OpenPSM® is a cloud-based Process Safety Management (PSM) platform for auditing, benchmarking and improving PSM programmes across single-site and complex multi-site operations. It gives organisations a structured methodology to evaluate maturity, identify weaknesses and support continuous improvement.
01
Get clear visibility into how process safety really works across your sites.
OpenPSM® gives teams a practical way to compare documented systems with what’s actually happening operationally. It highlights gaps early, provides a clear view of maturity and gives organisations a reliable basis for improvement across all activities. Organisations with multiple sites can compare performance, share learning and identify where support is needed.
02
Empower teams to take control of PSM programme development
OpenPSM® guides users through a step-by-step assessment of PSM design and implementation. The process is consistent, repeatable and aligned with recognised good practice, making it easier for in-house teams to own and manage their programme. Each user sees a tailored dashboard showing maturity levels, open actions, overdue tasks and progress.
03
Built on best-practice guidance.
The standard OpenPSM® protocol covers 20 elements and 840+ questions built around the Plan–Do–Check–Act cycle. The core questions cannot be edited, preserving alignment with established best practice guidance. You can add your own questions for your own requirements, and all additions are automatically included in future reviews and audits.
04
Make continuous improvement a reality for users
You can map, benchmark and continuously improve your Process Safety Management system. You should consider if those involved in managing and undertaking critical tasks have the required knowledge, skills and experience? Have they been given task specific training?
