LivePOB

Operational Visibility for Safety-Critical Operations

Every Person Accounted For.
Every Site Visible.
Every Incident Documented.

LivePOB ends the 200-year-old muster point. During an incident your people report SAFE or HELP from wherever they are safest — on any phone, with no app and no site hardware. Anyone who has not reported stays visibly unaccounted for until contacted or found. No assumptions. No phantom personnel.

The New Doctrine

The muster point is 200 years old.
Your emergency isn’t.

Fixed-point mustering was written for a world of fires and small, stable workforces. Today’s operations are distributed, contractor-intensive and under threats that make a predictable gathering of hundreds of people a risk in itself. LivePOB separates counting from gathering.

The Old World

Assemble · Count · Guess

  • ×

    Walk to the painted square

    For 200 years, mustering has meant one thing: leave cover, cross open ground, and stand in a published location to be counted — even when movement itself is the danger.

  • ×

    Wardens count heads

    Counts crawl through layers of human relay by radio. Absence is the only signal — and absence cannot tell a man dying from a man annoyed.

  • ×

    Phantom personnel

    Shared contractor cards and waved-through colleagues mean your board shows badges, not people. On the worst day, you are searching for ghosts.

  • ×

    Dies with the infrastructure

    Readers, servers, Wi-Fi and powered muster points may be destroyed by the very event that creates the need for accountability.

LivePOB Doctrine

The LivePOB Way

Report · Hear · Verify

  • Report from where you are safest

    People report SAFE or HELP from cover — from wherever they judge safe — on any internet-connected device. No app, no registered handset, no fixed terminal.

  • Man down? Others report for them

    An unconscious or injured person can be reported by anyone nearby — a colleague, a supervisor, even a stranger — by scanning their QR identity card. Identity lives on the card; any phone can carry the signal.

  • Missing until you report

    Anyone who has not reported remains visibly unaccounted for — a named, finite follow-up list — until they report, are contacted, or the rescue team finds them. LivePOB never silently clears a person.

  • No phantom employees

    An unassigned card is inert plastic — it passes no zone and reports no status. Every identity on a LivePOB-monitored site maps to one named human being. No phantom cards. No phantom people.

“Don’t move people to count them. Let people report from where they decide is safe — and go find the ones who can’t.

The Accountability Rule

Three states. No assumptions.

LivePOB does not infer human safety from a GPS dot, a badge swipe or a roster. When a drill or incident requires accountability, there are exactly three states — and no philosophy between them.

PENDING

Missing until you report

Every event starts with every person Pending. We have not heard from you — and the system says so in red until that changes. The Pending list is not an embarrassment; it is the emergency’s to-do list, written in names, each with a last known zone.

SAFE

Deliberately confirmed

A human being said so — with a timestamp, an identity, and a point-in-time location if they consented to share one. Not inferred from a badge swipe, a roster, or a device signal. Silence is never read as safety.

NEED HELP

The loudest signal on the board

The person said that too — and it arrives with a location your response vehicles can drive to. If they cannot tap it themselves, anyone nearby can scan their card and send it for them. Man-down is reported, not discovered at roll call.

No report means no assumption — the person reports, or the responsible team follows up until status is confirmed.

The Full Incident Lifecycle

Before. During. After.
One continuous record.

Incident reporting alone is not enough. You need the information from before, during and after the event to assess what happened, investigate it properly, and hand insurance and the authorities a concrete, timestamped story — not a reconstruction assembled under pressure.

Before

Maintain the current operational picture

Maintain a current personnel-on-board view, zone context, visitor and contractor records, assignments and multi-site oversight.

During

Focus follow-up where it is needed

Receive confirmed SAFE and HELP reports, keep non-responders visible and focus operational follow-up where it is needed.

After

Review evidence and improve operations

Review HistoricalPOB, incident records, status timestamps, transaction logs and Movement Path evidence for reporting, investigation and operational learning.

Proven Under Hostile Fire

1,300 people.
A hostile drone strike.
Sixty minutes.

November 2025. A hostile drone struck a Natural Gas Liquids tank at an operating gas facility. The tank ignited, the plant emergency shutdown triggered — and grid power took the RFID readers, on-premises servers and site Wi-Fi down within minutes. Every piece of infrastructure electronic mustering depends on was gone at the opening of the exact event that made accountability a matter of life and death.

Personnel self-mustered from wherever they were sheltering, using their QR identity on any available phone, over independent mobile carrier networks to the cloud. No app. No powered reader. No site server. No Wi-Fi. More than 1,300 people confirmed their status within the hour — and every unresolved record was investigated and closed.

The plant still runs on LivePOB today — not out of sentiment, but because on the night every alternative went dark, this one answered.

“Resilient” is the most overused word in safety technology. There is exactly one system in this category whose resilience has been demonstrated by hostile fire rather than asserted by marketing.

Platform Capabilities

One visibility layer across
people, sites and incidents.

Independent when infrastructure fails. Integrated when infrastructure is available. LivePOB consolidates identity, presence, zone context and incident status into one operational view — across plants, fields, pipelines, offshore assets and mobile teams.

Live Personnel on Board

A current POB view built from recorded entry, exit, assignment and zone events — one operational picture for employees, contractors and visitors, without continuously tracking anyone.

SelfMuster

Report SAFE or HELP from the safest available location on any connected device. No app installation, no registered handset, no proprietary emergency hardware, no powered reader.

Hard, Soft & Mobile Zones

Fixed gates and turnstiles, phone-scanned temporary work areas, and moving zones for buses, convoys and vessels. Any place where “who is in there right now?” deserves an answer gets one.

Visitors & Contractors

Approved, named, QR-carded and zone-scoped — temporary people join the same accountability process as employees. Unassigned cards simply do not work.

Multi-Site & Multi-Company

Group, company, site and zone hierarchy with role-based visibility. Each site keeps operational ownership; headquarters gets a configurable bird’s-eye view across the group.

HistoricalPOB & Movement Path

Reconstruct who was present at any point in time, and turn selected historical transactions into a visual, chronological evidence map for investigations.

24/7 Listening

Emergencies do not wait for sirens. Anyone carrying your identity can report SAFE or HELP from anywhere — onsite, offsite, at home at midnight. Never ignore a signal.

Deploy Anywhere

LivePOB cloud, dedicated customer cloud or on-premises. Carrier-independent over mobile networks, corporate internet, Wi-Fi or satellite — and integrates with existing access control and RFID where available.

What’s In It For You

One platform. Every chair at the table.

HSE / EHS Manager

Proof and reach.

  • Drills produce data instead of anecdotes — real participation by name, response-time distributions, trend lines and a named offender list.
  • Focus follow-up on the small unresolved population instead of treating the whole site as unknown.
  • Field officers scan any card and verify training validity for the work in front of them — competency checks become field practice, not office paperwork.
  • Your incident timeline writes itself: investigations start from facts, not three-day-old memories.

Security & Asset Protection

Records you would defend under oath.

  • Phantoms die: every badge inside the fence maps to one named human being, today — or it is inert plastic.
  • “Who accessed the site in this window?” becomes a filtered export in seconds — employees, contractors and visitors in one ledger.
  • Silent distress signals, mobile convoy zones and offsite reports extend your security picture beyond the fence for the first time.
  • Zone access records become evidence strong enough to close commercial disputes — one person, one company, one day, one count.

Operations / Plant Manager

“Everyone is accounted for — and I can show you.”

  • Command from a live map: zone occupancy, Pending falling, Safe rising, HELP flagged with coordinates response vehicles can drive to.
  • Faster accountability means faster all-clear means faster restart — recovered production hours across every drill and false alarm in a year.
  • Trip durations, time-on-site, confined-space durations — operational truth captured by two-second scans, typed by no one.
  • Your worst hour — production halted, families calling, media asking — compresses toward the length of a coffee.

Executive Leadership

A materially shorter worst hour.

  • A timestamped, named, exportable record of accountability performance — the difference between asserting duty of care and demonstrating it to regulators, insurers and boards.
  • No infrastructure CAPEX: the delivery mechanism is the phones your people already carry and the cards you already issue.
  • A pilot deploys in about thirty minutes alongside your existing procedure — start focused, prove value, scale deliberately.
  • One question for your next review: “If something happened at any site tonight, how long until we know?” — already holding the answer.
