Who authorised the hot works?

Hot works started at 2pm on Thursday. Who authorised it, and when does that authorisation run out?

On most sites that answer lives on a paper permit, in a folder, in a cabin.

Wouldn't it be great if you could:

— See every live permit on one register, from anywhere

— Have outstanding permits show on the dashboard before anyone asks

— Keep the authorisation, the expiry and the close-out attached to the job

Permits carry the highest consequence of any paperwork on site. Hot works, confined space, excavation, electrical isolation, roof work. They are also the easiest to issue verbally under time pressure and write up afterwards, if at all.

PC Site Manager keeps a register covering all five, with the authorising person, the validity window and the close-out recorded against each. Open permits sit on the dashboard alongside overdue actions and unapproved RAMS, so the daily picture is one screen rather than five folders.

If a permit expired at 4pm and the work carried on, would your system know?

PC Site Manager launches on Monday 7 September 2026. Get in touch and we will set it up on a live project of your own.
