Reviewer 3 Report
The authors are doing good work trying to improve maritime safety in Indonesia, however, it needs significant improvement before it can be accepted.
First of all the literature review is very poor. There have been many studies published on the topic of safety key performance indicators such as
- BIMCO The shipping KPI standard
- Banda et al. 2016 A method for extracting key performance indicators from maritime safety management norms.
- Hjellik and Saetrevik 2020 Can survey measures predict KPI of safety? Forntiers in Pschycology.
-Gavalas et al 2022 Assessing KPI in the shipbuilding industry Marine Policy and Management

And many others
As such the study is already on shaky grounds. As a result, the suggested KPIs are poor. How do they comply with the classical SMART criteria (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound?)
The abstract needs improvement, it took me a while to realise what is Perla.
I can see the originality, but the quality of the article needs to be substantially improved before the paper can be accepted.
The language is poor and requires significant improvements.

Reviewer 4 Report
Given the level of safety in the fleet described, the article is very important. In the absence of a commitment to implementing IMO principles and ideas (e.g. ISM-Code, STCW 95) in the traditional fleet, any study proposing methods for implementing safety principles and evaluating the results of these activities is important as it allows for a scientific analysis of the changes taking place in the fleet in the field of safety and allows for reasonable changes to be made to the proposed method as a result of the experience gained.
