Propeller / Shaft Audit App turns propeller / shaft audits into a scored, repeatable programme. Auditors score each propeller / shaft against weighted criteria, attach photo evidence, and track corrective actions to verified closure across every site. Managers compare propeller / shaft audit scores across sites and track every corrective action to closure.
Propeller / Shaft Audit App runs a scored propeller shaft audit covering propeller blades, pitch, and rope guard, stern tube seal and oil condition, shaft bearings and wear-down, shaft alignment and coupling bolts, and cathodic protection and anodes, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, propeller shaft findings live on paper and in chat. A propeller shaft fault such as blade damage or cavitation erosion slips through. An audit then means rebuilding propeller shaft evidence from folders.
Propeller / Shaft Audit App keeps one record per propeller shaft and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each propeller shaft finding is tracked to verified closure. Marine engineers and class surveyors see propeller shaft completion and overdue actions across the transport, logistics & warehousing portfolio. Every propeller shaft record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in a Propeller / Shaft Audit App?
A comprehensive propeller shaft audit covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Audit propeller and shaft condition with structured scoring, photo evidence, and corrective action tracking. Your audit should include sections for propeller blades, pitch, and rope guard; stern tube seal and oil condition; and shaft bearings and wear-down, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every audit finding is traceable.
How to Use Propeller / Shaft Audit App
A scored audit only helps if every auditor scores the same way. Follow these steps to run a propeller / shaft audit:
Open the propeller / shaft audit template, which carries weighted criteria and a scoring scheme.
Score each propeller / shaft against the criteria and attach photo evidence for any non-conformance.
Let the app calculate the section and overall propeller / shaft score so the site is comparable to others.
Raise a corrective action for each failed propeller / shaft criterion with an owner and due date.
Sign off the propeller / shaft audit. The scorecard and branded report generate automatically.
What Does a Propeller Shaft Audit Cover?
A propeller shaft audit scores condition against class survey standards and shaft alignment requirements, checking propeller blades, pitch, and rope guard, stern tube seal and oil condition, shaft bearings and wear-down, shaft alignment and coupling bolts, cathodic protection and anodes, and vibration and shaft earthing. Each propeller shaft finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the failing point. So the propeller shaft audit becomes a traceable evidence pack, not an ageing spreadsheet.

What Propeller / Shaft Teams Fix When Audits Are Scored the Same Way Everywhere
Propeller / Shaft work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Propeller / Shaft Audit App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
You find out about a propeller / shaft problem from a complaint
There is no live view of propeller / shaft status across sites. The first sign that something failed on the propeller / shaft is a client call or an incident, by which point the problem is already public.
Problem
No live view of propeller / shaft status across sites
Propeller / Shaft problems surface as complaints, not as data
Propeller / Shaft risk is invisible until it becomes an incident
Solution
Live multi-site dashboard of propeller / shaft completion and open issues
Propeller / Shaft risk scoring flags sites trending to failure
Configurable dashboards filter propeller / shaft results by site and date
Every auditor scores the propeller / shaft audit differently, so sites cannot be compared
One auditor is strict, another is lenient, and a third skips sections. The propeller / shaft audit scores come back, but leadership cannot tell whether a low score means a weak site or a tough auditor.
Problem
Propeller / Shaft scoring depends on which auditor showed up
Propeller / shaft sections get skipped with no record
Propeller / Shaft scores are not comparable across sites
Solution
Weighted propeller / shaft criteria baked into the audit template
Mandatory propeller / shaft sections, so nothing is skipped
Comparable propeller / shaft scores that roll up across the estate
Propeller / Shaft issues get logged, then quietly forgotten
A failed item is noted during a routine audit. Nobody owns it, no date is set, and the next audit finds the same problem on the same propeller / shaft. The propeller / shaft issue is logged, not closed.
Problem
Failed propeller / shaft items noted but never assigned to anyone
No due date on a propeller / shaft fix, so nothing is ever overdue
The propeller / shaft fix is marked done with no proof it happened
Solution
Every failed propeller / shaft item becomes an owned corrective action
Closure needs a propeller / shaft verification photo before sign-off
Overdue actions escalate automatically
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Propeller / Shaft Audit App check on a propeller shaft audit?
Propeller / Shaft Audit App runs a scored propeller shaft audit against class survey standards and shaft alignment requirements, checking propeller blades, pitch, and rope guard, stern tube seal and oil condition, shaft bearings and wear-down, shaft alignment and coupling bolts, and cathodic protection and anodes. Each finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the point it fails, then routed to an owner with a deadline. It stays open until a reviewer verifies the fix, so the audit becomes a traceable evidence pack for marine engineers and class surveyors rather than an ageing spreadsheet. Because scoring is built into the template, two sites assessed by two people produce numbers you can compare fairly.
Which propeller shaft defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The audit targets the propeller shaft failures that matter most: blade damage or cavitation erosion, stern tube seal leakage, excessive bearing wear-down, and misalignment and coupling issues. Left unchecked, a fault such as blade damage or cavitation erosion can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so marine engineers and class surveyors fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.
Which standards does Propeller / Shaft Audit App support for propeller shaft work?
Propeller / Shaft Audit App keeps propeller shaft checks aligned to class survey standards and shaft alignment requirements. The photos and readings each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, marine engineers and class surveyors pull the records for the site in scope with one search instead of rebuilding them from folders. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.
Can teams run propeller shaft checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Propeller / Shaft Audit App is offline-first: teams complete propeller shaft checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing photos and the evidence each check requires in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So marine engineers and class surveyors get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a remote or low-signal area never costs a round or loses a photo.
What evidence proves a propeller shaft audit was completed?
Every completed propeller shaft audit carries blade condition photo, stern tube oil sample note, and wear-down reading photo, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, marine engineers and class surveyors can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
