WHITEPAPER
PPS Outsourcing
A Goverance primer
As regulatory pressure increases and qualified safety expertise becomes scarce, many organizations are outsourcing critical Process & Plant Safety (PPS) activities. Too often, this shifts risk invisibly instead of reducing it.
This white paper addresses a central question facing boards and executives:
How can safety-critical work be outsourced without eroding accountability?
It presents a structured governance framework covering Grey-Zone task classification, accountability models (RACI), provider selection, contract design, continuous oversight, and ESG integration — supported by practical tools and real-world failure cases.
This is not a technical manual. It is a governance guide for leaders responsible for licence to operate — and licence to grow.
CHECKLIST
Are You Ready to Externalize Safely?
A 5-minute executive snapshot to assess whether your organization is structurally ready to outsource Process & Plant Safety (PPS) activities without increasing risk exposure.
This checklist focuses on governance fundamentals — accountability, decision rights, internal oversight, and critical interfaces — not on vendor performance or technical execution.
Execution can be outsourced. Accountability cannot.
