Why Traditional Safety Management Is Failing Industrial Plants

Why Traditional Safety Management Is Failing Industrial Plants

Why Traditional Safety Management Is Failing Industrial Plants

Industrial plants operate in dynamic, high-risk environments:

Paper-Based Systems Slow Down Maintenance

Manual permits delay critical maintenance work and create unnecessary downtime. When every shutdown or isolation requires physical signatures, lost time directly impacts productivity and production output.

Fragmented Oversight of Contractors and Maintenance Teams

Maintenance work often involves multiple internal teams and external service providers. Without centralized control, verifying qualifications, certifications, and safety readiness becomes complex—leading to risk exposure and compliance gaps.

Hazardous Tasks Demand Real-Time Validation

Industrial environments involve high-risk activities such as hot work, chemical handling, and confined space entry. Without digital checks and confirmations, essential safety conditions can be overlooked, increasing the chance of incidents.

Regulations and Insurance Requirements Are Tightening

From ISO 45001 to ATEX and OSHA standards, plants face rising scrutiny from regulators and insurers. Paper records are no longer enough to prove compliance, resulting in potential penalties and higher insurance premiums.

Permits in your pocket

Permits in your pocket

Create, approve, and manage work permits directly from a mobile device or desktop—whether you’re on the production floor or in the control room. Every permit links to worker qualifications, machinery, and safety data, ensuring that no maintenance begins without the right authorizations.

By digitizing the process, you minimize downtime, eliminate paperwork, and ensure every stakeholder knows what task is being performed, where, by whom, and under what safety controls.

Assessment and permit process
Assessment and permit process

Start by defining the task. Create the digital permit, attach photos or schematics, mark the machinery or area on the plant map, verify staff certifications, and complete necessary risk assessments or LOTO checklists.

Communication and Authorization

Send permits instantly to supervisors or contractors for approval. All acknowledgments are handled digitally, eliminating delays between maintenance, safety, and production teams.

Real-Time Tracking and Execution

Monitor live permit status via dashboards or site maps. Track isolation steps, energy sources, and maintenance progress. Record measurements or safety notes directly into the system during the work.

Closure, Control, and Reporting

Once tasks are complete, perform a digital closure and inspection. Data is stored automatically for audits, production logs, insurance requirements, and continuous improvement programs.
