Case studies

ThermoFisher Scientific - iPermit

As part of a major digital transformation initiative at its Swindon pharmaceutical manufacturing site, ThermoFisher Scientific implemented IAMTech’s iPermit electronic permit-to-work (ePTW) software. The objective was to reduce operational errors, increase efficiency, and bring greater control and transparency to lab and plant maintenance activities.

The Brief

In a highly regulated environment where precision, safety, and compliance are paramount, ThermoFisher needed a robust digital solution to replace legacy paper-based permit systems. Traditional processes created gaps in communication between lab supervisors, operators, and maintenance crews, often leading to delays, miscommunication, and increased risk.

The Solution

With iPermit, ThermoFisher centralised permit management into one fully digital, auditable platform. The system delivers real-time visibility of all active permits, clearly outlines roles and responsibilities, and ensures that all hazards, isolations, and safety controls are communicated and approved prior to work starting.

This streamlined approach to permit control has improved operational clarity and accountability across the Swindon site. Maintenance crews now gain instant access to approved permits, reducing wasted tool time and helping to keep pharmaceutical production on schedule.

The software has also enhanced ThermoFisher’s ability to meet compliance standards by automating record-keeping and enabling data-driven safety oversight.
