ISPS Assurance

Ensuring compliance with the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code is essential for maintaining safe, secure and efficient port operations. At Teamwork Security and Training Services, our ISPS Assurance services are designed to give you confidence that your port facility, terminal, or maritime operation remains fully compliant, audit-ready, and resilient against evolving security threats.

What is ISPS Assurance?

ISPS Assurance goes beyond basic compliance. It is a proactive, structured approach to reviewing, maintaining and improving your security framework in line with regulatory requirements and industry best practice. Our service ensures that your Port Facility Security Plan (PFSP), procedures and operational controls are not only compliant but effective in real-world conditions.

Our Approach

We work closely with your organisation to deliver a tailored assurance programme that fits your operational needs. Our experienced consultants bring extensive maritime security expertise and practical insight to every engagement.

Our ISPS Assurance services include:

• Independent ISPS audits and gap analysis
  Detailed reviews of your current security arrangements against ISPS requirements and Department for Transport expectations.
• Port Facility Security Plan (PFSP) reviews
  Ensuring your documentation is accurate, up to date, and aligned with operational practices, working with the PFSO.
• On-site inspections and compliance checks
  Verifying that procedures are correctly implemented and understood by personnel.
• Security exercise design and evaluation
  Testing your response to incidents through realistic scenarios and structured debriefs.
