Digital Safety Permit (SIK) System
A safety permit platform that digitizes SIK workflows from job creation and risk assessment to multi-role approvals and audit-ready records.
Live in productionSafety & complianceHigh-risk work permits
Context
Operations with frequent maintenance and project work requiring controlled permits and risk mitigation.
Scope
Full SIK lifecycle: job definition, job type, risk evaluation, controls, approvals, validity, and closure.
Users
Requestors, supervisors, safety officers, line owners, and managers.
Challenges
- Paper-based SIK forms made it difficult to track permit status and responsibilities in real time.
- Limited visibility on which jobs were active, on-hold, or overdue at a given location or line.
- Hard to reconstruct a complete history for audits: who approved what and when, with which controls.
Solution
PT. Pionir Inovasi Digital implemented a configurable digital SIK system that reflects existing safety standards while adding clarity and structure.
- Digital job & job-type setup including risk categories, required controls, and supporting documentation.
- Multi-step approvals across requestor, line owner, safety, and management with clear timestamps.
- Validity management for permits with clear active, expired, and closed states.
- Audit logs capturing key changes to ensure traceability for internal and external reviews.
Impact

All open permits can be monitored by status, location, and job type from a single system.
Compliance
