Safety-critical work, exactly by the procedure.

OpsBrain guides field crews through inspections, switching and permit workflows with verification at every step that matters.

Before OpsBrain

  • Switching steps executed from memory under time pressure.
  • Permit-to-work paperwork that lags the actual work.
  • Inspection backlogs with no visibility into what got checked.

With OpsBrain

  • Switching procedures followed in exact order, with confirmations.
  • Permits issued, verified and closed inside the same guided flow.
  • Inspection coverage visible per asset, per route, per crew.

The story

A day on OpsBrain

1
7:00

Permit before work

The isolation permit run collects authorizations, lock-out confirmations and photos of the applied locks before the job status can move to active.

2
9:30

Switching, step-locked

Each switching step requires confirmation before the next appears. The sequence that keeps people alive is enforced, not recited.

3
12:00

Substation inspection

The route's inspections guide gauge readings, thermal photos and housekeeping checks. An out-of-range reading opens a defect with the evidence attached.

4
15:30

Permit closed properly

Work done, locks removed one by one with photo confirmation, permit closed. The record shows the full lifecycle, not just the signatures.

5
Review board

Compliance with visibility

The quarterly review pulls completion rates per route and crew. The backlog is real numbers now, and the two chronically skipped checks get redesigned.
