NAPA Checklist

Safer, faster and smoother operations with electronic work permits.

Replace time-consuming paper forms with a streamlined, error-resistant, easy-to-use digital system.


Trusted by industry leaders

Why digitalize checklists?

55% of accidents in the past 3 decades have happened during planned work. Often in high-risk spaces like oil tanks and holds, exposing the cracks in today’s permit to work systems. Done on paper, and good intentions, this outdated process leaves too much to chance. That’s why in 2024, NAPA reimagined the system, launching a digital Permit to Work solution that brings real-time visibility, smart guidance, and safer operations to every hazardous task onboard.

Key benefits

For Shipboard Crew

NAPA Checklist walks crew members through every procedure step by step, with built-in logic that ensures nothing is skipped or completed out of order. No training required. No ambiguity. Just clear, consistent execution, whether it’s a departure briefing, an emergency drill, or a watch handover.

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

For Shoreside Teams

Shore-based operations teams can create, edit, and publish checklist templates directly to the fleet, and see completion status in real time. No more wondering if procedures are being followed. No more chasing paper records after an incident.

  • Centrally manage templates for the entire fleet
  • Push updates instantly to specific vessels or all ships
  • Real-time visibility into onboard execution and status
  • Completed checklists available for review from shoreside

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 vessels.

  • Full digital trail of completed actions and deviations
  • Faster and easier incident investigation
  • Supports compliance with ISM, SOLAS, and flag state requirements
  • Removes risk of lost, incomplete, or illegible paper records

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 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
