolute Independence
We remain completely separate from any crewing, manning, or external commercial operations. We operate strictly as independent technical consultants, ensuring zero conflicts of interest.
2. Objective Reporting
Our technical findings are driven purely by verifiable physical evidence, log validations, and technical data. We report exact vessel conditions transparently, without modification.
3. Strict Confidentiality
All client data, project plans, construction studies, and survey records are held under tight confidentiality protocols. Information is never disclosed to unverified third parties.
4. Anti-Bribery & Corruption
We maintain a zero-tolerance policy for any form of corruption, bribery, or facilitation payments. Our surveyors operate with absolute financial and operational transparency.
