Energy/Oil & Gas

The Energy Sector — Utilities and Oil & Gas — is booming. Yet in the midst of significant growth, energy organizations must approach health, safety and the environment with great care. Accidents from pipeline breaks to tanker spills and power outages have caused billions in damages to people, business assets and the environment. Energy companies can mitigate these risks by following strict policies and procedures.

HandySoft and our partners work with energy organizations to develop solutions that automate operational, engineering and assurance processes through effective, efficient business process management (BPM).

Energy organizations use BizFlow® to automate:

  • Emergency Response
  • Engineering Requests
  • Hazard Assessments
  • Incident Investigations
  • Internal Audits
  • IT Process & Control Automation
  • Mechanical Integrity and Maintenance Management
  • Management of Change (MOC)
  • NERC Compliance
  • Operating procedures
  • PHA Action Tracking
  • Pipeline Inspections
  • Process Safety Management (PSM) programs
  • Training
  • Accelerated the approval process by running parallel processing - while the environmental hazard team assesses the request
  • Improved knowledge management, succession planning and legal audits by retaining all attachments - CAD drawings, policies and procedure guides, manuals, graphics - together in one place
  • Enforced rules and policies - no skipping steps, no uncertified people
  • Ran productivity, environmental impact and financial analyses by tracing processes from design time to close and facility decommission or sell-off
  • Improved long-term safety and maintenance by retaining a complete log of MOC actions-the requests made, subsequent changes and those involved
  • Mapped policies to technical controls and automated the auditing and regulatory reporting of those controls
  • Improved collaboration and knowledge management by linking policy users and policy creators through comments, amendments, additions and policy approvals
  • Organized policies and procedures by functional groups, life-cycles or best practices (COBIT, ITIL/ISO 27001)

"BizFlow® is great for streamlining not only Management of Change, but additional processes such as Incident Investigation, PHA Action Tracking, Engineering Requests and Expenditure Authorizations. The ability to automate any number of processes with BizFlow® allows companies to leverage the training and application costs of a single application across multiple processes. And with BizFlow® everyone gains visibility into the process.”
