Inspection Finding Management Software for Oil and Gas Assets
Kissflow turns every inspection finding, on a tank shell, a pipeline dig site, a wellhead, or a piece of rotating equipment, into an owned, tracked corrective action with photo evidence and a closure date, so a finding written up in the field doesn't stay open because nobody assigned it.
Trusted by energy operators worldwide
The inspector leaves. The finding stays.
An inspector walks a tank, a pipeline right-of-way, or a compressor skid, writes up what's wrong, and moves on to the next asset on the schedule. The finding, corroded support, a bulge in a tank shell, a missing bolt on a flange, doesn't fix itself once it's written down. Somebody has to own it: assign it to a discipline, set a due date based on severity, and prove it closed before the next inspection cycle comes around. A findings list in a spreadsheet can hold the description. It can't tell a compliance manager who owns item 47, whether the photo evidence for the repair actually got attached, or how many findings across three inspection types are still open past their due date.
Kissflow runs inspection findings as a closed-loop workflow across every inspection type your teams already run: reusable inspection templates by asset class, scheduling and assignment so the right inspector is on the right asset, a findings-to-CAPA workflow that routes each item to an owner with a severity-based due date, photo and evidence capture at write-up and at closure, and a compliance dashboard that shows every open finding by asset, discipline, and age.
A tank inspection, a pipeline dig verification, and a rotating equipment check all feed the same findings register, so a compliance manager sees one list of what's open across the fleet instead of three inspection programs each keeping their own tally.
Where inspection findings go missing between write-up and closure
A finding has no owner
An item gets written up in the field and sits unassigned until someone remembers to follow up.
Severity doesn't drive the due date
A structural finding and a housekeeping note get the same follow-up timeline because nothing sets urgency automatically.
Closure evidence is a phone photo in a text thread
The picture proving a repair happened never makes it back to the finding record.
Nobody can see what's open across inspection types
Tank findings, pipeline findings, and equipment findings live in three different trackers, so no one has one list.
Six modules. Every finding assigned, evidenced, and closed against a compliance dashboard.
Configure inspection templates, severity rules, and due-date logic to your asset classes.
Reusable inspection templates
Build a template once per asset class, tank, pipeline segment, or rotating equipment, and reuse it every cycle.
Scheduling and assignment
Inspections route to the right inspector based on asset, discipline, and due cycle.
Finding write-up with photo evidence
An inspector logs a finding with severity, location, and a photo directly from the field.
Findings-to-CAPA workflow
Each finding routes to an owner with a severity-based due date and an escalation path if it slips.
Closure evidence capture
A repair or corrective action requires photo or documentation evidence before the finding can close.
Compliance dashboard
Every open finding rolls up by asset, discipline, and age, across every inspection type.
From request to system of record in four steps
Report
An inspector records what is wrong on a tank shell, pipeline dig site, wellhead, or piece of rotating equipment, with its severity and a photo, during or right after the inspection.
Assess
The finding routes to the responsible discipline with a severity-based due date.
Resolve
Open findings escalate automatically as they approach or pass their due date, driving each corrective action toward closure.
Record
A repair or corrective action needs photo or documentation proof before the finding closes, and the closure dashboard retains the record.
What changes when inspection findings run on Kissflow
| Process | Before Kissflow | On Kissflow |
|---|---|---|
| Finding write-up | A note in an inspector's notebook or a photo in a phone | Logged with severity, location, and evidence at the point of inspection |
| Ownership | Assumed, or chased down after the fact | Routed automatically to the responsible discipline |
| Due dates | The same follow-up window regardless of severity | Set by severity, with escalation as a finding ages |
| Closure evidence | A photo texted to a supervisor, never filed | Attached directly to the finding record before closure |
| Visibility across inspection types | Three separate trackers for tanks, pipelines, and equipment | One compliance dashboard across every asset class |
| Audit readiness | A scramble to reconstruct finding history before a regulator visit | A standing, exportable record of every finding and its closure |
Connects to your maintenance management system or ERP for work order creation; Kissflow doesn't replace your system of record
Kissflow runs the finding, assignment, and closure-evidence layer. Your EAM or ERP system stays the system of record for the resulting work order and cost.

Built for how findings actually get closed, not just written up
One template library, every asset class
Tank, pipeline, and equipment inspections all use the same reusable template engine.
Severity drives urgency automatically
A structural finding escalates faster than a housekeeping note, without anyone setting a manual reminder.
Evidence required to close
A finding can't close without a photo or document proving the fix.
Live in weeks
Configure templates and severity rules in the visual builder, or describe the use case to the AI Builder.
Governed from day one
Role-based access and a full audit trail on every finding, assignment, and closure.
One list, not three
A compliance manager sees every open finding across every inspection type in one dashboard.

Get SupportNo. Your EAM or ERP system stays the system of record for the work order and cost of any repair. Kissflow runs the finding, assignment, and closure-evidence layer that feeds it.
Pipeline Integrity Inspection Management System is the technical register of inline inspection run results and metal-loss data for pipelines specifically. This app is the general findings-to-CAPA layer that any inspection type, tank, pipeline, equipment, or facility, can feed into once a finding is written up.
Tank Inspection Management System runs the scheduled API 653-style inspection program itself. This app is where a finding from that inspection, or any other inspection type, gets assigned, tracked, and closed with evidence.
Yes. Configure severity tiers so a structural or safety-critical finding gets a shorter due date and faster escalation than a minor housekeeping item.
Yes, if you configure it that way. A finding can be set to require photo or document evidence before it's marked closed.
Yes. The compliance dashboard rolls up every open finding by asset class, discipline, and age, regardless of which inspection program it came from.
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 finding and closure.
