There are firms that specialize in software to do exactly what you’re describing. But a lot of it is just cultural. For example, how do you make sure checklists are updated? You hire people whose sole job is to update checklists.

One example of a software firm in this space: https://www.fieldlogs.com/FieldLogsStatic/index.html

Wait, you don't build an X culture by creating an X department staffed with people whose sole job is to do X.

If you are serious about X, you do indeed need an X culture, but you get that by making it everyone's job to do X.

Creating an X department staffed with X people will have the exact opposite outcome.

It’s been awhile since I’ve read it but I believe the book touched on the cultural piece. One of the unique things about aviation is that there culture if checklists starts with neophyte pilot and continues through their career.

Many other domains have checklists but not the cultural element. When it’s not engrained, you run into a lot of “I don’t need a checklists, I know what I’m doing.”

IMO the culture piece is the real tough problem to solve.
