Modernising Permit to Work Systems for Efficient Third-Party Access
Large transport hubs depend on robust permit and access processes to keep complex operations running safely and efficiently. With significant third‑party activity taking place across secure environments, reliable systems and clear oversight are essential to maintaining compliance and minimising operational risk.
At a major UK airport, reliance on contractors had increased steadily, but the technology supporting Permit to Work processes had not kept pace. The existing platform was reaching the end of its life, creating inefficiencies and limiting the airport’s ability to manage access securely at scale.
Platform Smart worked with the airport to design and deliver a modern replacement aligned to operational and regulatory requirements. The new solution was introduced through a carefully managed transition, ensuring continuity of access while improving governance and visibility.
The result was a streamlined, future‑ready Permit to Work capability that strengthened compliance, reduced risk, and provided a scalable foundation for ongoing operational demands.
