    TMSA provides guidelines and tools for tanker management self-assessment. It is not a mandatory requirement. Companies can use TMSA to understand best practices, assess their performance, set targets for improvement, and develop plans to meet targets. Management commitment is needed to set targets, provide resources, motivate personnel, and monitor progress. While TMSA may increase workload and costs, it can also improve company performance if used properly. However, having TMSA procedures alone does not guarantee preventing incidents, which often involve failing to follow existing procedures.
