Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions from cruise operators, port authorities, and onboard safety teams.

Let’s Talk

Can supervisors override status or manually check-in individuals if needed?

Yes. A-PASS supports manual search, comment logging, and override features across multiple modules. Supervisors can change a person's status, add context for exceptions, or complete a check-in manually when scanning fails - all with full traceability

How does A-PASS manage visitor access and temporary badges?

A-PASS enables the bulk printing of disposable thermal visitor passes. These are scanned at guard stations for activation, photo capture, and tracking. Passes are automatically invalidated upon reset, improving both efficiency and security.

Does A-PASS integrate with our ship’s property or crew management systems?

Yes. A-PASS offers two key services:

1. ADAM, for real-time, bidirectional data exchange with PMS or crew systems.
2. EVE, for streaming status updates, emergency flags, and more to connected systems.

These tools eliminate redundant entries and centralize critical data.

How does A-PASS help us meet maritime safety compliance requirements?

A-PASS automates emergency mustering, maintains timestamped logs, and tracks real-time check-ins via PDA or fixed kiosks. The system enables fast, accurate accountability of crew and passengers during drills and actual emergencies - reducing manual error and supporting auditability.

Can A-PASS function during network outages or in offline conditions?

Yes. A-PASS mobile modules - including Mobile Guard, Immigration, and Muster - support offline operations using private networks or device storage. Data syncs back to the server when connectivity is restored, ensuring continuity even during port calls or emergencies.
