Process Safety Audit
Focused audits for hazardous process industries to strengthen process safety systems, permits, SOPs, and corrective action controls.
Overview
Our Process Safety Audit is specifically designed for industries handling hazardous chemicals, flammable materials, and high-risk processes. The audit goes beyond general safety to deeply examine process safety management (PSM) systems, ensuring that the safeguards designed to prevent major process incidents are robust, properly maintained, and effectively managed.
The audit covers process hazard analysis (PHA) reviews, safety instrumented systems (SIS) integrity, permit-to-work systems, standard operating procedures (SOPs), management of change (MOC) procedures, pre-startup safety reviews (PSSR), and emergency shutdown systems. We also assess the competency of operators, the effectiveness of safety training programs, and the adequacy of process safety documentation.
The final report provides a gap analysis against recognized PSM frameworks, identifies weaknesses in process safety barriers, and recommends corrective actions with clear ownership and timelines. This audit is particularly valuable for chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and oil & gas facilities where a single process safety failure can have catastrophic consequences.
