Mobile Periodic Inspections

Periodic Inspections are often considered the hardest part of OSHA 1910.147 compliance. They normally require manual tracking, planning, paperwork, and data entry. The process is cumbersome and hard to succeed at. Smart Safety Lockout Tagout takes over all the manual processes so that you can spend your time focused on the actual intent of the standard: training employees and keeping your facility safe.

“A lot of companies don’t have systems in place to be able to manage the periodic inspection process, and it can be very challenging. With InspectNTrack Smart Safety, you can go out there and just bring procedures up on the fly and do a mobile periodic inspection. Make that part of your daily life. Then you can go on the web and you can see, we still have these 10 that we didn’t hit and then we do a planned event on those.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Check out the answers to frequently asked questions about the Smart Safety Lockout Tagout software program.

Do I need to use a desktop computer to create a procedure?SSsupport2024-10-22T13:29:34-04:00

Do I need to use a desktop computer to create a procedure?

No. The lockout tagout app includes a 100% mobile LOTO procedure builder. Procedures are written right at the machine for better accuracy and efficiency. Users can add energy sources, take and annotate images, and add verification and return to service steps all on the mobile app.

Can I edit a procedure after it is submitted?SSsupport2024-10-22T13:29:30-04:00

Can I edit a procedure after it is submitted?

After a procedure has been submitted for approval, the approver is able to make edits until the final approval. When a procedure is in an approved status it cannot be edited. However, if things change or edits are determined to be needed during a periodic inspection, a procedure can be unapproved. This allows the procedure to be modified as needed and then submitted for reapproval. This is a quick process that does not require starting over with a new procedure. When a procedure is revised, it is assigned a new ID number and QR code to ensure version tracking and undisrupted history data.

How do I create a procedure report to attach to the machine?SSsupport2024-10-22T13:29:27-04:00

How do I create a procedure report to attach to the machine?

With the Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout app, a procedure is written at the machine using the 100% mobile procedure builder. Once complete, it is available for viewing on the main procedure dashboard. The steps of the procedure are automatically compiled into a beautiful custom branded report, and include Scope, Purpose, and Authorization; application steps, equipment pictures, energy identification and isolation instructions, and return to service steps. No extra formatting is required – simply press the print button and attach the report to each machine.

Is there version tracking included?SSsupport2024-10-22T13:29:17-04:00

Is there version tracking included?

Anytime a lockout tagout procedure is unapproved, edited, and re-approved, it is assigned a new procedure ID number. This offers version tracking when reviewing historical reports and makes it possible to see which lockout tagout procedure was used at any point in time.

How do I track when periodic inspections are due?

With the Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout app, program managers no longer need to manually track when periodic inspections are due.

When it is necessary to change a procedure, the procedure can be unapproved and edited. Changes can then be made to the existing procedure without having to start over. This includes editing image annotation and isolation steps. After the changes are complete, the procedure is submitted for approval and assigned a new procedure ID number.
