Process Safety Management Software Solutions
A connected operating model for all four foundation blocks and 20 elements of CCPS Risk-Based Process Safety.
FACILEX® provides configurable applications, controlled information, workflows and accountability across the complete RBPS framework. It also supports organizations working to meet the 14 elements of OSHA Process Safety Management under 29 CFR 1910.119. Start with priority processes and expand within a connected management system.
Explore FACILEX® SolutionsProcess safety is not a collection of isolated applications.
Management of Change, hazard analysis, procedures, training, incident investigations, audits and corrective actions depend on shared information and coordinated decisions. When these activities operate in separate systems, important relationships and responsibilities can be difficult to maintain.
CCPS Risk-Based Process Safety provides a comprehensive management framework. Implementing it requires practical business processes, clear accountability and a way to demonstrate that activities are completed and sustained.
FACILEX® supports a connected approach, with configurable workflows that reflect the way individual facilities operate.
- How are all four CCPS RBPS pillars supported?
- How do related records, hazards, changes and actions connect?
- Can workflows reflect different plants and local requirements?
- Who is responsible for each review, approval and action?
- How are current status and supporting evidence retrieved?
- Can the system expand without creating new information silos?

Four foundation blocks. Twenty elements. One connected approach.
Explore how FACILEX® applications and shared platform capabilities support the full RBPS framework. Individual elements may be served by several connected applications rather than one dedicated product.
Four foundation blocks support twenty elements of process safety.
The familiar CCPS temple represents a complete Risk-Based Process Safety management system. The four colored foundation blocks organize 20 management-system elements. FACILEX® solutions address these elements through connected applications and shared capabilities rather than twenty isolated software products.
Twenty RBPS elements. Fourteen OSHA PSM elements.
CCPS Risk-Based Process Safety is a broader management-system framework organized into four foundation blocks and 20 elements. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.119 establishes 14 regulatory elements for covered processes. The frameworks overlap substantially, but they are not identical or interchangeable.
- Implement requirements for covered OSHA PSM processes
- Build a broader CCPS-aligned RBPS operating model
- Connect workflows, evidence, risk and responsibilities
- Configure by facility, jurisdiction and operating context
