Top Lockout Tagout FAQs

Is the Lockout Tagout software customizable?2025-12-23T10:02:25-04:00

Yes. Smart Safety Pro is a lockout tagout software designed to be customizable for any organization.

The LOTO admin tool allows program administrators access to add and edit data points specific to their implementation. This includes things such as energy type, energy feed, magnitude, and locations.

Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout software also includes a fully customizable facility and divisional hierarchy setup. This means that equipment is placed into departments, buildings, floors, and zones for optimal inventory management and assignments. Facility view options include card style and divisional.

For corporate implementations, plant sites are easily segregated including user access.

Do I need to print and file periodic inspection records?2025-12-23T09:56:11-04:00

No. The lockout tagout software portal stores all periodic inspections in the database permanently. Periodic inspection reports can be run on-demand as needed.

During an OSHA audit, periodic inspection data can be produced for any equipment criteria and any date range at the click of a button.

How do I create a procedure report to attach to the machine?2025-12-23T10:41:32-04:00

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.

Do I need to buy special scanners or hardware to use Smart Safety LOTO?2025-12-23T09:57:56-04:00

No. The Smart Safety Pro lockout tagout app can be downloaded from the public app store onto any device running Android or iOS. It works on cell phones and tablets, and scans barcodes with the device’s camera.

For companies with strict security requirements, the app should be installed on an enterprise grade mobile computer. This is a handheld device with an integrated laser scanner. It can be locked down to disable camera, bluetooth, WiFi, and any other prohibited feature.

Intrinsically safe mobile computers are also available for performing lockout tagout operations in C1D1 or C2D2 flammable environments.

Can I edit a procedure after it is submitted?2025-12-23T10:42:24-04:00

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.

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.

Is there version tracking included?2025-12-23T10:34:20-04:00

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.
