NAPA Checklist

The right checklist, the right step, taken in the right order, recorded as it happens.

Paper checklists were never built for today’s operational reality: frequent crew rotations, complex and fast-changing compliance needs, and no room for error.

NAPA Checklist replaces static paper checklists with guided and automated workflows. It builds digital workflows tailored to your Safety Management System (SMS) requirements and guides the crew through each procedure in the correct order, with the current, compliance-approved checklist built into the task, so the right steps are followed and recorded automatically as the work is done. Completed tasks feed the NAPA Logbook, so the same information is entered once, not twice. Through NAPA Fleet Intelligence, shoreside teams see checklist status across the fleet in real time, with timestamped records ready for audits and inspections, always.


Trusted by industry leaders


One product, connected across ship and shore: The NAPA Checklist App on board, and the NAPA Checklist Editor on shore, inside NAPA Fleet Intelligence.

Key benefits

The NAPA Checklist App guides the work, not just records it. It walks the crew through every procedure step by step, with built-in logic that ensures nothing is skipped or out-of-order, following the current compliance-approved process. No training required. No ambiguity. Just clear, consistent execution, whether it’s a departure briefing, an emergency drill, or a watch handover. The intent is simple: make compliance easy, even under pressure or with less experienced crew on board.

  • Step-by-step guided workflows for daily operations and procedures.
  • Built-in decision support reduces human error.
  • Works across all vessel types and crew backgrounds.
  • Standardized process, regardless of who is on watch.

The NAPA Checklist Editor sits inside NAPA Fleet Intelligence. Shore-based teams can build, publish and update checklist templates from shoreside, and see completion status across the fleet in real time. No waiting for reports, no calling the ship, no chasing paper records after an incident. When a gap appears, shore can act before it becomes a deficiency.

  • Centrally manage templates for the entire fleet. Every ship works with the current, compliant version.
  • Push updates instantly to specific vessels or all ships.
  • Real-time visibility into onboard execution and status.
  • Audit-ready records, timestamped and attributed, retrievable instantly.

Compliance & audit readiness

Every completed checklist, every deviation, every sign-off is logged automatically and stored digitally. When an inspector arrives or an incident needs investigation, your records are complete, traceable, and ready, not scattered across filing cabinets on three different systems.

  • Removes risk of lost, incomplete, or illegible paper records
  • Full digital trail of completed actions and deviations
  • Faster and easier incident investigation
  • Easily integrates with your Safety Management System and supports compliance with ISM, SOLAS, and flag state requirements

Fleet standardization

Whether you operate five vessels or fifty, NAPA Checklist ensures every crew member follows the same procedures, using the same templates, updated from the same place. Onboarding new crew is faster. Process gaps become visible. And your operations become measurably more streamlined and consistent.

  • Same standards across ships, brands, and vessel classes
  • Data-driven insight into bottlenecks, deviations, and training gaps
  • Modular approach: start with navigational checklists, expand to ECR, maintenance, and more
  • Integrated with the broader NAPA ecosystem
