LOTO & Energized Work Governance

AI-driven oversight for LOTO and energized work—governance begins before the first switch is thrown.
VIRA™ Predict governs Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) and energized work processes through real-time telemetry, workflow verification, and procedural enforcement. The platform ensures that all energized activities — from switching operations to temporary bypasses — comply with predefined safety protocols, reducing human error and eliminating undocumented deviations.
Our AI engine continuously evaluates switching sequences, panel access, and isolation boundaries, comparing them to the planned MOP and LOTO strategy. Unauthorized energization attempts, skipped hold points, and missing approvals trigger escalation workflows that mitigate the risk before a failure occurs.
By embedding governance logic into the MOP approval and energization execution phases, VIRA™ Predict transforms LOTO from a checklist task into a live safety control system.
VIRA™ monitors panel-level telemetry and access logs to verify that energized work is conducted only in approved zones, during approved timeframes.
Cross-verifies lock status, tag application, and breaker state before energization. AI flags conflicts between planned LOTO paths and actual execution.
Any attempt to bypass LOTO steps or override interlocks is logged, escalated, and tagged for incident review via RCA pathways.
Defines and enforces high-risk energization timeframes, ensuring all approvals and safety controls are met before critical systems go live.

Get Answers to Common Questions About VIRA™ Predict’s LOTO & Energized Work Governance
Explore key questions around how VIRA™ Predict governs energized work and LOTO procedures through telemetry, automation, and escalation logic. Our platform replaces static permits with intelligent safety controls that intervene before something goes wrong.
VIRA™ Predict verifies LOTO status by comparing telemetry inputs (e.g., breaker positions, tag IDs, lock states) against the approved MOP and LOTO plan. It detects and escalates any unauthorized changes, missing isolation points, or skipped hold steps — before energization proceeds.
The platform flags any deviations from the approved sequence — including forced overrides or tag removals — and triggers an automated escalation. All attempts are logged, time-stamped, and routed to the responsible safety authority for real-time resolution and post-event RCA.
Commissioning agents, electrical supervisors, and energy marshals use the platform to validate switching actions, verify procedural integrity, and enforce energization windows. Owners and HSE leads rely on VIRA™ to ensure compliance with site-specific governance requirements.
