Permit-to-work that sees the whole site.
Work Permit Intelligence is the permit office on one board: raise, assess and approve permits, catch simultaneous-operations clashes before they reach the field, and keep isolations, briefings and competency in the same system the site runs on.
Paper permits cannot see a live site.
On a live industrial site, the dangerous work is rarely one job. It is two safe jobs in the same place at the same time: hot work above a confined-space entry, a lift over a live line, a line break next to grinding. Paper permits and spreadsheets cannot see those combinations - so the permit coordinator holds the whole site in their head, shift after shift.
Work Permit Intelligence holds it instead. Every permit is planned against every other permit, in time and on the map, and the combinations that must never coexist are blocked before they are ever approved.
Fewer surprises, more work per shift.
Permit-to-work exists so everyone goes home. The case for running it in software is that a system can hold what no coordinator can: every permit, every isolation and every overlap on a live site, re-checked on every change. The value shows up as incidents that never happen - and as a permit office that plans more work in less time, with a record that defends itself.
- Block the clash nobody saw. The combinations that hurt people are stopped by the system before approval - not by hoping someone spots them in the morning meeting.
- Plan more work with the same team. Coordinators work from a live board and map instead of holding the site in their head - more permits per shift, fewer stand-downs.
- Answer "was that permitted?" in seconds. Permits, briefings, isolations and signatures in one queryable record - for the regulator, the client, and the moment that needs facts fast.
- Keep contractors aligned, not exposed. Every employer coordinates against the same clashes without seeing each other's commercial detail.
| What changes | The usual way | With Work Permit Intelligence |
|---|---|---|
| Clash detection | The coordinator's memory | Checked on every permit, critical clashes hard-blocked |
| Where the work is | A whiteboard and a marked-up plan | A live site map with permit footprints |
| Field verification | Radio calls back to the office | A signed QR scan at the workface |
| The record | Binders, scans and goodwill | A full audit trail, ready to query |
The permit office, on one board.
- The permit board. Every permit on site by state, shift and area - built for the daily permit meeting, not reconstructed for it.
- SIMOPS clash control. Overlapping work is detected as permits are planned. Critical combinations hard-block approval until they are resolved; lesser ones warn.
- The site map. Live permits and clashes drawn on your site plan, with each permit's footprint where the work actually is.
- Isolations. Energy isolations recorded and linked to the permits that depend on them.
- Briefings and competency. Toolbox briefings captured, and workforce competency checked before work starts.
- Field verification by QR. Every permit carries a signed QR code - anyone on site can confirm it is valid from a phone, without an account.
- Contractor confidentiality. Contractors see their own work, not each other's. The site team sees everything, and clash control applies across all of it.
- Risk and signatures. A 5x5 risk matrix on the permit, signature capture at the point of work, and a full audit trail behind it.
Built for many employers on one site.
Work Permit Intelligence is used by owners and operators of live plants, and by the EPCMs and principal contractors coordinating brownfield work, shutdowns and construction sites where many employers work side by side. Permits, isolations and briefings stay coordinated even when the people doing the work belong to different companies.
AI assistance is optional everywhere it appears: every project has an off switch, and permits are always assessed and approved by people.
Questions, answered.
What is SIMOPS clash control?
SIMOPS - simultaneous operations - clash control detects permits whose work overlaps in time and place in combinations that must not coexist, for example hot work near flammable exposure or confined-space entry. Critical combinations block approval outright until they are resolved; lesser ones surface as warnings during planning.
Can field crews verify a permit without an account?
Yes. Every permit carries a signed QR code. Anyone on site can scan it with a phone and confirm the permit is valid, current and what it covers - no login required.
How do contractors fit in?
Contractor visibility is membership-scoped: each contractor sees its own permits and work, not other contractors' details, while the site team sees everything. Clash control still applies across all work on site - a clash blocks approval even when the two permits belong to different companies.
Where is our data hosted?
In the EU. The application and database run in Frankfurt, and Stomwerk AB is a Swedish company operating under Swedish law and the GDPR. The Data Processing Agreement and subprocessor register are on the legal shelf.
