Uncrewed MaritimeConsulting Ltd.

Operator Toolkit Packs

USV Standard Operating Procedures Set

Eighteen operating procedures, a standing orders poster and a register that tracks revision dates.

What you get

Eighteen operating procedures for a small or medium uncrewed surface vessel, from preparing for sea to demobilisation, plus a control centre routine, handover of control, loss of communications and standing orders. Every procedure has purpose, scope, roles, pre-conditions, a step table, abort criteria and records. Includes a guide and index, a one-page standing orders poster and a SOP register workbook that tracks revision and review dates.

Why it is different

Written by a USV operations director from years of running remote and autonomous vessels for survey and defence clients. Original, anonymised and editable. Not a copy of anyone's manual.

Who it is for

USV builders and integrators writing a first operations manual; survey and inspection contractors adopting a USV; anyone who needs to show a client, insurer or regulator a credible procedure set this month.

What is in the download

  • Guide and index
  • 18 operating procedures (52 pages)
  • One-page standing orders poster
  • SOP register workbook (161 live formulas)

Common questions

What format is it supplied in?

Editable Word and Excel throughout. No PDFs you cannot change and no software to buy. The workbooks are live, so formulas recalculate as you fill them in.

Can I rebrand it and use it as my own?

Yes. The licence covers a single organisation for unlimited internal use, editable and rebrandable, and shareable with your employees and with contractors working on your behalf. Resale, redistribution or supply to another organisation as a product is not permitted.

Will the acceptance criteria match my vessel?

Acceptance criteria, limits and thresholds are deliberately left as "(enter)", so they point at your vessel specification, your alarm philosophy and your manufacturer data rather than carrying somebody else's numbers into your operation.

Can I get a refund if it is not what I need?

The packs are delivered as an immediate download, so sales are final and there is no refund for a change of mind. A corrupt, incomplete or unopenable file is fixed or refunded, and a pack materially different from what this site describes is refunded. Ask before you buy if you are not certain it fits.

Who can buy these?

The packs are business-to-business products, sold to companies, partnerships, public bodies and sole traders buying for their own operations. By buying one you confirm you are acting for the purposes of a business and not as a consumer, so the consumer cancellation rights that apply to consumer sales do not apply. If you are not buying on behalf of an organisation, get in touch rather than buying.

Sold business to business, to a single organisation. Templates and worked structures written from operating experience. Not legal, regulatory or classification advice; approval always rests with your flag administration, class society and client. Full licence and refund terms.
