How to improve safety reporting
Incidents, observations and suggestions reach shore with evidence attached — triaged in a fleet safety inbox.
The industry problem
Under-reporting and delayed reporting weaken safety culture. Paper forms discourage near-miss reporting; shore learns too late.
The traditional approach
Paper incident forms; optional email to DPA; no structured near-miss or observation pipeline.
How WaterTightVM helps
Reporting is built for the crew app and the shore Safety Inbox:
- Incident workflow with attachments and PDF export
- Near-miss and observation capture without a separate spreadsheet
- Safety suggestions from crew to safety officers
- Fleet safety inbox for DPA review, assignment, and close-out
- Corrective actions that can raise PMS defects when work is needed
Crew report fast onboard (including offline); DPAs see structured cases ashore when vessels sync.
Frequently asked questions
Can crew report incidents on mobile?
