Hot work
Oxy-fuel set-up, cutting and fire watch steps with a short video of each one.
Hot work, enclosed spaces and multilingual crews, covered at the point of work
Subtilitas started in a shipyard. Its first guide was an oxy cutter check written for ship dismantling crews in a research project, who needed short, clear steps at the place the work happened rather than in a classroom.
Where it helps in the yard
Enclosed spaces
Permit steps at the hatch, including gas testing, the attendant's checks and the rescue set-up.
Multilingual crews
Write guides in the languages your crew reads, so nothing gets lost between the supervisor and the crew.
Subcontractors mid-project
New trades joining the vessel follow your procedures from the first shift, and you have the record.

Questions from shipyards teams
See pricing, or read about Subtilitas for maintenance, demolition, renewables and manufacturing.
Can crews read guides in their own language?
The app's buttons and menus are in English, Polish and Romanian, and you can write each guide in any of 18 languages. Have someone fluent check a translated guide before you rely on it for a safety-critical step.
Does it replace our hot work or enclosed space permits?
No, your permit system stays as it is. Subtilitas puts the steps in front of the crew at the hatch or the gas cage, and records who followed them.
Put the oxy cutter check on your gas cage for 30 days
