Process safety that stays connected to your plant

Run HAZOP/What-If studies and Management of Change as one connected loop — credited safeguards link to live Maintenance data, and go-live is blocked until the pre-startup review is complete.

The problem

A HAZOP study credits a relief valve or a high-high level switch as protecting against a catastrophic scenario. Years later that safeguard fails a proof test, and nobody connects the failure back to the study it protects — the safety case is silently invalidated. Meanwhile every "temporary" bypass or pump swap drifts through email with no enforced independence or approval routing, until a regulator asks who assessed the risk and there is no defensible record.

The solution

HAZOP/What-If studies and Management of Change live in one loop: safeguards link directly to your Maintenance equipment, so an impaired safeguard automatically flags its study for revalidation and notifies the process-safety owner. Changes route for risk-based approval, go through an independently confirmed pre-startup review, and cannot reach "live" with an unresolved temporary-change expiry — every assessment and approval is recorded as a defensible, auditable trail.

Capabilities

Everything a process-safety program needs

Every capability below is implemented in the module.

01

HAZOP & What-If Worksheets

Structured deviation analysis by node and guide word, plus free-form what-if scenarios, backed by pre-built industry guide-word and parameter libraries.

02

Before/After Risk Matrix

Severity x likelihood scored before and after each credited safeguard, making the real risk-reduction value of every safeguard explicit.

03

Auto-Generated Bow-Tie Diagrams

Top events and preventive/mitigative barriers render automatically from study data, with live health-coloured chips — no manual drawing.

04

Safeguard-to-Equipment Linking

Credited safeguards connect directly to the real Maintenance equipment records that protect against each scenario.

05

Automatic Revalidation on Impairment

An impaired safeguard or overdue preventive maintenance flags the dependent study for revalidation and notifies the process-safety owner.

06

Recommendation Tracking With Evidence

Recommendations carry owners and due dates, and cannot be closed without uploaded evidence; only the process-safety manager can approve a deferral.

07

Risk-Based MOC Routing

Change requests across equipment, procedures, materials and controls are triaged low/medium/high/critical, with high escalating to the change authority and critical blocked from approval.

08

Independent Reviews & Go-Live Gate

The requester and change owner cannot review, approve, or sign the pre-startup review of their own change; go-live is disabled until that review is complete.

09

Temporary-Change Expiry Enforcement

A change cannot reach "live" without a resolved expiry date, forcing a conscious revert, extend, or permanent-promotion decision.

Workflow

How it works

1

Run the study

Build a HAZOP or what-if worksheet from deviation nodes or guide words, and score severity x likelihood before and after each safeguard.

2

Link safeguards

Credit safeguards to real Maintenance equipment so a failed proof test or overdue preventive maintenance shows up on the study right away.

3

Raise the change

Submit an MOC for any equipment, procedure, material or control-system change; risk assessment routes it to the right approver automatically.

4

Gate the go-live

Complete the independent pre-startup review and resolve any temporary-change expiry before the change can go live.

No — it depends on and extends Maintenance. Credited safeguards link to your existing equipment records so proof-test and preventive-maintenance status flows into HAZOP automatically.
