Pisys combines a permit board with task-risk, isolation and contractor management. Buyers with existing maintenance systems should examine its documented Maximo integration approach. The mobile application has a defined account requirement, so field deployment should include role provisioning and reconnect acceptance tests.
Evidence: Researched profile
Built from vendor sources checked ; AI-assisted drafting. Documentation review, not a hands-on test. How pages are made
Industrial, maintenance and facilities teams coordinating permits across worksites and contractors. Pisys documents configurable approval, suspension, reissue, hand-back, isolation, contractor and SIMOPS workflows, but the buyer remains responsible for the site control-of-work procedure, competence model and legal compliance. Offline mobile hand-back is narrower than complete offline operation; a self-hosted vessel deployment and synchronisation described in a customer case study do not establish the standard cloud service. Confirm whether Maximo/API work, Entra ID, multilingual configuration, QR/tag equipment and any adjacent Pisys modules are included.
Worth evaluating when a dedicated permit office needs contractor and maintenance context in one workflow. Compare the cost of configuring your actual approval process and interfaces, not an assumed generic seat price.
This listing covers Pisys Permit to Work and its named permit, isolation, contractor and task-risk workflows. Pisys Action Tracker, ESG reporting, operations-training simulators and other Pisys 360 products are adjacent products and are not automatically included. Customer case studies evidence specific deployments, not standard entitlement or performance guarantees.
Pisys Permit to Work capabilities, evidence status and source links
Capability
Evidence
Scope and source
Permit board
Documented by vendor
A central board groups active work. Test filtering and role visibility with several sites.
The documented client approach exchanges work-order context and permit links. Status definitions, mappings and endpoint examples require configuration; this is not evidence of a preconfigured connector included in every subscription.
The Maximo article states that Pisys PTW has an API. Public material does not establish general entitlement, complete endpoint documentation, limits or support for a buyer-built integration; require these in the proposal.
Pisys describes task steps, hazards, pre- and post-mitigation severity and likelihood, and controls that can form a RAMS record in the PTW workflow. Template and risk-library governance remain the customer's responsibility.
The live permit board and plot-plan view support review of simultaneous work and potential interactions. Official material does not establish that every conflict is detected automatically; demonstrate rule logic and the supervisor's manual responsibilities.
Isolation tags can be printed with populated details, and QR codes can take a mobile user to linked permit and isolation information. Confirm supported printers, device access, damaged-tag procedure and whether scanning changes any isolation state.
Pisys positions the system for planning, review, authorisation, execution and formal close-out, with a documented customer configuration retaining approvals, suspensions and daily reissues. Exact states, segregation of duties and extension rules are configuration-dependent.
Pisys describes central multi-worksite visibility, while one official customer case study used locally hosted vessel servers and synchronisation to an onshore system. Treat that topology, multilingual operation and synchronisation as a scoped reference configuration rather than a default cloud capability.
1 additional areas. Status describes reviewed sources, not hands-on performance.
Also watch for: No numeric subscription verified. Offline action permissions need a task-by-task demonstration. Illustrative API architecture is not a preconfigured connector guarantee.
Pisys Permit to Work pricing
Custom quote
Pricing is not publicly available as a numeric subscription in the reviewed official sources, contact vendor. Request a proposal specifying worksites, user roles, modules, interface delivery and renewal terms. The product page lists onboarding, hosting, Entra ID integration, support, upgrades and storage as included subscription features.
Pricing sources checked : Selected sources checked; no starting price recorded. Rechecked the current product, isolation, security and Maximo integration pages. The product page offers a free trial using the buyer's permits by arrangement; duration, deployment model, configured workflows and enabled scope require confirmation.
Which product scope should the quote cover?
Configurable permit-to-work software for permit lifecycle control, task risk assessment, isolations, contractor records and simultaneous-work visibility. Hosting, mobile/offline behaviour, SSO, interfaces and deployment topology must be scoped for the contracted environment.
Ask the vendor to identify the product, region, modules, billing unit, contract term and included services in writing.
Offline work and integrations
The official product FAQ documents offline completion and hand-back with database updates after reconnection. The publisher app listing requires an existing Pisys PTW account. Issuance, changed isolations, emergency suspension visibility and conflicting updates require explicit verification.
The product FAQ documents offline completion and hand-back. The app requires an existing account. Ask how changed central records are reconciled before treating a field update as authoritative.
Can Pisys track contractor qualifications?
Its contractor module records company and worker documentation, with expiry tracking. Demonstrate your approval criteria and what happens to affected jobs when a document expires.
Can Pisys connect permits to IBM Maximo?
Pisys publishes a Maximo integration approach for work-order context and permit links. Its sample API designs are illustrative. Confirm the supported configuration, commercial scope and delivery owner.
Does Pisys software make a permit compliant?
No. Pisys describes configurable workflows and support for HSE and management-system requirements, but the applicable procedure, roles, hazards, controls and authorization remain the customer's responsibility. Validate the configured process against the requirements for each site.
Does Pisys automatically detect every SIMOPS conflict?
The official material documents a live permit board and plot-plan visibility for simultaneous work. It does not prove that every interaction is algorithmically detected. Ask the vendor to distinguish automated checks, configured rules and supervisor review.
Does the isolation module include lockout hardware?
Pisys documents isolation records, tag printing and QR access. That does not establish that printers, locks, tags, mobile devices or other physical LOTO equipment are included; itemise hardware and procedures in the proposal.
Can Pisys support approvals, suspensions and daily permit reissues?
An official customer case study describes those processes being retained in a configured deployment, and Pisys documents a configurable lifecycle. Demonstrate the exact state model and permissions proposed for your site rather than assuming that customer's workflow is a default template.
Can Pisys PTW be self-hosted offshore?
A vendor case study describes dedicated servers aboard vessels, local Wi-Fi access and synchronisation with an onshore system. This is evidence of one delivered configuration, not proof that self-hosting or synchronisation is included or currently supported for every buyer.
Is Action Tracker included with Permit to Work?
Pisys presents Action Tracker and PTW as specialised products within a wider portfolio. A digital-permit article discusses linking an action-tracking system, but this does not establish bundled entitlement. Require the quote to identify every included module and integration.
AI-assisted explanations may be incomplete and do not replace a demo, primary documentation or your site control-of-work procedure.
Pisys states ISO 27001:2022 accreditation, but QHSEtech did not inspect the certificate or its scope; no independent certification conclusion is assigned.
