Long-established process-engineering group that supplies an external, BG RCI-certified HAZOP leader and scribe to run PAAG/HAZOP risk analyses — an option for plant planners and operators across German-speaking Europe who want the study chaired from outside their own team.

Interdisciplinary engineering house that organises, moderates and documents HAZOP/PAAG risk analyses with an external team — a fit for process plants (notably sugar, food and chemicals) wanting the study run within a wider engineering practice.

Environment-and-safety consultancy whose experienced moderators run PAAG/HAZOP workshops — applying guide words with a client's own experts to surface deviations — for process plants in central Germany.

A Swiss plant- and process-safety boutique whose HAZOP, LOPA, SIL and FMEA workshops are moderated by specialists with chemical- and plant-engineering backgrounds — a fit for chemical, pharmaceutical and process-industry operators in the Alpine region wanting risk studies delivered as living operational documents, in German, English or French.

An independent German process-safety engineer who pairs PAAG/HAZOP moderation with Seveso/Störfall safety reporting and functional safety — a fit for German-regulated sites wanting a single independent facilitator conversant with StörfallV and IEC 61511.

An independent engineer who combines HAZOP moderation with hands-on plant-engineering and commissioning work — a fit for smaller German plant and water-treatment projects wanting a facilitator who also knows how the plant is built.

A process safety specialist that both leads PHA studies and joins them as a subject-matter participant — a fit for pharmaceutical, chemical, food and metals operators who want an experienced facilitator for a HAZOP, What-If or FMEA, a revalidation of an existing study, or dust- and reactive-hazard expertise brought into the review team.

Independent, vendor-neutral process- and machine-safety consultancy based in the UK and serving clients globally, offering HAZOP, HAZID and LOPA facilitation plus functional-safety engineering — a fit for operators wanting PHA led by functional-safety specialists.

A large environmental and engineering consultancy whose process-safety team has facilitated hundreds of PHAs — HAZOP, LOPA, FMEA and What-If — with remote or co-located facilitation, scribing, revalidation and QA/QC review, a fit for US and international operators wanting facilitation backed by a full PSM/RMP compliance practice.

A specialist risk-management consultancy (part of TUV Rheinland) with a large pool of client-approved HAZOP/PHA and LOPA chairs and proficient scribes, working from offices in the UK, Netherlands, Middle East (Doha, Dubai), Southeast Asia (Kuala Lumpur, Singapore) and North America — a fit for operators wanting facilitation from an established international bench across high-hazard industries.

An Ireland- and UK-based process-safety consultancy of long standing whose fully facilitated HAZOP/PHA studies are led by experienced, independent chairs — a fit for chemical and pharmaceutical operators wanting a neutral facilitator focused on loss-of-containment, fire, explosion and toxic-release scenarios.

A UK functional-safety specialist (IEC 61508 / 61511) whose HAZOP studies are led by several experienced, operator-approved HAZOP chairs and recorded in its own ProSET PHAComp software — a fit for onshore and offshore projects that need PHA joined up with SIL determination and verification.

A Nigerian process- and loss-prevention engineering firm based in Warri offering HAZOP/PHA facilitation alongside SIL, LOPA, HAZID and QRA work — one of the few options for operators wanting facilitation sourced from within the Niger Delta industrial belt.

Turin-based process-safety consultancy running HAZOP and other PHA workshops with a chairman and scribe, in person or by video-conference, and folding in semi-quantitative risk assessment and LOPA — a fit for Italian and continental-European chemical and petrochemical operators.
