Case Study: a large national manufacturing company improves permit and compliance management with Beakon Software

Large National Manufacturing Company - Customer Case Study

The large national manufacturing company faced significant challenges in managing its complex safety, risk, and compliance protocols across its 24/7 operations. Their highly administrative and inconsistent manual systems for permits, high-risk work, and energy isolations were identified as a key area for improvement, prompting them to seek a robust software solution. They selected Beakon to implement its Permit to Work, High-Risk Work, and Isolation Register modules.

Beakon implemented its cloud-based software in a phased approach, starting with a pilot site to configure its out-of-the-box, ISO-based framework. The solution provided a centralized, mobile-friendly platform for managing all permit activities with automated workflows and real-time reporting. The results included the complete replacement of a manual Excel system, an estimated headcount reduction of four FTEs, and the development of a best-practice safety protocol, all delivered on time and within budget.
