The mining industry has an increasing responsibility to society, to ensure that operations are as safe as possible, and that every reasonable measure is taken to protect people and the environment. ApplyIT specialises in technology based solutions that reduce the risk of accidents or injury by improving the way people work in hazardous environments.
ApplyIT's OpSUITE™ suite of solutions has been industry proven for a decade and is used by many of the world's most significant mining organisations, as well as leading energy and process manufacturing companies in several countries. Adopters of the suite include IntelliPERMIT™, a leading permit to work system for managing hazardous work and isolations, FlexiLOG™, a proven platform for improving operations performance in industrial environments, SmartSURE™, a powerful safety management system, and OptiRUN™ , a best-in-class maintenance solution.
OpSUITE has been developed in conjunction with engineers and operations management teams in companies which engage in hazardous processes every day. As a result the OpSUITE system has in-depth functionality for the specific requirements of the mining industry.
The suite supports processes such as permit to work and advanced isolation management, which have been proven in multiple situations. OpSUITE has been designed with flexibility in mind to ensure that your existing best safety practices can be incorporated into the new software package and are better managed.
Most people would agree that use of contractors and temporary labour present unique challenges when it comes to safety in hazardous environments.
OpSUITE manages specific competencies and authorities of people who work on plant and equipment. This management system ensures that work in hazardous situations is being performed by people with the right skills at all times, that supervision is adequate, and that mine workers are adhering to prescribed safety processes.
Integration of OpSUITE into external systems such as access control can further improve the safety of the work taking place.
OpSUITETM has been designed around the principles inherent in all safety management systems and ApplyIT's customers typically experience significantly improved results in their operational safety audits after implementing the solutions.
Whether your company implements ISO14000, an alternative management system, the improved transparency and controls inherent in an integrated system such as OpSUITE are key to meeting your objectives.
ApplyIT supports many of its mining customers in several countries throughout the system lifecycle, from requirements definition, system design and implementation, to go-live and ongoing support services.
As your processes and environment changes, and staff come and go, ApplyIT's professional services team ensures that your most critical safety systems continue to be updated and maintained, while ensuring that safety and operations benefits continue to be realised on a sustainable basis.
