How do we fly VOR approaches in jet aircraft?

Hola guys!

I've been recently asked if we need to monitor RNP value during VOR approach using FMS as the main navigation source.

So, personally I think we DO NOT have to monitor our RNP vs. ANP/EPU, instead we have to monitor our approach via basic needles (+-5 degrees) - the same as if it would be flown in C172.

But my colleagues believe that because we use LNAV/VNAV functions for VOR approach it is considered as RNP, so RNP 0.3 required.

What do you think?
