Flexible & simple system designed for plant owners & project management companies. Software values man, material, time & productivity.
✔ Scaffold request capturing and approval workflows shall be converted to electronic format. All the authorities shall have their own dashboards, to act on each request with single click only. Data capturing forms & workflows shall be customized to adopt existing core procedure, to reduce hurdles implementing system for all.
✔ After work completion (scaffold erection/modification/dismantle) by scaffold team, its data shall be collected from field; such as scaffold actual dimension, team members, number of man-hours utilized, material being used, non-productive hours spent, photographs of built scaffold. Based on these data at different stage of scaffold life cycle, various statuses shall be tracked in the system and shall be available to authorized users with ease of access.

Scaffolding
Management Software (SMS)
Management of Scaffolding requests, their approval, production and material inventory
effectively and efficiently. System supports the full cycle of scaffolding management and
comeswithacustomizedwork-flowtovalidatestepstopromotesafeworkingpractices.
SMS controls the sequence of status changes a request is moved through during its lifecycle
with its flow-engine. The software provides facility to authorized parties to mention all
necessary procedures and authorization are completed before moving to the next stage in
thesequence.

Manual cycle of Scaffold management shall be converted into the electronic one.Authorities involved in
Scaffold life cycle will interact with each other using software in-place of email/phone-calls.This feature
helps to increase transparency among users and saves significant time of users of interacting with each
other.Data capturing forms & workflows shall be customized to adopt existing core procedure,to reduce
hurdlesimplementingsystemforall.
Easy communication, collaboration and
tracking of complete scaffold life cycle
6. Identification of Bottlenecks
Floor Map Marking Tool with live data feeds
Floor Map is a decision making tool, which
displays the current situation of all Scaffolds
with their exact position. Plant drawings or
general assembly drawings shall be used as a
baseimageoffloormaptool.
Selection of exact location on floor map to
erect/modifyScaffold
Floor Map displays standing scaffold with
theirexactlocationandphotographs
Display date of latest erection/
modification
Colour coding. E.g. standing scaffold – red,
requested scaffold – green, hard
barricade/cover open holes request –
yellow.
It will display area covered by specific
scaffold, access points, progress status,
inspection tag status, when last modified,
photographs and estimated remaining
numberofuptimedays
Requestor can take pictures of exact location and can
mark/draw/annotatehisrequirementsonpictureitself.
Requestor can point-out the equipment on which
Scaffold required, and can draw proposed scaffold
structure. Feature allows multiple pictures within a
request,which helps to present different angles/views
to the concerned authority. It has annotation facilities
like–pen,rectangle,lines,eraser,colours,etc.Multiple
images from different angles & places helps to identify
hazards may arise due to nearby equipment/ material/
environment.
Because of this tool,approving authorities & executing
party come to know exact requirement of requestor,
hazards associated with location, complication

Identifying non-productive hours in production report helps authorities to focus on aligning other
areaslikepermitissuance,scopechange,man/materialrestrictions,etc…
Planning team shall have estimates of non-productive hours from past history, which will help for

Efficient usage of scaffold materials
Based on tentative up-time provided by scaffold requestor, scaffold department can plan dismantling scaffolds on
time. It also has mechanism of alerting concern authorities, when any scaffold is not being modified since defined
period.These mechanisms reduces occurrences of unused on-field scaffolds,which leads to freeing space at working

10. System
Configuration
A core design goal of SMS is to provide you with a system that adapts to your process and required forms and
checklists,rather than forcing procedural change to match the software.The architecture allows the system to be
configured precise requirements using instruction sets that are utilized by you. Some of the common
configurationfeaturesare;
01 Ability to operate client specific forms for all document types in the form of software screens that
closely represents the paper erection, modification & dismantle requests.The system supports any
type of scaffold,which has its own layout,logic and data to provide users with immediate familiarity
andrulebased.
REQUEST FORMS & CHECKLISTS
02 The format of printed requests and reports is also client specific.ASK-EHS has implemented different
sizes,colour,styles,watermarks,single/doublesideandcontinuationsheethandlingonmanyprinter
types.
HARD COPY OF REQUESTS & REPORTS
03 The layout & drawings of floor-map represents your specific site and can be deployed by
administrator in the system.Projects hierarchy can also be decided specific to client procedures and
processes
FLOOR MAP DRAWINGS
04 Ability to assign specific roles and rights to authorized persons to view, add, edit SMS system at
variousstages
USER ROLES & RIGHTS
05 SMS system is open for integration to other systems.The multi-tier object-oriented architecture with
itsfullyexposedAPIsisdesignedtocommunicatewithothersystems.
INTEGRATION
Adopting an electronic Scaffolding Management System can substantially contribute to the
goalofoperatingexcellencewhilereducingoperationalcostsrelativelywell.
In summary, benefits are based on more effective and efficient administration systems to
enforce procedures prior to, during and after work activities as well as identifying areas of
improvementduetobetteranalyticalresults.
