This webinar introduces the new features of SIL Solver Enterprise+ V2.7!

SSE+ V2.7 supports the different roles and responsibilities of personnel supporting the safety lifecycle, allowing you to control who can view or edit system data and who can add to or modify corporate-wide metadata.

SSE+ V2.7 covers the documentation requirements of IEC 61511 for safety instrumented systems and the impending requirements of ISA 84.91.03 for instrumented protection layers, such as safety interlocks, BPCS, IPL, Fire and Gas, ESD, and equipment protection.

Key capabilities of SSE+ V2.7 include scope and hazard registries, document registry, Functional Safety Assessment (FSA), audits, process requirements specification, SIL verification, Safety Requirements Specification, Application Program Specification, and I/O lists.

Plan Ahead — Designing for IPS Success and Failure

Overview

An instrumented protective system (IPS) is more than a checklist of LOPA interlocks and alarms. The real challenge? Knowing where designs break before they ever go live.

Which instrument technologies can quietly undermine high-speed protection layers? What operations and maintenance realities must be baked into the IPS during conceptual design—before they turn into expensive rework? And how do early design decisions determine whether an IPS performs reliably under real operating conditions?

Addressing these questions up front is the difference between a resilient IPS and one that struggles from day one.

With nearly 35 years of industry experience, Eloise Roche shares practical, field-tested insights to help you design IPS solutions that are robust, maintainable, and far more likely to succeed when it matters most.

Plan smarter. Design stronger.

Cold Eyes — Why Independent Assessments Make or Break Functional Safety

with Eloise Roche

Next session: November 10th, 2026

Overview

Automation projects are complex, fast-moving, and deeply human—and that means mistakes happen. Some are harmless. Others quietly erode or even defeat your protection layers, at startup or years later.

That’s where cold eyes matter.

Functional Safety Assessments (FSAs) bring in independent, experienced reviewers to spot the dangerous oversights others miss—verifying that instrumented protection layers and their documentation truly do what they claim. Ongoing assessments then confirm those layers continue to perform as designed throughout the lifecycle.

Drawing on nearly 35 years in industry and more than a decade leading FSAs, Eloise Roche shares practical, hard-won insights on how to plan, scope, and execute assessments that are efficient, effective, and defensible—without unnecessary pain.

Fresh eyes. Proven experience. Stronger safety outcomes.

The Big Picture — Functional Safety Planning

with Eloise Roche

Next session: December 15th, 2026

Overview

Functional safety planning is more than a compliance exercise—it is the blueprint for protecting people, assets, and operations throughout the lifecycle of an instrumented protective system (IPS). A well-crafted functional safety plan lays the groundwork for effective risk management, clear accountability, and successful execution of IPS projects.

In this session, Eloise Roche distills 35 years of process industry experience into the three key safety planning activities that can help any facility more reliably transform high-level functional safety objectives into measurable outcomes.

Belt and Suspenders — IPS Verification and Validation

with Eloise Roche

Next session: October 19th, 2026

Free More Info

Overview

Verification and validation often get lumped together—but in functional safety, confusing them can leave dangerous gaps in your protection layers.

They are not interchangeable. Each serves a distinct purpose, and each addresses different ways human error can quietly turn an instrumented protection layer into something ineffective—or worse, inoperable. Skip one, misunderstand the other, and the integrity of the IPS is at risk.

In this session, Eloise Roche draws on nearly 35 years of industry experience to clearly separate verification from validation, explain why both matter, and show how these complementary activities work together to deliver a truly robust IPS implementation.

Two checks. One goal. Real protection when it counts.
