Ali Idrissi
Founder & Independent Marine Surveyor
Navigating the Waves of Excellence, One Survey at a Time.
Ali Idrissi founded AIMS with extensive maritime experience. He began his career conducting vessel surveys and cargo inspections before expanding into petrochemical product blending for traders. His background encompasses quality assurance and regulatory compliance across supply chain operations. Today he personally handles every survey instruction, emphasizing integrity, precision, and customer satisfaction.
AIMS is a one-person practice by design. There is no dispatcher, no junior standing in, no report signed off by someone who wasn't on-site. When you instruct AIMS, you are instructing Ali, and he is the one who attends the vessel, writes the findings, and answers the follow-up call.

Every survey follows the professional standards and best practice referenced by IIMS and IACS classification societies, and meets the objectivity expected by P&I Clubs and marine insurers. AIMS is an independent practice and is not itself a classification society or P&I Club.
One Name on Every Report
No account manager, no rotating roster of surveyors: just one accountable person, from instruction to report.
One Point of Contact
You deal directly with Ali, from the first phone call to the final report. Nothing gets handed off between departments or lost between people.
Independence & Objectivity
No affiliation to any shipowner, charterer or cargo interest. Findings are reported exactly as observed, never adjusted for convenience.
Hands-On, Every File
Every instruction gets the same personal attention on-site and at the desk, with nothing delegated to someone who wasn't there.
