PHA Manager

Greater detail, increased efficiency

Much of the data gathered during a typical PHA is simply discarded. What if you could use that data as a foundation for future studies? Export it into plant systems? Leverage it for LOPA calculations? Now you can.

Berwanger’s Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) Manager software helps ensure accurate, efficient and detailed PHA documentation. And, PHA Manager’s database encapsulates study results in a platform you can continue to use

• Patented import/export capabilities
• Users can import a range of data (equipment, drawings, the client risk matrix, alarms, and relief devices) and interlock directly into PHA Manager, reducing documentation time and transcription errors
• PHA data can be exported to plant systems or action tracking software, used for LOPA studies, integrated with management of change (MOC) processes and more
• PHA Manager enables corporate-wide user access to customized reports, increasing return on investment and maximizing usage of critical safety and risk data
• PHA Manager leverages existing electronic plant data saving time and effort
• PHA Manager integrates fully with LOPA manager, shortening analyses time and effort

LOPA Manager

Consistency delivers dependability

Berwanger’s Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA) Manager software is the first relational database to support SIL Assignment and semi-quantitative risk assessment. LOPA Manager can be used to perform an initial study or as a follow-up to a PHA study done in-house or by another firm.

The best value and results are achieved when data from PHA Manager is imported into LOPA Manager.

This import capability saves time by eliminating the need for new PHA documentation for the LOPA study. Using preloaded data for a LOPA study also reduces study length, encouraging greater focus and more consistent application of company safety standards.

• LOPA Manager imports causes, consequences and preliminary risk ranking directly from PHA Manager or from other PHA reports when in standard Word, Excel, or Access format
• Prior to the LOPA study, tables are populated with company-defined data for levels of risk, initiating causes and their frequencies, and types of safeguards and their allowable risk reduction credit
• LOPA manager consolidates PHA scenario descriptions and frequency data into a single view, enabling study participants to quickly and easily select the quantitative elements that go into the LOPA calculation
