Developed with industry in mind
The EX application was developed in close cooperation with experienced field professionals and key clients. It addresses the pain points of traditional Ex inspection methods: inconsistent documentation, manual data entry, and limited traceability. The goal was to create a modern tool that digitises and streamlines Ex inspections, ensures compliance with ATEX and IECEx standards, and delivers reliable, real-time insights.

End-to-end Ex inspection management
With a single, intuitive platform, inspection teams can plan, execute, and follow up on Ex inspections. Designed with user-friendliness in mind, the application supports the full lifecycle of inspections, from initial tagging and classification of equipment to condition assessments, reporting of findings, and corrective action tracking. Integrated checklists and tagging options ensure no detail is missed, while standardisation improves data quality, consistency, and audit readiness.

Whether used by asset owners, operators, or third-party inspection companies, EX enhances collaboration, traceability, and compliance. A dynamic dashboard offers instant visibility into inspection progress, equipment status, and overdue actions across individual assets or entire portfolios. Findings are enriched with photos, notes, and Ex-specific metadata, enabling faster, more accurate follow-ups. To support deeper analysis, reports can be customised, exported, and visualised via Power BI.

To minimise administrative burden and maximise value, EX integrates seamlessly with existing maintenance management systems, reducing duplication and ensures alignment through one-way or two-way data exchange.

Raising the bar for safety
Used by leading industry players worldwide, the EX application is continuously evolving to meet the changing needs of hazardous area inspection teams.

Regular, consistent inspections are vital for reducing the risk of explosions and maintaining the integrity of electrical and mechanical installations in hazardous environments. EX helps companies improve the quality and consistency of their inspections, reduce non-compliance risks, and achieve better safety outcomes.

By promoting the crew’s understanding of hazardous area requirements, EX also promotes more proactive behaviour, reducing risks related to both installation and day-to-day operations.

EX is part of the Bridge inspection software suite, an all-in-one solution for comprehensive asset integrity management. The Bridge suite also includes other applications, such as eDROPS, EQUIP, NDT, 3DView, PSV&IC, Pipe, and more, offering a fully integrated approach to asset integrity management.
