Anomaly Management Software for Pipeline and Asset Integrity
Kissflow captures every anomaly an inspection finds, runs it through a fitness-for-service assessment, and escalates the ones that can't wait, so four hundred findings on one inspection run become a prioritized list instead of an undifferentiated spreadsheet.
Trusted by energy operators worldwide
An inline inspection run finds four hundred anomalies on one pipeline segment. Most can wait until next cycle. A few can't, and telling them apart is the job.
A smart pig run, a visual inspection, or a corrosion survey doesn't come back with one problem to fix. It comes back with a list: dents, metal loss features, weld anomalies, each with a size, a location, and a severity that has to be assessed against a fitness-for-service standard before anyone decides what to do about it. A spreadsheet can hold four hundred rows. It can't tell an integrity engineer which fifteen of them need a dig-and-verify inspection this quarter and which three hundred and eighty-five are fine until the next inspection interval.
Kissflow runs anomaly management as an exception workflow: a capture step that pulls findings from inspection data, a fitness-for-service assessment that scores each anomaly's severity and priority, threshold-based alerting for anything that crosses an action limit, escalation to the integrity engineer or asset owner responsible for that segment, and corrective action tracking through remediation and re-inspection.
An integrity engineer working the backlog sees every open anomaly ranked by severity across the whole pipeline or facility, instead of four hundred rows in the order the inspection vendor delivered them.
Where anomaly management breaks down after an inspection run
Findings arrive as an undifferentiated list
An inspection report lists every anomaly with no prioritization for what needs attention first.
Fitness-for-service assessment is inconsistent
Whether an anomaly needs immediate action depends on which engineer happens to review it and how busy they are.
Nothing escalates automatically
An anomaly that crosses an action threshold sits in the report until someone reads that far down the list.
Remediation and re-inspection aren't tracked to closure
A repair gets scheduled but nobody confirms the anomaly was actually cleared on the next inspection.
Six modules. Every anomaly captured, assessed, escalated, and closed with re-inspection evidence.
Configure severity criteria, action thresholds, and escalation paths to your integrity program.
Anomaly capture from inspection data
Findings from an inline inspection, visual survey, or corrosion assessment are logged with location, size, and type.
Fitness-for-service assessment
Each anomaly is scored against your fitness-for-service criteria to determine severity and priority.
Threshold-based alerting
An anomaly that crosses an action threshold triggers an alert automatically.
Remediation scheduling and escalation
A flagged anomaly routes to the responsible integrity engineer or asset owner, escalating if it isn't actioned.
Corrective action tracking
Repair or mitigation work is tracked from scheduling through completion.
Trend and compliance reporting
A ranked, live view of every open anomaly across the pipeline or facility, with closure evidence for the record.
From request to system of record in four steps
Report
Inspection findings are captured as anomalies with location, size, and type, so nothing an inspection run turns up goes unrecorded.
Assess
Each anomaly is scored for severity and priority through a fitness-for-service assessment against your criteria.
Resolve
Flagged anomalies route to the responsible engineer and escalate if unactioned, and repair work is tracked to completion.
Record
The repair is confirmed with re-inspection evidence and the anomaly closes, turning four hundred findings into a prioritized, retained record.
What changes when anomaly management runs on Kissflow
| Process | Before Kissflow | On Kissflow |
|---|---|---|
| Findings intake | An inspection report with four hundred undifferentiated rows | Captured and logged with location, size, and type |
| Severity assessment | Inconsistent, dependent on which engineer reviews it | Scored against a consistent fitness-for-service standard |
| Action threshold | Noticed if someone reads far enough down the report | Triggers an automatic alert |
| Escalation | An email that may or may not get read in time | Routed to the responsible engineer, with escalation if unactioned |
| Remediation tracking | A repair gets scheduled and then loses visibility | Tracked from scheduling through completion |
| Closure evidence | Assumed complete once the work order closes | Confirmed with re-inspection evidence on record |
Connects to your inspection data provider and ERP; Kissflow doesn't replace your engineering system of record
Kissflow runs the assessment, escalation, and corrective action layer. Your inspection vendor's data platform and your ERP stay the systems of record for raw inspection data and work orders.

Built for how an inspection backlog actually gets worked
Consistent fitness-for-service scoring
Every anomaly is assessed against the same criteria, not whichever engineer's judgment happened to review it.
Thresholds that alert instead of waiting to be read
An action-limit anomaly triggers a notification instead of sitting in row three hundred of a report.
Escalation that doesn't stall
An unactioned high-severity anomaly moves up the chain automatically.
Live in weeks

Governed from day one
Role-based access and a full audit trail on every anomaly and closure.
One ranked view across the whole asset
An integrity engineer sees every open anomaly by severity, not by inspection report order.

Get SupportNo. Your inspection vendor's platform stays the system of record for raw inspection data, and your ERP stays the system of record for work orders. Kissflow runs the assessment, escalation, and corrective action layer that connects them.
Cathodic Protection Monitoring System tracks one narrow, regulatory-driven reading: whether corrosion protection is holding at a test point. This app is the broader register for structural and mechanical integrity anomalies found by inspection, from a dent to a metal-loss feature.
That app is scoped specifically to inline-inspection anomalies on a pipeline crossing a defined wall-thickness threshold, through dig verification and repair. This app is the broader fitness-for-service register across inspection types and asset classes, not limited to pipeline ILI data.
You configure the fitness-for-service criteria your program uses; the app applies it consistently to every anomaly captured.
Whoever you configure, typically the integrity engineer or asset owner responsible for that segment, with escalation if the alert isn't actioned.
Yes. Corrective action tracking stays open until re-inspection evidence confirming closure is attached to the record.
Configuration and AI-assisted app generation move delivery from a multi-month program to a matter of weeks.
Kissflow is certified to SOC 1, SOC 2, SOC 3, and ISO/IEC 27001, with role-based access and a full audit log on every anomaly and closure.
