Who We Are

PT Bharat Maritim Indonesia (BMI) is an Indonesian maritime crewing company providing professional, reliable, and deployment-ready seafarers for domestic and international shipping companies.

BMI was established to address a critical gap in the crewing industry: the need for faster deployment, stronger screening discipline, and greater operational reliability. We support ship owners and managers through a structured crewing system designed to reduce risk, ensure compliance, and maintain continuity of vessel operations.

Our Approach Proactive Readiness

Most crewing agencies operate reactively searching for candidates only after receiving a crew request. This approach often results in delays, mismatches, and operational uncertainty.

We proactively build, screen, and maintain a structured talent pool of qualified seafarers before demand arises. This allows us to respond faster, present more suitable candidates, and support ship owners with greater predictability.

By focusing on readiness rather than reaction, BMI helps clients minimize vessel downtime, reduce recruitment risk, and maintain consistent crewing standards across fleets.

Our Vision

To become Indonesia’s most reliable and ready to deploy crewing partner for global shipping companies, recognized for operational discipline, screening excellence, and long term partnership.


What Defines BMI

BMI’s operations are built on systems, not improvisation. Every stage of our crewing process is structured, documented, and continuously monitored. What defines BMI includes:

  • Structured Talent Pool

    A continuously maintained pool of pre-screened deck and engine officers categorized by vessel experience and readiness status.

  • Multi-Layer Screening System

    Each seafarer undergoes document verification, competency evaluation, English proficiency assessment, medical examination, and readiness scoring.

  • Operational Readiness Focus

    Crew preparation is aligned with vessel type, operational profile, and client requirements prior to deployment.

  • ISO 9001:2015 Certified Workflows

    Our processes follow ISO standards to ensure consistency, transparency, and accountability in every crewing decision.
