Mitigate Fatigue. Support Controller Effectiveness
Fatigue in the control room is a documented contributor to pipeline safety issues. Our goal is to help prevent incidents by providing your operation with valuable tools and resources to support fatigue mitigation.
We believe that operators need to take a holistic approach to fatigue management in order to operate safely and in natural compliance with the PHMSA Control Room Management Rule (CRM Rule). Through our support, operators can implement fatigue mitigation strategies and manage controller workload to ensure controller alertness.
We help answer these questions. Is your fatigue management program complete? Are your managers trained on how to support the program? Are your controllers trained on the effects of fatigue? Gaps in any of these areas could lead to pipeline safety risks, non-conformance with the CRM Rule, fines for your operation, and inefficiencies managing controller workload.
We provide a complete solution to manage HOS deviations, controller scheduling, and workload analysis to optimize your fatigue mitigation program and proactively identify risk areas to support safe operations. Consider the opportunity to achieve positive outcomes from your fatigue mitigation program.
