Identify bad actors and critical flanges

Page last modified
November 27 2025

Flange connections are still one of the biggest sources of leaks in the industry. IMS FCM is a web-based flange management software tool for managing those (critical) flanges. This small but powerful IMS module will warrant a structured approach to the assembly and dismantling of (critical) flanges. It provides a maintenance protocol based on tension or torque calculations and a checklist for the execution of the work. After completion, the work history is archived and can be shared with the integrity department.

Pros & Limitations
1
Identifies bad actors based on proper history recording
1
Bad actors will then be marked as critical flanges and additional care is taken when working on these flanges
1
Follow a guided color-coded protocol, to help determine how much torque you need to apply, and use the outcome on the job.
1
Ensure integrity and compliance through running pass/fail calculations on your flanges. Smart system that suggests standardized default values.
1
Print labels to attach directly on your flanges for quick access to information on what equipment is attached to which flange.
1
Print QR Codes to the relevant equipment information, so that it can always be easily accessed when needed.
