In addition to the servicing fees it’s the unexpected expenses for transportation and overtime at local servicing stations as well as all the hidden costs of the resources used to find and select servicing locations, make bookings, and handle administration and follow-up. With the world’s largest maritime safety servicing network, VIKING can help you get the most of your safety equipment portfolio. We offer long-term solutions that feature clear and truly fixed prices – yet with extra flexibility during the contract period. Buy back option for those with older liferaft portfolios or where there are other brands than VIKING on board, it may be an advantage to replace them with new VIKING liferafts through a buy back option. Newer, same-brand liferafts make planning and servicing easier, and can reduce transportation costs. If you need to replace a significant number of liferafts, you can pay a one-time fee at the start of the contract, or distribute the costs throughout the contract period. n Truly fixed prices without hidden costs n Transportation, overtime and HRU replacement included n Transparent pricing and simplified invoicing 72011-02-11T05:32:02+01:00http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/VikingLife/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/?Page=8http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/VikingLife/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/?Page=8The VIKING advantage:2011-02-11T05:32:02+01:00http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/VikingLife/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/?Page=9http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/VikingLife/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/?Page=9Protecting people and business Fixed price liferaft exchange When fast turnaround is essential Is it better to own or rent liferafts? actually, there’s a third alternative that brings you the best of both worlds. It’s called Liferaft exchange and combines a fixed annual fee with complete peace-of-mind services. Liferaft exchange can be suitable for operators who need a fast turnaround time and can supply timely notification. In addition, it can reduce transportation costs, for example in connection with barge transportation. for your convenience, we exchange liferafts at the pier or warehouse. How it works at the start of the contract, existing VIKING liferafts are added to an exchange pool, and any non-VIKING liferafts are replaced to ensure simplified, cost-efficient servicing. to replace the liferafts you can choose to: n purchase new liferafts or n pay an annual fee for VIKING-owned liferafts pricing of our five-year contracts is based on the number and type of liferafts on board. the newer they are and the more you have, the lower the price. When the contract expires after 5 years, you own the original number of liferafts you brought into the exchange pool and can choose among the following options: n Renew the contract for another 5 years n purchase the VIKING-owned liferafts on board n Return the VIKING-owned liferafts on board If two five-year terms have passed, you own all the liferafts without further costs. Of course, it’s a VIKING solution. So we’ve built in flexible options to give you extra freedom during the contract period and upon expiry. n Quality manufacturer with control over the entire process n Dedicated network of servicing stations stocked with spare parts n Proven track record in the marine safety industry 92011-02-11T05:32:02+01:00http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/VikingLife/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/?Page=10http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/VikingLife/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/?Page=10Let VIKING’s experts manage your service Service booking n n n n find appropriate station Book service Coordinate service with multiple partners Keep focus on ship schedule Follow up n evaluate performance n monitor invoices Station monitoring n Rate servicing station performance n Inspect stations The VIKING advantage:2011-02-11T05:32:02+01:00http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/VikingLife/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/?Page=11http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/VikingLife/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/VIKINGShipownerAgreement/?Page=11Protecting people and business VIKING Managed Service Global safety servicing of all products and brands from a local point of contact VIKING’s unique network makes it possible for us to cover all your servicing needs from a single point of contact at your local VIKING branch office.
