Why smart LOTO

Lockout/Tagout that works like everything else

Traditional LOTO lives in paper records and manual coordination. Safe Sync provides real-time status of your critical equipment, documents every LOTO event, and provides insights visible across your organization.

Reduce Downtime

Eliminate manual logging. Coordinate between workers, shifts, and sites. Complete maintenance tasks faster and more efficiently.

Gain Visibility

Track metrics by equipment, site, and team. Trace performance against targets. Measure patterns across equipment, shift, and facility.

Reduce Risk

Avoid OSHA violations. Eliminate uncertainty that results in injuries and near misses. Lower insurance premiums.

How it works

Complete lockout context, integrated with your existing procedures

  1. 1

    Check Out

    A worker checks out a Smart Lock. It is now assigned to them.

  2. 2

    Activate

    The lock is placed at the isolation point, associating it with the equipment, and the lockout is recorded. Workers associated with that equipment receive a push notification that the equipment is now locked out.

  3. 3

    Deactivate

    When work is complete, the lock is removed, deactivating the lockout. The end time of the lockout is recorded and workers associated with the equipment receive a push notification that the lock has been removed.

  4. 4

    Check In

    The worker checks the lock in and it returns to the pool of available locks. The full timeline is preserved in the dashboard and reporting.
