Bridge Resource Management
Bridge Resource Management or BRM was adopted in the early 1990s by the maritime industry as a safety and error management tool and has now become an integral part of the crew’s training. BRM makes use of all available resources including equipment, information, and human resources to achieve safe operations. BRM plays an important role in environments where human error can have devastating effects.
