What should be included in the documentation for the ASOG development process?

The documentation for the ASOG (Autonomous Systems Operations Group) development process should include a comprehensive vessel DP (Dynamic Positioning) FMEA (Failure Modes and Effects Analysis). This is crucial because a thorough FMEA outlines potential failure modes of the DP system, their causes, and effects on vessel operations. It ensures that safety considerations are integrated into the design and operational protocols. By addressing these aspects in detail, the documentation aids in risk assessment and helps improve the reliability and safety of the DP system during operations.

Including just the latest safety regulations would not provide the depth of analysis needed for understanding system vulnerabilities. Minimal operational details could lead to significant oversights regarding operational context and risk management. A list of all crew members, while important for operational integrity, does not contribute directly to the assessment and mitigation of risks associated with DP systems. Hence, having a comprehensive FMEA as part of the documentation is essential for ensuring thorough understanding and preparedness in the ASOG development process.
