IDiSS provides a digital lockout/tagout system that replaces mechanical LOTO devices with NFC‑enabled smart locks managed through a web console and mobile apps. The platform records timestamped lock/unlock events, offers real‑time equipment status dashboards, and integrates with EAM/CMMS systems to support safety compliance and reduce downtime for heavy‑industry operations.

Problem
Industrial lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures often suffer from missed or improperly applied safety isolations, lack of real‑time visibility of lock status, and reliance on manual keys that can be broken or left unsecured, leading to increased human error and production downtime.
Solution
IDiSS replaces traditional mechanical LOTO devices with a digital platform that combines NFC‑enabled smart locks, a web‑based management console, and mobile applications. Operators authenticate with NFC tags or mobile credentials, apply digital locks, and receive step‑by‑step guidance through the shutdown workflow. The system records every lock and unlock event, providing an auditable, timestamped trail accessible to supervisors in real time. Integrated touch‑screen information panels display current lock status on equipment, eliminating ambiguity and preventing accidental re‑energization. Cloud‑hosted analytics aggregate lockout data to identify bottlenecks, support continuous improvement, and ensure compliance with safety standards. Optional implementation services include on‑site training and turnkey deployment to align the solution with existing maintenance processes.
Target Audience
The primary customers are safety managers, maintenance engineers, and operations teams in heavy‑industry sectors such as paper, energy, chemicals, and manufacturing that require rigorous LOTO and shutdown control.
