What database is used to document coating system inspections, maintenance and repairs?

• A. CCIMS
• B. NISDS
• C. SAMS
• D. NAVIS

Answer: (A)

Where coating system data is stored and managed is what this item tests. CCIMS is the database used to document coating system inspections, maintenance and repairs. It keeps a centralized record of inspection results, coating condition notes, maintenance actions taken, repairs performed, materials used, and the dates of all work. With that complete history, you can track coating life, plan future inspections and re-coats, manage workload and budgeting, and demonstrate compliance during reviews. While other databases handle different shipboard data, they don’t provide the focused coating lifecycle documentation that CCIMS offers.
