Process Safety Management

Leaders in PSM Systems

Our commitment, knowledge and expertise in the field of Process Safety Management has made us a leader in the UK, and we now have a sound reputation for developing and delivering effective Process Safety Management Systems within the chemical and process industries.

In a nutshell process safety is about making sure that the reality of plant operations and maintenance remain the same as the design intent, with the passage of time. It's getting it right first time and ensuring that this continues to be the case.

HFL Risk Services can help you to:

• Carry out criticality assessments
• Identify critical Risk Control Systems (RCS)
• Develop leading and lagging indicators so that you can monitor your RCS accordingly
• Develop maintenance procedures and functional testing and inspection plans for safety critical plant and equipment

Our systematic and structured approach to assessment of Process Safety Management (PSM) Systems allows gaps to be readily identified whether they are against specific areas of legislation or industry best practice. This is achieved using our own in-house auditing and assessment tool, INSIGHT Lifecycle^®, which covers the four P's of PSM:

• Process - it questions the basis of safety
• Plant - it examines the systems in place for managing asset integrity through the lifecycle
• Procedures - it looks at the design and implementation of procedural systems
• People - it considers workforce involvement, training and competence across the key functional groups

Audits can be undertaken at any stage, including ahead of Intervention Visits from the Regulators, to ensure resources are targeted effectively.
