FSM Certification
Unlock the Value of Functional Safety Management Certification
In today's ever-evolving landscape of functional safety standards, demonstrating the adequacy of your Functional Safety Management (FSM) system to end-users is crucial. At Risknowlogy, we offer the best support and a streamlined certification process that is refreshingly easy and low on bureaucracy.
With our expertise, we certify FSM systems according to IEC 61508, IEC 61511, ISO 26262 and other related functional safety standards. Let us guide you through the journey of achieving FSM certification effortlessly.
Core concept #1 - Lifecycle
Every functional safety project needs a well-defined lifecycle. An FSM system ensures that the right people carry out the right tasks at the right time, even before the SIL project commences. This sets the foundation for a successful outcome.
Core concept #2 - Competency
Harnessing the expertise of competent professionals is vital. An FSM system ensures that you assemble a highly skilled team with the knowledge and experience to deliver exceptional results.
Core concept #3 - Verification, Validation, Assessment and Audits
Even the most skilled professionals can make errors. That's why FSM incorporates comprehensive verification, validation, assessment, and audit processes. An FSM system minimises the chances of mistakes, ensuring the highest quality and reliability.
Core concept #4 - Documentation
Core concept #5 - Procedures
all stakeholders benefit from FSM

Embrace the power of FSM with Risknowlogy and unlock new possibilities for SIL projects.
for End users
End users rely on a robust FSM system to conduct assessments and audits. They must evaluate EPCs, engineering companies, system integrators, and product suppliers. Furthermore, they must assess and audit the operational phase of the safety lifecycle. FSM serves as a core principle for end users, ensuring that installed safety functions and systems maintain their SIL levels. We would like to strengthen your FSM practices and enhance safety assurance.
FOR EPC and engineering companies
EPCs and engineering companies collaborate closely with end users, playing a crucial role in the early stages of the safety lifecycle. The work they perform determines the selection and construction of the correct safety functions. FSM is essential in executing these stages effectively, enabling the delivery of safety functions and systems that truly align with end users' needs. Increasingly, end users require FSM systems from EPCs and engineering partners that adhere to functional safety standards. We'd like to encourage your organization to meet these demands with confidence.
FOR System integrators
System integrators, as suppliers to end users, require a robust FSM system. They are responsible for building and integrating safety functions and systems that will be installed in the field. Their focus primarily revolves around application programming and hardware/software integration. Accurate execution of these tasks is crucial to ensure the delivery of the right safety functions to end users. Our expertise can help you establish a comprehensive FSM system, minimising errors and maximising the effectiveness of your safety solutions.

Step by Step
STEP 1. GAP ANALYSIS - Bridging the Divide
At Risknowlogy, we understand that many companies already have established quality systems and procedures in place. Our first step is to conduct a thorough gap analysis, where we align your existing practices with the requirements of the functional safety standard. By minimizing the workload and leveraging your existing framework, we ensure a seamless transition towards certification. Together, we gain a clear understanding of your current standing and identify the areas that require attention and improvement.
STEP 2. DOCUMENT REVIEW - Building a Solid Foundation
You provide us with the necessary documentation that supports your FSM system, and our expert team meticulously reviews and verifies it against the FSM requirements. This collaborative process may involve iterations until all documentation is compliant, ensuring that your FSM system is robust and reliable. With Risknowlogy, you can trust that your FSM system is backed by solid documentation, instilling confidence in your stakeholders and enhancing your overall compliance.
STEP 3. CERTIFICATION - Recognizing Excellence
Once all documentation has been thoroughly verified and assessed, we issue a comprehensive certification report and FSM certificate. These invaluable documents serve as indisputable evidence to any party, whether it be government entities, insurance providers, clients, or management, that your FSM system fully complies with the functional safety standard. With Risknowlogy's stamp of approval, you can proudly demonstrate your commitment to excellence and gain a competitive edge in the industry.
STEP 4. periodic AUDITS - Ensuring Continual Improvement
Recognizing that an FSM system is dynamic and ever-evolving, we emphasize the importance of periodic audits. Through regular audits, we ensure that your FSM system remains effective and aligned with the evolving functional safety landscape. A successful audit culminates in the re-certification of your FSM system, affirming its continued relevance and compliance. With Risknowlogy, you can stay ahead of the curve and keep your FSM system and certification up to date, setting new benchmarks for operational excellence.

Certification in Two Phases
FSM System - Phase 1 Certification: Building a Solid Foundation
At Risknowlogy, we understand that functional safety management is crucial across industries. Our Phase 1 certification focuses on standard functional safety management procedures and documentation essential for compliance, regardless of your company's role - an end user, EPC, engineering company, system integrator, or product manufacturer. This foundational certification establishes a robust FSM system that forms the bedrock of your functional safety endeavours.
FSM system - Phase 2 Certification: Tailored for Excellence
Building upon the Phase 1 certification, Phase 2 certification delves deeper into your specific industry and operational requirements. We address the unique functional safety management procedures and documentation needed for the lifecycle phases relevant to your company. Whether you are an end user, EPC, engineering company, system integrator, or product manufacturer, our phase 2 certification ensures that your FSM system aligns precisely with the nature of your work and the applicable lifecycle phases. By tailoring our approach, we empower you to achieve optimal functional safety outcomes and elevate your industry standing.
