Boiler and Pressure Vessel Safety Gap Analysis

A structured assessment of a boiler installation against published codes, producing a prioritised gap register and an action plan rather than a pass or a fail.

Four documents, five-sheet workbook, 90 verification points

What is included

  • Completion Guide How to run the assessment, and what to collect first
  • Gap Analysis Instrument 90 points across 13 domains, with dashboard and 24-hazard risk assessment
  • Gap Analysis Report Template The output, structured so findings get acted on
  • Provenance and Evidence Log Codes relied on and design decisions

What makes it usable

  • Thirteen domains covering design and registration, statutory inspection, relief devices, low-water protection, combustion and flame safeguard, fuel, water treatment, procedures, competence, maintenance, environment, emergency preparedness and management system.

  • Priority is derived from conformance and a pre-set criticality, not chosen, so an uncomfortable finding cannot be quietly downgraded.

  • Built to ASME BPVC Sections I, IV and VII, ASME CSD-1, NFPA 85, NBIC NB-23, and ABMA water chemistry guidance.

  • Includes an item most instruments omit: conflicting figures in an inspection report are a critical non-conformance in themselves, because it means nobody knows the correct value.

What it does not cover

Stated plainly, because a document that overstates itself is worse than no document.

  • Statutory inspection. It does not replace inspection by a commissioned inspector.
  • The pressure envelope. It does not assess fitness for service, remaining life, corrosion allowance or weld integrity.
  • Certifying a boiler as safe to operate.

Products cover the system. Tailoring it to your plant, your regulator and your existing documentation is an engagement, and often a short one.
