FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.

INTRODUCTION
IEC 62923-1 has been written in pursuit of IMO resolution MSC.302(87), to further detail the
technical requirements of bridge alert management and to enable testing of any equipment
against the requirements of bridge alert management.
Bridge alert management (BAM) is the IMO defined overall concept for the management,
handling and harmonized presentation of alerts on the bridge.
This document has been written in such a way that this form of alert management can be
applied ship wide, next to, and in cooperation with, cluster(s) on the bridge.
Individual equipment that applies the BAM principles uses
• harmonized states for its alerts,
• harmonized presentation for presentation of its alerts, and
• harmonized alert communications for
– communication with other equipment (VDR and equipment with more knowledge, as
applicable), and
– communication with a central alert management (CAM) system, if provided on board.
A CAM system, including its human machine interface(s) (HMI),
• uses harmonized states for its alerts,
• uses harmonized presentation for presentation of all alerts generated on the bridge,
• uses harmonized alert communications for communication with other equipment (VDR,
alert source equipment),
• provides the function to silence all audible alerts on the bridge, and
• provides the function to individually acknowledge all alerts generated on the bridge for
which additional decision support information is not required;
A CAM system may be standalone or combined with other equipment, for example in the case
of an integrated navigation system (INS).
All equipment that applies the BAM principles may provide intelligence to deal with the
processing of non-BAM "legacy" alarm communications for harmonized presentation at its
HMI.
This document provides the harmonization requirements.

MARITIME NAVIGATION AND RADIOCOMMUNICATION
EQUIPMENT AND SYSTEMS – BRIDGE ALERT MANAGEMENT –

Part 1: Operational and performance requirements,
methods of testing and required test results

1 Scope
This part of IEC 62923 specifies the operational and performance requirements, methods of
testing, and required test results for the bridge alert management (BAM) in support of IMO
resolution MSC.302(87). It is applicable to all alerts presented on and transferred to the
bridge.
NOTE All text of this document whose wording is identical to that of IMO resolution MSC.302(87) is printed in
italics, and the resolution and associated performance standard paragraph numbers are indicated in brackets.
(MSC.302/2) To enhance the safety of operation, the Performance standards given in
resolution MSC.302(87) provide requirements for the harmonized presentation and treatment
of alerts on the bridge and specify a central alert management (CAM) system.
Annex E provides guidance on design principles that, when applied, will achieve the desired
enhancement of safety.
(MSC.302/3) Module A (Clause 6) of this document describes the general concept of the BAM
and the presentation of alerts on the bridge equipment. Modules B (Clause 7) and D
(Clause 9) contain requirements for the CAM and the CAM-HMI. Module C (Clause 8)
describes the interface requirements for BAM.
BAM is a concept that imposes requirements on equipment that handles and presents alerts
on the bridge, including equipment that provides central alert management (CAM) system
functionalities.
• Equipment is BAM compliant if it meets Module A – Presentation and handling of alerts on
the bridge and Module C – Interfacing of this document.
• Equipment is CAM system compliant if it is BAM compliant equipment and, in addition,
meets Module B – Central alert management system functionality and Module D – System
and equipment documentation for CAM system of this document.
To support retrofitting a ship with BAM compliant equipment handling alert related
communication with remaining non-BAM compliant equipment (referred to as "legacy alert
sources"), this document includes guidance on how to interface BAM compliant equipment
with remaining devices that are not BAM compliant (see 4.4 and Annex H).
IEC 62923-2 provides standardized alert and cluster identifiers and other additional features.
