We work between the shore office and the gangway — matching qualified seafarers to vessels, and making sure every document, endorsement and certificate is in order before they board.
Navkamakhya Shipping Services Pvt. Ltd. is a ship management company. Our core specialization is crew management for shipowners and ship operators. Our work centres on the practical, unglamorous discipline that keeps a vessel legally and safely crewed: verifying certificates against flag and STCW requirements, tracking sign-on and sign-off timelines, and keeping communication open between seafarer, principal and manning office.
We keep our process auditable. Every stage of a crew change — from initial sourcing through to disembarkation — is logged, so our principals always know where a candidate stands.
Responsiveness at scale. Crew changes rarely happen on a convenient timeline — a relief officer falls ill, a port call moves forward, a contract needs urgent extension. We keep a working bench of screened candidates so we can respond within hours, not days.
Documentation is where crewing goes wrong. COC/COP validity, medical certificates, visas, flag endorsements, STCW compliance — each is checked against the specific vessel's flag and trade before a seafarer is proposed, not after.
We measure ourselves the way our principals do: on-time sign-ons, clean documentation, low crew-change failure rates, and seafarers who are properly briefed before they join.
