Permit-to-Work & Process Safety, Digitised

RiskSafetyAI streamlines safety management for oil and gas operations. Digital PTW, JSA workflows, LOTO verification, and emergency response — all in one platform.

Digital PTW systems cut permit time by up to 65%

Industry studies show that oil and gas operations using digital permit-to-work systems achieve dramatically faster turnaround without compromising safety standards.

The Challenge

Problems We Solve

These challenges are holding your safety operations back. RiskSafetyAI was built to fix them.

Slow Permit-to-Work Processes

Paper-based PTW systems create bottlenecks. Permits take hours to process, delaying critical maintenance work and increasing costs from idle crews.

Inconsistent JSA Documentation

Job safety analyses completed on paper vary in quality. No standardised format, no photo evidence or annotation, and no easy way to verify completeness before work begins.

LOTO Verification Gaps

Lockout-tagout procedures are critical but hard to verify. Paper logs don't provide real-time visibility into which equipment is isolated and by whom.

Emergency Response Readiness

When incidents occur, response teams need instant access to site layouts, muster points, and emergency contacts. Paper-based systems fail under pressure.

The Permit Lifecycle

From Job Request to Safe Close-Out

Follow a permit-to-work from initial request through AI conflict checking, multi-level approval, and digital close-out.

1

Job Identified

Maintenance planner raises a work request with scope, location, and equipment involved. The digital workflow begins before anyone picks up a tool.

2

JSA Completed

Crew completes a structured Job Safety Analysis with hazard identification, risk scoring, control measures, and annotated photo evidence — all on mobile.

3

Permit Requested

Digital PTW submitted with linked JSA, LOTO requirements, and equipment isolation details. No more paper permits lost between control room and field.

4

AI Conflict Check

AI auto-detects permit clashes, active stop notices, and historical incidents at the location. Control adequacy evaluated before work begins.

5

Multi-Level Approval

Approvers review on mobile — isolations verified, gas tests confirmed, controls validated. Push notifications ensure no permit sits waiting in a queue.

6

Work Executed

Real-time GPS tracking and geofence alerts during active work. Permit expiry countdowns keep crews aware. All activity logged with timestamps and locations.

7

Close-Out & Learnings

Permit closed digitally with completion evidence and sign-offs. AI generates a toolbox talk from any findings — turning today's work into tomorrow's safety briefing.

RiskSafetyAI Solutions

Features Built for Your Industry

Every capability designed by professionals who understand your operational reality.

Digital Permit-to-Work

Multi-level approval workflows for hot work, confined space, and general work permits. Real-time status tracking and automatic expiry alerts.

Job Safety Analysis (JSA)

Structured JSA templates with hazard identification, risk scoring, and control measures. Annotated photo evidence and digital sign-offs built in.

LOTO Verification

Digital lockout-tagout tracking with real-time isolation status. Verify who locked out which equipment and when — from any device.

Confined Space Management

Entry permits, atmospheric monitoring logs, and rescue plans managed digitally. Automatic alerts for expired permits and overdue entries.

Hot Work Permits

Digital hot work permit workflows with fire watch requirements, gas test results, and multi-level approvals.

Emergency Response Docs

Digital emergency response plans, muster point tracking, and incident notification workflows accessible from any device.

PDF Reports & Email Scheduling

Generate audit-ready PDF reports for every permit, JSA, and inspection — complete with photo evidence and digital sign-offs. Schedule automated email delivery to stakeholders on daily, weekly, or monthly cadence.

Zone Management & Tracking

Geofence restricted zones around vessels, rigs, and processing areas. Real-time worker tracking with automated violation alerts and route playback for incident investigation.

SOP Distribution & Broadcasts

Version-controlled procedure distribution with offline mobile access. Send targeted safety broadcasts via in-app, email, and push — with delivery and acknowledgement tracking.

Mobile Approvals & Notifications

Approve permits, close out isolations, and review JSAs from your phone — on the platform or at the control room. Push notifications ensure supervisors act on pending approvals before permits expire.

AI Safety Intelligence

Every permit, JSA, and inspection auto-assessed for adequacy. Vision AI analyses photos for missed hazards. Permit conflict checker auto-detects clashing permits, active stop notices, and control gaps before work begins.

AI SOP & Risk Engine

AI generates SOPs from approved forms, scores existing SOPs for quality, and auto-generates toolbox talks from recent findings. Predictive risk engine provides daily department risk scores with 30-day forecasts. Pre-Task RA auto-suggest saves 5–10 minutes per form.

Corrective Action Register

CAPA-lite system with root cause analysis, cost tracking, and two-step verification. Bidirectional linking for related actions.

Work Order Scheduling

Calendar-based maintenance planning with priority coding. Vendor/contractor work order access for turnaround crews.

Use Cases

How Teams Use RiskSafetyAI

Real-world scenarios where RiskSafetyAI makes a measurable difference.

Turnaround & Shutdown Safety

Manage hundreds of simultaneous work permits during planned shutdowns. Digital PTW ensures no conflicts, proper isolations, and real-time status for all work fronts.

Daily Toolbox Talks

Deliver standardised safety briefings to multilingual crews. Record attendance, topics covered, and crew acknowledgement — all digitally, all auditable.

Contractor Safety Management

Ensure contractors complete required JSAs, inductions, and competency checks before commencing work. Track compliance across all contractor teams.

Process Safety Monitoring

Track critical process safety indicators, equipment integrity inspections, and safety-critical maintenance. Identify trends before they become incidents.

The Data Advantage

Clean Data In. Deep Insight Out.

Every digital form your teams complete is a structured data point — timestamped, GPS-tagged, and photo-enriched. As your dataset grows, AI detects patterns no human could find manually.

Spot which equipment has the most permit conflicts. Identify which contractors consistently miss JSA requirements. Predict turnaround bottlenecks before they delay your shutdown schedule.
