LMRA — last minute risk analysis

An LMRA — last minute risk analysis — is the very last look around the technieker takes on site, immediately before starting. Not at the office, not the day before: at the workplace itself, with the situation as it actually is.

It answers one question: is anything visible right now that prevents the work from being carried out safely?

What an LMRA is not

It replaces no inspection, no work permit and no written safety procedure, and it does not certify the installation. It records only the state of things at the moment of starting.

Step 1 — the planning decision

Every service order carries LMRA required with three possible values. The planner sets it before the intervention leaves.

Setting	Meaning
Required	An LMRA must be completed and confirmed before work starts.
Not required	No LMRA is needed for this job.
Decide on site	The technieker decides, with the situation in front of them.

Decide on site is the honest option for routine work at an unfamiliar site: you do not force a form where it adds nothing, but you leave the door open for the technieker who arrives and sees something wrong. Until they choose, the order sits at Decision pending on site.

Tip

Your administrator sets the default for new orders once, so every job starts from your organisation’s policy rather than an empty field.

Step 2 — the technieker on site

The technieker opens the LMRA in the app and works through the questions. Each answer is Yes, No or — where allowed — N/A.

A No automatically creates a hazard. That hazard gets a severity, and the technieker may raise it when reality is worse than the form assumed.

Severity	Consequence
Info	Recorded, work may start
Caution	Recorded, work may start
Danger	Work may not start while it is open
Stop Work	Work may not start while it is open

All LMRAs with their status, the intervention concerned and the technieker who completed it.

Step 3 — what stops the work

Service Suite refuses to move an intervention to In Progress when:

• an LMRA is required but not completed;
• it is completed but not confirmed;
• there is an open hazard of severity Danger or Stop Work;
• the planner chose Decide on site and the technieker has not decided yet.

The rule lives in the server

The check happens on save, not in the screen. There is no button, app or detour around it. What the technieker reported stands until it is resolved and checked again.

Step 4 — resolving a hazard

1. The technieker or the planner records the corrective action: what was done to remove the hazard.

2. The hazard is closed. Photos and remarks are kept.

3. The intervention status follows automatically. With nothing open, work can start.

If the hazard persists — missing scaffolding, an installation that cannot be made dead — the intervention is rescheduled rather than forced. That is the whole point of the mechanism.

The dashboard shows blocked interventions and open hazards at a glance.

Who does what

Role	Responsibility
Manager	Writes the LMRA templates: which questions, which severity on a No. Follows up hazards that repeat.
Planner / dispatcher	Sets Required, Not required or Decide on site per job, and sees which interventions are stuck.
Technieker	Completes the LMRA on site, reports what they see, and records the corrective action.
