Frequently Asked Questions

Top Lockout Tagout FAQs

Can I edit a procedure after it is submitted?2024-10-22T13:29:30-04:00

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.

What is the benefit of mobile lockout tagout?2024-10-22T13:29:13-04:00

Mobile lockout tagout software offers visibility and insights into machine status that are not possible with a manual lockout tagout program. When a machine is locked out, the authorized employee scans a QR code, views each step of the procedure, and confirms on the screen that the step was completed successfully. This offers two major benefits. First, it ensures that the procedure is followed correctly and includes documentation validation. Next, it changes the status of the equipment to “locked out”. The Smart Safety Pro equipment dashboard displays real-time operating status of all equipment so that program managers verify details without walking out to the machine.

Can I manage multiple sites in one system?2024-11-11T14:24:20-04:00

Yes. Within the Smart Safety Pro Lockout Tagout software, companies can add multiple sites to their operations. The customizable site map allows sites to be kept separate. The divisional hierarchy also allows companies to setup employees assignments and views by division.

Can I limit what users have access to?2024-11-11T14:24:49-04:00

Yes. The Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout software has built in user permission groups to ensure users only perform functions that they are authorized to do. The user groups allow or block the ability to create procedures, approve procedures, perform periodic inspections, perform machine lockout tagout events, or run reports. Admins have complete control over who is given access to various software. This ensures that only authorized employees have the ability to use the lockout tagout software to perform a digital lockout.

Can I use the app even if I don’t have WiFi?2024-11-11T14:25:36-04:00

Yes. The Smart Safety Pro Lockout Tagout app is built to work without a WiFi connection and transfers data between the software and the mobile app using a sync process. Lockout tagout procedures, audits, and updates can be completed anytime, anywhere. This means that you will never be unable to use the lockout tagout app due to a machine being in an area without a WiFi or data connection.

Can I use digital lockout for minor servicing?2024-10-22T13:28:54-04:00

Yes. The Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout app includes a minor servicing module. With this module, QR codes can be applied to individual energy sources. Scanning an energy source QR code launches a mini-procedure and changes the equipment status on the dashboard to minor servicing.
