Safety management is only as good as the information behind it
A near-miss reported on Monday is only useful if someone acts on it before it becomes an incident in March.
Shipnet Safety gives crews a fast, consistent way to report what they see, and gives shore teams a clear line of sight into every vessel's safety record - incidents, inspections, corrective actions and certificates, all in one place instead of scattered across email and paper.

What is Shipnet Safety?
Shipnet Safety is the part of the Shipnet Platform that handles incident reporting, risk assessment, document control, and regulatory compliance across a fleet.
It's built around the day-to-day reality of running a safety management system: findings need investigating, corrective actions need owners and deadlines, and certificates have a habit of expiring at the worst possible moment.
Most of that work still happens in scattered spreadsheets and inboxes at a lot of shipping companies - which makes it hard to say with confidence, in the middle of an audit, exactly where things stand. Shipnet Safety exists to make that question easy to answer.
Because it sits inside Shipnet Solutions rather than beside it, a defect logged during an inspection doesn't need to be manually passed to the technical team - it's already visible to them.
From individual reports to fleet-wide awareness
A single incident report tells you what happened on one vessel, on one day. The real value comes from what happens when you can compare that report against everything else happening across the fleet.
With Shipnet Safety, that comparison becomes routine rather than a special project:
- see which vessels or vessel types are generating recurring findings
- track whether corrective actions are actually being closed, not just opened
- spot a compliance gap before the auditor does, not during the audit
What's inside Shipnet Safety:
- incident and near-miss reporting
- hazard identification and risk assessments
- corrective action tracking, from raised to closed
- safety observations and improvement initiatives
- SMS document management
- certificate and regulatory compliance monitoring

Where safety meets the rest of the ship
Very few safety findings stay purely a safety matter.
A worn guard rail is a maintenance job.
A missing permit-to-work record is a documentation problem.
A recurring near-miss on cargo handling might point to a training gap, not an equipment fault.
Shipnet Safety is connected to the parts of the platform that actually resolve these things.

Almost every shipping company already collects safety data
These include inspection reports, near-miss logs, and audit findings. Far fewer companies are able to do much with it, because the records sit in different formats, on different vessels, owned by different people.
That gap is where recurring problems hide.
The same defect showing up on three sister vessels six months apart isn't three unrelated events - it's a pattern. But you can only see a pattern if the underlying records are structured the same way and sit in the same place.
Shipnet Safety is built to close that gap: consistent reporting in, so pattern recognition and trend analysis are actually possible out the other end.

Built around how fleets actually operate
One ship, not four separate systems
Safety, maintenance, procurement and compliance aren't separate businesses - they're separate views of the same ship. Treating them as separate systems is exactly what creates the gaps that show up in audits.
Shipnet Safety is designed on that premise: information moves between departments because the underlying record is shared, not because someone remembered to forward an email.
Financial outcomes linked to operational events
Through ShipInspect, crew members can log an inspection or a near-miss from the deck, with photos attached, rather than writing it up from memory once they're back at a desk.
It works with limited or no connectivity, syncing once the vessel is back in range - so a finding made mid-voyage doesn't wait weeks to reach anyone ashore.

Where Shipnet Safety sits in the platform
Shipnet Safety
The safety and compliance record - incidents, risk, corrective actions, certificates
The mobile companion that gets inspections and findings off the vessel and into the record
Who uses it, and for what Lines
The same record serves everyone who needs it - nobody's chasing a version that someone else already updated
Vessel crews
Log incidents, near-misses and observations as they happen, without needing to be at a desk.
The DPA
Gets a fleet-wide view of open findings, overdue actions and certificate status - the questions an ISM audit actually asks.
Superintendents
Can see whether a safety finding has already been picked up as a maintenance job, or is still waiting.
Shore management
Can walk into an audit already knowing where the gaps are, instead of finding out live.
When compliance needs to go further than the safety file
For a lot of organisations, Shipnet Safety covers what's needed. Others are managing a heavier document load - multiple SMS revisions, fleet-wide policy rollouts, structured sign-off chains - or want to see compliance as something that spans documents, inspections, and workflow, not just incident records.
That's where

Frequently
Asked Questions
Common questions from teams evaluating safety management software.
What is Shipnet Safety?
Shipnet Safety is Shipnet's module for incident reporting, risk management, document control and regulatory compliance across a fleet, built into the wider Shipnet ONE platform rather than run as a separate system.
Is Shipnet Safety built around the ISM Code?
Yes. It supports the core requirements of a documented Safety Management System under the ISM Code, including the kind of visibility a Designated Person Ashore needs to demonstrate during an audit.
How is this different from just using safety management software?
Standalone safety software can log incidents perfectly well - what it usually can't do is show you when a safety finding has become a maintenance job, or a procurement request, because it isn't connected to those systems. That connection is the main thing Shipnet Safety adds.
Can a safety finding automatically become a maintenance task?
It can be linked directly, yes. A defect raised during an inspection can be picked up on the technical side without anyone manually re-entering it.
How do crews report incidents from the vessel?
Either directly in Shipnet, or through ShipInspect on a mobile device, which is built to work even when connectivity on board is limited.
Can we see safety trends across the whole fleet, not just one vessel?
Yes, through Shipnet Analytics and Helix - useful for spotting a recurring issue across sister vessels rather than treating each incident as a one-off.
Does this cover QHSE, or just safety incidents?
It covers the broader ground most fleets group under QHSE - document control, audit preparation, certificate tracking and continuous improvement, not only incident logging.
Where can crews and shore staff access it?
Through the Shipnet portal on web, and through ShipInspect on mobile for onboard use.
