GIVING YOU FULL CONTROL
Modular Design – Accessible Interface
Our isolations module allows you to view and manage planned or real isolations across all of your work sites. Rendering isolations on plot plans ensures that you always have a true visualisation of all relevant environments and hazards. An innovative lock-out/tag out system for hardware, full integrations with all relevant permits and customisable workflows all help you manage complex or long-term isolations. Our isolations screen is simple to use; ensuring that you always have access to all relevant information in an easily-digestible format.
Permit Module
Our permit module lets you create, issue and manage permits for all types of hazardous work – including working at height, confined space entry, hotwork, and excavations. It also allows you to add and manage worksites and contractor companies, confirm that a site visit has taken place, double check that you have all relevant documentation in place and approve permits – ensuring that nothing ever slips through the cracks. Best of all though, it has a virtual permit board that mimics the permit boards found in most site offices – allowing you to view all current permits in one place, irrespective of where you are..
Managing multiple contractors doesn’t need to be challenging. Our PTW software allows you to record critical information about a given contractor’s competencies, certifications and issued permits. It also flags up important expiry/renewal dates and allows you to drill down and view relevant documentation on a per-person or organisational level, so that you always know exactly who is authorised to work on a specific project. The framework itself is fully customisable too – allowing you to create specific requirements or certification rules and rely on the system to prompt you for these documents whenever you add a new contractor.
" The Permit to Work system is extremely capable, easy to use and highly flexible."
Don Davies - Technip FMC
A SAFER WAY TO WORK
Fully Compliant With All Relevant Standards
Pisys Permit to work system is fully customisable and supports compliance with HSE/ISO/OHSAS Standards. It can be adapted to support your existing Control of Work or HSE Management System and is compatible with HSE Guidance on Electronic Permit to Work Systems, as per HSG250 and because existing control of work systems can be transferred onto PTW, set-up & training times are kept to a minimum. Our Permit to Work system integrates with the Action Tracker and Task Risk Manager modules of the Pisys 360 Suite.
What Our Customers Say
We have found the Control of Work system to be extremely capable, easy to use and highly flexible, requiring minimal end-user training.
We selected the Pisys system because it was extremely quick to implement, it matched our requirements very well, and was very easy to configure. Pisys staff helped us at every stage and provided on-site training to our team. We were delighted with their commitment, and they have continued to be a great partner for us as we extend our use of the system.
Having adopted the Pisys Permit to work system we now have great visibility on all engineering activities, and we have an extremely simple and effective system to issue and manage permits. Pisys were easy to work with, they understood the issues we faced and were extremely responsive to our questions.

Frequently Asked Questions
| How secure is my data? | Data is encrypted and securely stored on the cloud in our Amazon datacentres. Pisys are accredited to ISO27001:2022 which means that we maintain an exceptionally high level of security governance. You can set permissions for all users to control how much of the system they can access. |
| How easy will it be to roll out? | Because you don't need any local hardware there's no local setup. We quickly create digital permit forms based on your existing permits and you can be using the system within days. |
| How will it work with poor internet? | Our Mobile app allows permits to be completed and handed back without an internet connection. When internet is available the system automatically updates the central database. |
| I'm worried about introducing such a large change | We understand that change can be hard, no matter how many issues yuor existing system may have. To help the process we offer a free trial with your permits so that you can introduce your team to the benefits of a digital permit system. We also provide free support to all our users |
| Will it handle all my permit types? | Yes, you can have as many permit types as you need, and you can cover multiple activities on the same form, so for example a single permit could cover isolations, hot work, confined space etc. |
| How do staff access the system? | Staff and contractors can use any browser to access the system (subject to appropriate permissions being granted by you) |
| How are risk assessments handled? | Risk assessments (RA's) can either be attached to the permit or you can use our built-in Task Risk manager |
| What are the Benefits of a digital PTW system | The main benefit is Safety - the system will help to ensure that staff are qualified and competent to do the task, that risk assessments have been performed, appropriate equipment is being used and that isolations etc have been properly managed. It will also help to underpin compliance since work can be more tightly controlled. You can also expect increased efficiency due to the centralised view of all tasks which should result in faster processing of permits and easier reporting |
| What is a Control of Work (COW) system | Control of work is defined as Digital workflows and content which enable operations and safety managers to apply an approval process to minimize the amount of unsafe activities in work environments and to reduce risk. Our PTW system includes a rigorous approval workflow combined with comprehensive risk management. Alongside our contractor management, Isolations management and reporting functionality we believe that it is a core element of any Control of Work (COW) system |
| What are the issues with a paper based PTW system | Paper based permits can introduce errors due to lack of automatic validation. They can also introduce time delays as paper has to be physically moved around a site for processing. Data can be lost if permits are mislaid or damaged. Finally it is extremely difficult to control access to paper permits - which introduces the risk of sensitive information being mistakenly shared |
| How can I switch from a paper based Permit to Work system | Perhaps the biggest issue you will face is the size of the change involved. A good way to approach this is to introduce the system gradually, potentially focussing on a specific team or business function, working with staff who can turn into advocates or champions for the system in the wider business - once staff get comfortable and can see the benefits of the digital system you can introduce the system to a wider community |
