Course Introduction
Operational integrity is the backbone of safe, reliable, and cost-effective industrial performance. It encompasses a structured approach to managing risk, maintaining asset reliability, and ensuring compliance across operations. As regulatory pressures grow and stakeholder expectations rise, organizations must embed operational integrity into every layer of their systems and processes.
This 5-day intensive course delivers a comprehensive framework for implementing and enhancing Operational Integrity Management Systems (OIMS). Participants will gain hands-on tools, best practices, and global benchmarks to prevent incidents, reduce downtime, and build a culture of operational discipline and sustainability.
Course Objectives
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
• Understand the core principles and components of Operational Integrity Management
• Apply risk-based approaches to manage safety, reliability, and compliance
• Design and implement an effective OIMS framework aligned with ISO, API, and OSHA guidelines
• Identify and control operational hazards and performance vulnerabilities
• Measure, monitor, and continuously improve operational integrity performance
Key Benefits of Attending
• Enhance safety and reliability while reducing operational risks
• Ensure regulatory compliance and avoid major incident liabilities
• Strengthen internal governance and performance accountability
• Implement best practices from global OIMS frameworks (e.g., API RP 754, ISO 55000, OSHA PSM)
• Equip yourself with practical tools for hazard control and performance improvement
Intended Audience
This program is designed for:
• Operations and Maintenance Managers
