Paper Permits Are Slowing You Down

Time Wasted

Manual handwritten permits create delays, timeouts, and approval bottlenecks that halt critical maintenance work.

Human Error

Typographical mistakes, illegible handwriting, and missed expirations render permits invalid - risking safety and compliance.

No Visibility

Without centralized records, tracking active permits, analyzing trends, and preparing for audits becomes a manual nightmare.

A Digital PTW System Built for Maritime Operations

Safety Central is a mobile-first permit management platform designed specifically for ships and shipyards. It transforms high-risk work authorization from a paper burden into a streamlined digital process - delivering faster approvals, complete traceability, and audit-ready compliance.

Mobile-Optimized Workflows

Users create permits in 8 fast steps on phones or tablets. Approvers receive instant notifications, perform on-site inspections, and authorize with a single tap.

Secure & Traceable

Every permit generates a unique QR code for verification. Digital signatures, timestamps, and electronic checklists create a complete audit trail.

Centralized Control

Admins monitor all active permits in real-time, suspend work by zone or vessel-wide, and access historical data for incident analysis and compliance reporting.
