CrewShield

Every permit accounted for, from deck to office.

CrewShield records the permit, shows the crew the hazards and PPE that apply to the job in front of them, and keeps track of who approved what. Shore staff see the whole fleet.

Built on the vessel's own safety management system, not a generic checklist.

How a job gets its permit

The crew works through this on deck, on a phone or tablet, before the job starts.

Stage 1

Pick the task

Vessel type, work area, equipment, sub-task. The permit type follows from the task itself.

Stage 2

Read the hazards

Hazards, controls and required PPE are drawn from the task and the area it happens in.

Stage 3

Check the PPE

The camera checks what the crew is wearing against what the permit requires.

Stage 4

Get it approved

Goes to the approver with the hazards, PPE and equipment checks attached.

What it already covers

Task data is taken from the fleet's planned maintenance system and safety management manuals, so the wording matches what crew already work to.

It does not need a signal

A vessel mid-ocean has no connection, and a safety system that stops working there is no safety system. Everything runs on the device. When the vessel next has a connection, records go to the office on their own.

  • Permits are recorded and approved on board, offline
  • Records sync to the office when a connection appears
  • Nothing is overwritten from shore — the vessel holds its own record
  • The audit trail is append-only and keeps who approved what, and when
