IEC PAS 62923-101:2022 primarily provides support to other workgroups to include alert requirements in standards in line with Bridge Alert Management (BAM), and additionally provides support to designers to implement alert properties so that they conform with the BAM requirements. This document is applicable, and is intended to provide guidance, when the intention is to implement BAM according to IMO Resolution MSC.302(87). Based on the IMO decision to adopt the BAM Performance Standard MSC.302(87) as a high level leading umbrella standard for intended implementation of BAM, IMO resolved in MSC.302(87), 3.6, that in case of conflict with alert requirements in existing performance standards, MSC.302(87) takes precedence.

engines with a total over 15 kW power, and with rudders, sterndrives and water-jet drives;
— light duty steering systems, for small craft with a single outboard engine of 15 kW to 40 kW power;
— mini-jet steering systems, excluding personal watercraft.
NOTE Standard and light duty steering systems are mechanically interchangeable. A standard duty steering
system can be used on a craft designed for a light duty system. However, a light duty steering system cannot
be used on a craft that requires a standard duty steering system. Mini-jet steering systems are mechanically
differentiated from the previously mentioned systems and can only be used on mini-jet craft as defined in this
document.

IEC 63173-2:2022 the scope of secure communication between ship and shore (SECOM) includes interfaces (APIs) for data exchange (information services), information security measures to enable secure communication and interfaces for service discoverability. SECOM provides technical interoperability, where the same service interface is used for exchanging the information regardless of its operational use, up to the level of exchanging information securely online. Although designed for IHO S-100 based products, SECOM is technically payload agnostic and applicable also for other types of data.
Communication between SECOM information services for data exchange relies on IP based web services. The "last mile" links between a SECOM information service and the end-user application is not defined in this document, thus the communication technology between the vendor API and a ship/shore system can be non-IP based as well as IP based. The informative Annex D describes one such implementation of this. This allows different solutions between the service and shore/ship’s system/applications.
SECOM does not define physical layer or link layer for transport of data between SECOM information services, but requires that the transport supports IP communication. SECOM is applicable for both public (governmental) and private (business) services. SECOM is applicable for ship-shore and shore-ship communication, and can be used for ship-ship communication.

IEC PAS 61174-1:2021 specifies requirements, methods of testing and required test results for route plan exchange format (RTZ).
This PAS has been developed to improve interoperability between equipment implementing route plan exchange format by addressing issues uncovered in the original RTZ specification (Annex S of IEC 61174:2015), and in recognition of the fact that some manufacturers have identified a pressing business need to implement an improved and expanded version of the RTZ format.
It is intended to complement the original RTZ specification. This PAS provides a revised version 1.2 of the RTZ schema but retains the original version 1.0 of the schema unchanged. The intention is that compliance with this PAS can be achieved without compromising compliance with IEC 61174:2015.
