Abstract

Maritime (kepelautan) is matters related to manning, education, certification, authority, rights and seafarer’s obligations. In marine transportation activities, there are several main instruments that must be in place, namely transportation facilities (ships), transportation facilities providers (shipping companies / government), ship operator service providers (seafarer), certified seafarers / producers of seafarers (training institutions) and infrastructure, such as ports, channels, warehouses, and so on. The relationship between seafarers and seafarer certification (education and training institutions / government) and shipping companies is a concern in this study, especially in relation to the impact of many falsification of seafarer certificates, despite the implementation of an online database certification system that is centralized in Directorate General of Sea Transportation (DJPL). There are 3 (three) major problems that are still popular at this time, for instance unoriginal of seafarer certificates, unpaid seafarers or late receiving wages for more than 1 (one) wage period, and seafarers have a difficult time to find jobs on board. One of the available instruments to solve this problem is the intelligent transport system (ITS) architecture which is liable to be adopted in mapping the aspirations of marine transportation stakeholders, blockchain technology, such as decentralizing (one of the pillars / characteristics of blockchain technology) seafarer certificate database. A cost benefit analysis will be used in this study to obtain how much does it cost to improve the system and to see the benefit of the product.
