## Overview
Navatom Dashboard is the operational command center for your entire fleet — one screen that shows what is due, what is overdue and what is waiting for you, drawn from 27+ integrated modules. Instead of opening each module to see what needs attention, fleet managers, superintendents and office teams see it on personalized dashboards built from 170+ pre-built widgets.
Built on a responsive drag-and-drop layout engine, the Dashboard module lets every user create, customize, and share dashboards tailored to their role. Three widget display types — Metric cards for single-value KPIs, Table widgets for tabular data, and Chart widgets for visual analytics — cover every reporting need.
Dashboards stay private or are shared with the whole company, and Navatom's standard dashboards give every team a starting point, so the right people see the right data at the right time.
A fleet page ranks every vessel by a safety and maintenance score, and every module has a dashboard of its own. Vessel filters, module-aware access and widgets that read the live records deliver accurate data across your entire fleet without manual data gathering or spreadsheet consolidation.

## Key figures
- 170+ Pre-Built Widget Types

## Features
- **170+ Pre-Built Widget Catalog**: Access a library of 170+ pre-built widgets covering 27+ integrated modules across your entire fleet operation. From PMS work order counts and inventory stock levels to safety incident tracking and financial summaries, every critical metric is available as a ready-to-use widget — no configuration or custom development required. Widgets are organized by module: 11 each for Planned Maintenance and Procurement, 10 each for Crew Manager and Crew Planning, 8 for Certificates, 7 each for Bookkeeping, Deficiencies, Non-Conformities and Technical Findings, 6 each for Inventory Management, Spare Parts and Forms, 5 each for Accidents, Near Misses and Drydock, 4 each for Audits, Circulars, Drills, Trainings, Safety Meetings and Master's Reviews, 3 for Manuals, and 26 personal and fleet-wide widgets that span modules. Every module your fleet uses feeds directly into the dashboard.
  - 170+ widgets across 27+ modules
  - PMS, Safety, Finance, Crew & more
  - Zero-configuration setup
  - Module-organized widget library
  - Instant access to every fleet KPI
- **Fleet Ranking by Safety & Maintenance Score**: See every vessel you manage ranked on one page. Each ship gets a safety score and a maintenance score, both out of 100, and a total that weighs safety at 70% and maintenance at 30%, so the fleet reads from the best-run vessel to the one that needs attention first. The safety score falls with the deficiencies raised from audit and vetting findings, each by the weight of its severity and within that severity's look-back period, both set by your administrators. The maintenance score is the share of maintenance approved by the office over the last two years that was done on time. Open any vessel for its photo, particulars, and the audits and vettings held on board, grouped by authority with their finding counts.
  - Safety and maintenance score per vessel
  - Total weighted 70% safety, 30% maintenance
  - Fleet ranked from first to last
  - Severity weights and look-back you set
  - Vessel page with audits and vettings
- **Fleet & Vessel Scoping**: Toggle between fleet-wide aggregate views and single-vessel detail views on any dashboard. Fleet scoping aggregates widget data across all vessels in your managed fleet — total overdue maintenance items, combined safety incident counts, fleet-wide certificate expiration summaries. Vessel scoping drills down to a single ship for focused operational review. Ship-level filtering lets a vessel's superintendent see only that ship's data on the same dashboard layout that fleet management uses for the full fleet, or pick a few vessels to compare. The same widgets, the same layout, the same KPI definitions, just scoped to the relevant context. Switch between fleet and vessel views instantly without rebuilding your dashboard.
  - Fleet-wide aggregate view
  - Single-vessel drill-down
  - Instant scope toggle
  - Same layout, different data context
  - Pick one vessel or several
- **Personal Widgets for Your Own Work**: Put your own work on your dashboard. Personal widgets show the accidents, deficiencies, non-conformities, near misses and technical findings that are yours, the maintenance and forms waiting for your approval, and the purchasing, bookkeeping and crew planning approvals waiting on you. Fleet-wide widgets add what is overdue in each safety module, the certificates overdue or expiring within 90 days, and the drills, trainings, safety meetings and master's reviews scheduled or still waiting for review, so a superintendent starts the day from one screen.
  - My open issues across five modules
  - Approvals waiting on me
  - Overdue items per safety module
  - Certificates expiring within 90 days
  - Drills, trainings and meetings scheduled
- **Drag-and-Drop Dashboard Builder**: Build your perfect dashboard layout with an intuitive drag-and-drop interface. Search the widget library, preview a widget, add it, then drag it by its handle into any arrangement. Resize widgets from any edge or corner to give more space to critical KPIs and compact secondary metrics. The layout is kept for five screen sizes, so a dashboard built on a large office monitor reflows onto a laptop or a tablet with fewer columns. Widgets snap to the grid and close up any gaps, so every layout looks professional without manual pixel-pushing.
  - Search & preview the widget library
  - Drag, drop & resize widgets freely
  - Layouts for five screen sizes
  - Grid snapping with no overlaps
  - Clean layouts on any screen size
- **Sharing & Visibility Levels**: Control exactly who can see each dashboard. A new dashboard is private, visible only to you. One click shares it with everyone in your company, ideal for fleet-wide KPI boards displayed on office monitors. Colleagues find it in the same module, open it read-only, and copy it when they want to make it their own. Standard dashboards published by Navatom are visible to every company, and until you build your own, a module opens on its standard dashboard. They give fleet management companies consistent KPI monitoring across the organization without requiring each user to build their own views.
  - Private: only you
  - Shared: everyone in your company
  - Read-only for colleagues, copy to edit
  - Standard dashboards from Navatom
- **Custom Dashboard Creation**: Create unlimited custom dashboards: start a new one, copy a dashboard a colleague has shared or one of Navatom's standard dashboards as a starting point, rename it, and delete the ones you no longer need. Each dashboard is an independent canvas with its own widget selection, layout, and sharing settings. Copy a shared dashboard to quickly spin up a variant: take a fleet superintendent's overview dashboard and adapt it for a port captain by swapping a few widgets. The copy keeps the full layout and widget configuration, saving setup time when creating role-specific views.
  - Unlimited custom dashboards
  - Create, copy, rename & delete
  - Copy shared & standard dashboards
  - Independent widget & layout per dashboard
- **Newsfeed Integration**: The newsfeed sits next to your dashboards and surfaces what happened on the records you are involved in, across every module: the module, the record, who did what and when, in chronological order, giving you a narrative view of fleet activity that complements the quantitative widget data. Several updates to one record are grouped into a line you can expand, and you mark updates read one by one or all at once. The newsfeed is in the ship app too, and Navatom AI's scheduled reports arrive there. The combination of quantitative dashboards and qualitative activity streams gives fleet managers both the "what" and the "why" one click apart.
  - Updates on your own records
  - Chronological event feed
  - Grouped updates, read & unread
  - Cross-module event visibility
- **Three Widget Display Types**: Every widget comes in the display types that suit its data, and you choose one when you add it. Metric widgets show a single bold number, perfect for overdue counts, completion rates, and fleet totals. Table widgets list the records behind the number with sortable columns, ideal for open work orders, pending approvals, or expiring certificates. Chart widgets draw bar, line, donut and sunburst charts, turning raw numbers into actionable patterns, and tables and charts open full screen. The three-type system ensures that every piece of fleet data is presented in the most effective format for quick comprehension and decision-making.
  - Metric cards for single-value KPIs
  - Table widgets for tabular data
  - Chart widgets for visual analytics
  - Choose the format per widget
- **Multi-Ship Count Aggregations**: Chart widgets break counts down across the fleet, so one picture compares every vessel: overdue maintenance by vessel, by rank and by maintenance type, maintenance waiting for approval by vessel, purchase orders, requisitions and quotation requests by status, and spend by vendor. Multi-ship aggregations transform the dashboard from a simple status board into a fleet intelligence tool. Identify outlier vessels and benchmark performance from pre-built widgets that require zero custom report building, and turn to the fleet ranking for the whole picture.
  - Overdue maintenance by vessel
  - By rank and maintenance type
  - Purchasing by status and vendor
  - Fleet-wide benchmarking
  - Outlier vessel identification
- **Default Dashboard Selection**: Set any dashboard as your default, the view that loads automatically when you open the Dashboard or a module's dashboard. Each user picks a default per module, so the Procurement dashboard and the fleet overview each open on the view you chose. The default selection is personal and does not affect other users. Users who have not built a dashboard of their own see Navatom's standard dashboard for that module, so new users see a ready-made dashboard without any setup, reducing onboarding friction and ensuring immediate access to critical operational data.
  - Per-user default dashboard
  - A default for each module
  - Navatom standard dashboard as fallback
  - Zero-setup onboarding for new users
- **Real-Time Data Aggregation**: Widgets read your live records every time the dashboard loads, ensuring you always see current operational status, not stale cached reports. When a maintenance work order is completed, an incident is reported, or a certificate expires, the dashboard shows it the next time it loads, and any widget can be refreshed on its own. Permission-aware data access ensures users only see data they are authorized to access. Every widget checks that the user holds the module it draws from, the same module access that governs the rest of the app, so a technical superintendent sees maintenance and technical data while a DPA sees safety and compliance metrics.
  - Live records on every load
  - No stale cached reports
  - Refresh any widget on its own
  - Permission-aware data access
  - Module access checked per widget
- **Three Environment Contexts**: Records in Navatom carry the environment they belong to: a vessel, the office, or a third party. In the Audits, Deficiencies, Non-Conformities and Inventory dashboards, filter every widget by environment, one or several at a time. The same layout then answers both "how are our ships doing" and "how is the office doing": vessel audits and office audits, deficiencies raised on board and ashore, or stock held at a third party, each with a click. The filter applies to every widget on the dashboard at once, so the figures always agree with each other.
  - Vessel, office & third-party records
  - Pick one environment or several
  - Audits, deficiencies, NCs & inventory
  - One filter for every widget

## Technical abilities
- **Responsive Grid Dashboard Engine**: Dashboards run on a responsive grid with drag-and-drop positioning, resize handles on every edge and corner, grid snapping and automatic gap closing. Layouts are saved for five screen sizes and reflow from large office monitors to laptops and tablets.
- **Three Widget Display Types**: Each widget offers the display types that suit its data (Metric, Table or Chart), and the user picks one when adding it. Tables and charts open full screen, and every widget can be refreshed on its own.
- **Widgets Built Into Every Module**: Each widget belongs to the module whose records it reads and applies that module's own statuses and rules, from overdue maintenance to approvals waiting. Every module has a dashboard offering its own widgets, while the main Dashboard draws on all of them.
- **Permission-Aware Widget Data Pipeline**: Widget handlers enforce role-based access controls at the data layer, ensuring users see only the metrics they are authorized to access. A widget's data is served only to users who hold both the Dashboard and the module it draws from, the same access rules that govern the rest of the app.
- **Multi-Ship Real-Time Aggregation Engine**: Widgets count and group records across the selected vessels as the dashboard loads, by vessel, rank, type, status or vendor, without pre-computed data warehousing or scheduled batch jobs. The fleet ranking scores every vessel the same way, from the live audit, vetting and maintenance records.
- **Shareable Dashboard Framework**: Every dashboard has an owner and a visibility: private to its owner, or shared with everyone in the company, where colleagues open it read-only and can copy it. Navatom's standard dashboards are visible to every company and open by default until a user builds their own.

## Benefits
- **One Centralized Dashboard for Your Entire Fleet Operation**: Stop switching between modules to check KPIs. The Dashboard aggregates data from 27+ modules into a single view — maintenance, safety, certificates, finance, crew, inventory, and more — giving fleet managers a complete operational picture without leaving one screen.
- **170+ Pre-Built Widgets — No Configuration Required**: Every widget in the catalog works out of the box. Add a widget from the library and it immediately shows live data from the relevant module. No queries to write, no integrations to configure, no IT support tickets — just instant access to the KPIs that matter.
- **Drag-and-Drop Customization for Every User**: Every team member builds the dashboard that fits their role. The fleet superintendent sees fleet-wide compliance metrics. The technical superintendent sees maintenance KPIs for their vessels. The crewing manager sees crew changes due and approvals waiting. Drag-and-drop customization means every user gets exactly the view they need without affecting anyone else.
- **Real-Time Data Across 27+ Integrated Modules**: Dashboard widgets query live data — not cached snapshots or yesterday's report. When a work order is completed, an incident is filed, or a certificate expires, the dashboard shows it the next time it loads, and any widget can be refreshed on the spot. Real-time accuracy means decisions are based on the current state of your fleet, not stale information.
- **Shared Dashboards for Consistent Fleet Oversight**: Share a dashboard with your whole company in one click. Fleet managers publish curated KPI views that every colleague opens in the same module and can copy as a base for their own, and Navatom's standard dashboards give every team the same starting point. Consistent oversight means consistent performance across the fleet.

## Frequently asked questions
### What data can I see on the dashboard?
The dashboard provides more than 170 pre-built widgets covering 27+ modules, among them Planned Maintenance (11 widgets), Procurement (11), Crew Manager (10), Crew Planning (10), Certificates (8), Bookkeeping (7), Deficiencies (7), Non-Conformities (7), Technical Findings (7), Spare Parts (6), Forms (6), Drydock (5), Accidents (5), Near Misses (5), Audits (4), Circulars (4) and Manuals (3), plus personal widgets for your own open work and approvals. The Fleet page also ranks every vessel by a safety and maintenance score.

### Can I create my own custom dashboards?
Yes. You can create unlimited custom dashboards with full control over widget selection, layout, and sizing. The drag-and-drop builder lets you pick from 170+ widgets, arrange them freely on the canvas, and resize each widget to emphasize your most critical KPIs. You can also copy a dashboard a colleague has shared, or one of Navatom's standard dashboards, as a starting point and adapt it for a new role or context.

### How do I share dashboards with my team?
Every dashboard you build starts private. Share it and everyone in your company finds it in the same module: colleagues open it read-only and can copy it to adapt for themselves, while you keep editing the original. Navatom's standard dashboards are visible to every user, so a team can start from a common layout, from personal workspace to fleet-wide standard.

### Can I view data for a single vessel or the whole fleet?
Yes. Every dashboard supports fleet-wide and single-vessel scoping. Toggle between views to see aggregated fleet metrics or drill down to a specific vessel. The same dashboard layout works in both modes — widgets automatically adjust their data scope to match your selection.

### How many widgets are available?
170+ pre-built widgets are available across 27+ integrated modules. Each widget renders as one of three display types: Metric (single-value KPIs), Table (tabular data with sortable columns), or Chart (visual analytics). The widget catalog grows automatically as new modules are added to the platform.

### Is the data shown in real time?
Yes. Widgets read your live records each time the dashboard loads, and each widget can be refreshed on its own. There is no batch processing delay or scheduled refresh cycle. When operational data changes in any module, such as a work order completed, an incident reported or a certificate renewed, the dashboard reflects the change on your next view.

### How does Navatom rank the vessels in my fleet?
The Fleet page gives every vessel a safety score and a maintenance score out of 100. The safety score falls with deficiencies raised from audit and vetting findings, by the weight of each severity and within that severity's look-back period, both set by your administrators. The maintenance score is the share of maintenance approved by the office over the last two years that was done on time. The total weighs safety at 70% and maintenance at 30%, and the vessels are ranked by it. Open any vessel for its particulars and the audits and vettings held on board.

### Can I see everything waiting for me across modules?
Yes. Personal widgets show the accidents, deficiencies, non-conformities, near misses and technical findings assigned to you, the maintenance and forms waiting for your approval, and the purchasing, bookkeeping and crew planning approvals waiting on you. Add them to one dashboard and make it your default, and it opens first every time.

### Can I get a chart that no widget offers?
With Navatom AI, yes. Ask in plain language, such as "chart overdue maintenance by vessel across the fleet", and the answer comes back as a chart or a table from your own records. Ask it to repeat every Monday and the report arrives in your newsfeed.
