Process Safety Management

Continuous Improvement with Safety Lifecycle Management Work Processes

APM Safety, part of GE Vernova’s Asset Performance Management (APM), is designed to help users identify and mitigate process safety hazards, manage critical safety instrumentation, and support equipment and process changes that can increase safety risk.

With APM Safety, users can:

Align and integrate safety lifecycle management initiatives with corporate asset hierarchy, Enterprise Asset Management (EAM), and APM programs to help enhance operational efficiency.
Help identify and mitigate hidden risk by carrying out hazard analysis of critical systems and determining required safety instrumentation levels.
Help lower catastrophic incident probability with SIS Management, including SIL Assessment, Verification, and Validation.
Support process and equipment change projects to improve documentation/record compliance across the enterprise.

Asset Performance Management Safety Outcomes

Reveal hidden safety issues that may cause catastrophic incidents
Better design helps reduce maintenance costs for each Safety Instrumented Function (SIF)
Lengthen proof test interval and eliminate production losses
Seamless integration with other APM applications such as APM Health to monitor the health of SIFs, APM Reliability to investigate Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) and instrumentation failures, and APM Strategy to view risks associated with Hazard and Operability Studies (HAZOP)

Key Features in APM Safety

Hazard Analysis: The hazard analysis capability is both a regulatory requirement and an integral part of an overall risk management process — focused on helping users identify and assess risks and manage the reduction of those risks.
Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) Management: GE Vernova’s SIS Management capability is designed to help customers address the need to maintain and manage the reliability and performance of critical process instrumentation and safety instrumented systems as well as help address compliance requirements.
Management of Change (MOC): GE Vernova’s MOC is a flexible solution engineered to help create and manage change projects, communicate changes to team members, and enforce an approval system to help provide accountability for the change.
