Damage & loss surveys

Independent observations to help document reported cargo or marine damage and support a clear factual record for further review.

Damage documentation

Record the facts.
Support review.

When damage, shortage or loss is reported, a survey can document the visible condition and circumstances available at the time of attendance. ITS agrees the instructions and reporting scope with the appointing party.

  • Shortage and loss observations
  • Incident and claim investigation support
  • Photographic and factual records
  • Loss-prevention observations

Survey findings describe the observations and evidence available within the agreed scope; they are not a substitute for legal advice or a determination of liability.

02 / Describe

Share what happened, where it occurred and what has already been observed.
