This application is a comprehensive, scalable Permit to Work (PTW) platform engineered to enhance operational safety and efficiency within any facility. It replaces traditional paper-based permit systems with a streamlined digital workflow, providing a single source of truth for all maintenance, repair, and project work performed by external contractors.
The system is designed to manage the entire permit lifecycle for contracts of all sizes—from a single-day, low-risk maintenance task (small contract) to a multi-week, high-risk installation (large contract).
Key Features:
Customizable Workflows: Administrators can configure unique approval chains and requirements based on the work's risk level, duration, and type (e.g., Hot Work, Confined Space, Electrical, Work at Height).
Tiered Contract Management: The platform differentiates between small, medium, and large contracts, applying proportionate levels of scrutiny, documentation, and authorization steps.
Integrated Risk Assessment: Digital forms for Job Safety Analysis (JSA) and risk assessments are built into the permit request process, ensuring all hazards are identified and mitigated before work begins.
Centralized Dashboard: A real-time dashboard provides facility managers with at-a-glance visibility of all active, pending, and expired permits, their locations, and the contractors involved.
Compliance & Auditing: Every action—from request to closure—is timestamped and logged, creating a robust, searchable audit trail. The system helps ensure compliance with internal safety policies and external regulations (e.g., OSHA).
Automated Notifications: Key stakeholders, including safety officers, area owners, and contractors, receive automated alerts for permit status changes, upcoming expirations, and renewal requirements.
Document & Certification Management: Serves as a repository for contractor credentials, insurance certificates, and safety training records, ensuring all personnel on-site are qualified and compliant.
By digitizing the work permit process, the application significantly reduces administrative overhead, accelerates project timelines, enhances on-site safety, and provides management with powerful data for auditing and improving safety protocols.
