Permits

Safety-critical permits, digital and in one place.

Stop juggling risk and start centralizing control. Give your crew one single source of truth for all permits, streamlining approvals and managing risk.

Real-time alerts for expiration and action

Built-in review and approvals

Verifiable audit trail

Stop permits from wandering off.

Stop juggling risk

Permits are where risk is managed, but chasing them through scattered modules, emails, and spreadsheets is a nightmare. Eliminate risk and compliance slips caused by messy, scattered permit tracking across multiple jobsites.

Accountability without the nagging

Open or expired permits are a safety and liability nightmare. By giving every worker access to safety processes and data on their own phone, Breadcrumb makes safety a shared responsibility – not one person ticking boxes alone. You see who’s compliant, who’s dragging their feet and where action’s needed in seconds.

Digital docs that stay put

Replace wasted time and "what's overdue?" confusion with a single, centralized command center for all permit statuses and documents.

One hub, zero headaches.

Stop wasting time hunting for permit documentation every time an audit or review is required. Breadcrumb  gives you the single command center your teams have been asking for. Track all permit types and statuses (Open, On-Hold, Closed) together in one place, and generate one complete, auditable PDF for regulators. Every submission is time-stamped and stored safely, creating a full, verifiable audit trail.

Real-time alerts with no missed deadlines and no wasted time.

The only surprises on a jobsite should be the concrete pour schedule, not lapsed permits or delayed approvals. Breadcrumb flags upcoming expiries before they bite. Get real-time notifications when a permit needs approval or is approaching expiration. And with direct control over the Review/Approve/Reject process, time chasing documents is slashed and accountability is always in check.

Full coverage that keeps your compliance in check.

Are your permits truly connected? Siloed safety data is a recipe for compliance gaps, exposing your projects and crew to risk during audits. Small documentation errors can threaten the stability of your site safety and build toward future risk actions. Our permits feature seamlessly connects with Orientations, Checklists, and Toolbox Talks building a richer, connected safety profile for every worker and jobsite. Every submission is time-stamped and stored safely, maintaining complete coverage across your projects.

Empower your foremen.

Give your foremen complete control and efficiency over the process. A designated foreman can apply for a necessary permit and instantly add their competent crew to the submission, maintaining compliance and saving critical time in the process. The foreman can easily collect all required signatures directly within the system before submitting the complete package for final approval. No more missing signatures, no more delays.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions.

How does Breadcrumb handle permits?

Breadcrumb digitizes the entire permit-to-work process, ensuring fast, compliant, and paperless site operations.

Permits can be initiated either by individual workers or by a designated foreman who can then quickly add their competent crew members directly to the submission. All necessary approvals are streamlined through digital signatures collected within the system, allowing the application to be submitted instantly for final approval.

How are permits stored?

All permits, including associated crew lists, sign-offs, and revisions, are stored securely in Breadcrumb’s centralized, cloud-based application. This ensures every document is fully traceable, audit-ready, and accessible instantly from any device by authorized personnel. This system replaces paper files, guaranteeing that permits are never lost, are always backed up, and provide a complete, time-stamped digital audit trail for all regulatory and safety reviews.

Does this process meet US regulatory (OSHA) documentation standards?

Yes. Breadcrumb is designed to provide the robust documentation and digital audit trail required by US regulatory bodies, including OSHA. By centralizing permit applications, collecting time-stamped digital signatures, and securely storing every revision, approval, and crew member detail in the cloud, the system ensures that you have immediate access to complete, unalterable documentation that meets the requirements for a compliant Permit-Required Confined Space (PRCS) or Hot Work permit program, as well as general safety documentation.
