Ischia Solutions Limited and the ExAMS Asset Management System

ExAMS is an Asset, System and Location management software which is specifically tailored to hazardous area applications. It allows a completely paperless work flow with all predefined ATEX inspections to BS60079-17-2007. The system can also be used for non-hazardous area applications and we are currently developing the system for use with mechanical assets.

The flexible, innovative software is designed by CompEx engineers for engineers to carry out Ex Inspections. (Read More) Extremely user friendly, the application follows a simple workflow. The software stays updated with amendments to directives and regulations, helping maintain H&S requirements.

The ExAMS solution can revolutionise your data capture, inspection and verification to simultaneously meet regulatory and operational requirements. The software is scalable from a single installation to a global solution that ensures consistency of process and shared information, saving costs and fostering the one business vision.

Exams also allows you to create ‘User Tasks’ this enables the user to define their own inspections/routine for any ‘Asset’ ‘System’ or ‘Location’.

The ExAMS software is used with hand held devices to Zone 1 which can also be used in conjunction with RFID tagging. This software is a very powerful tool which allows all of your site inspection routines to be carried out paperless and more efficiently.

Today, companies such as Murco Petroleum Tincknell Fuels, Stena Drilling, Valero and many others are enjoying the benefits of ExAMS.

Ischia Solutions Case Study

Following the Buncefield, Disaster, many failings were established including:

Systems for managing the filling of industrial tanks of petrol were both deficient and not fully implemented
A culture developed where keeping operations going was more important than safe processes, which did not get the attention, resources or priority status they required. A report by published by Gordon MacDonald, the chairman of the COMAH Competent Authority Strategic Management Group, stated: ‘Companies that work in a high hazardous industry need to have strong safety systems in place, underpinned by the right safety culture’

Solution

• Help create a safety culture by simplifying inspection systems, and providing easy access to reports. ExAMS offers the paperless solution, ensuring vital routine procedures are captured, and simple access to audit reports and the History of the safety inspections of Systems.
• Using the ‘User Task’ module the System inspections can be created by the user.
• Scheduling Calendar can be used to ensure routine inspections are not overlooked, and that each safety device has been captured for the inspection process.
• Mobile devise used to allow a paperless flow for logging results of the tests, and synchronizing with the main Software.
• Use of RFID Tags and Scanners used to verify safety devices has been visited for an inspection.
• Comprehensive reporting for Audit Logs, Testing History of the System and individual safety devices.
• Remedial actions carried out in a Paperless workflow, updating the status of a System or device.
