Why permits go wrong

The Challenge

Paper permits get lost

Permits are signed in the field, filed later, or never filed. During an incident or an audit there is no reliable record of who approved what.

Gaps are found too late

A missing permit or method statement is found after the work has started, not before.

How FacilityFlow fixes it

Digital permits with approvals

IFM Work Permits and Internal PTW carry hazards, isolation points, gas tests, tools, PPE and checklists. Approval workflows control each permit.

Alerts when something is missing

Hourly client-PTW due checks run, and alerts go out when a permit is missing. Daily MSRA checks send email and push alerts when a method statement is missing.

Capabilities

What permit to work covers

Permits, method statements and handover in one system.

  • MSRA approvals

    Method Statement and Risk Assessment records hold hazards, equipment, PPE and team. Approval runs Technical, then HSE, then Client. MSRA has a validity window and expiry reminders.

  • LOTO and shift handover

    Permits link to LOTO isolation and to shift handover (HOTO) records. Permit-to-Work Status and handover reports give a clear view of what is open.
