About Book My Survey

Our mission

Our mission is to make it simple to find and book the right marine surveyor, wherever a vessel is. Commissioning a survey in an unfamiliar port has long meant cold calls, scattered referrals, opaque pricing and uncertainty about credentials. Book My Survey ("BMS") brings the whole process online — from request to quotes to a tracked, documented booking.

Part of ShipSmith Group

BMS is part of ShipSmith Group, which builds technology and services for the maritime industry. BMS focuses specifically on the marine-survey market, bringing modern marketplace tooling — verification, transparent quoting, scheduling, reporting and invoicing — to a process that has traditionally been fragmented.

The problem we solve

Owners, managers, charterers, buyers, insurers and P&I clubs all need qualified surveyors, often at short notice and far from home. Independent surveyors, meanwhile, want a reliable way to be discovered and to win work that matches their expertise. BMS sits in the middle and serves both sides.

• Find qualified surveyors at any port, fast.
• Compare verified credentials, ratings, experience and price in one place.
• Keep requests, schedules, reports and invoices in a single audit trail.

A two-sided marketplace

BMS is a marketplace and intermediary — not a surveyor. We do not perform surveys ourselves. Surveyors on the platform are independent professionals, responsible for their own work, and customers engage them directly through the platform.

• For customers — describe your survey, receive quotes from verified surveyors who serve that port, compare, and book with confidence.
• For surveyors — get discovered by demand worldwide, set your own prices, manage your calendar, and build a verified reputation. See For Surveyors.

India-first, globally connected

BMS is built with an India-first focus, drawing on the country's deep pool of maritime talent, while serving customers and surveyors globally. Wherever a vessel calls, the goal is the same: a qualified, verified surveyor and a clear, accountable booking.
