Automotive industry: optimizing the DUERP and the PAPRIPACT in a multi-site context

3 key takeaways

  • Centralizing the DUERP (Single Occupational Risk Assessment Document) and the action plan within a single platform made it possible to harmonize practices across the six industrial sites and to improve the reliability of all data related to occupational risk prevention.
  • The solution provides document control that complies with regulatory and standards-based requirements, along with a consolidated, national view of risk, thanks to a unified DUERP, controlled access rights, and automated management of the PAPRIPACT (annual occupational risk prevention action program).
  • Digitalising HSE processes, coupled with the automatic generation of statistics and dashboards, considerably reduced manual tasks, improved operational efficiency, and simplified the preparation of management reviews.

Fragmented risk management

Like many companies in the multi-site industrial sector, this automotive group faced highly fragmented management of occupational risk prevention. Each site had its own DUERP, structured differently, updated at varying intervals, and maintained through Excel files that were difficult to keep current. The associated action plans followed the same logic, producing nearly thirty documents to collect, sort, and analyze before every management review.

This way of working led to considerable wasted time, inconsistencies between sites, and difficulty in obtaining a consistent national view of risks and priority actions. Even though all the information needed to build the PAPRIPACT was present, the company had no system that allowed it to connect that information, structure it, or extract reliable statistics from it. This lack of centralized document management was also at odds with the requirements of Clause 7.5 of the ISO standards on the control of documented information, a particularly sensitive issue in a sector subject to strong compliance and traceability requirements. was also at odds with the requirements of Clause 7.5 of the ISO standards on the control of documented information, a particularly sensitive issue in a sector subject to strong compliance and traceability requirements.

Pooling practices with BlueKanGo

To meet these challenges, the company deployed BlueKanGo's HSE solution as a centralized platform for managing the DUERP, the action plan, and the PAPRIPACT. All sites were brought together into a single national DUERP, making it possible to harmonize risk-assessment methods, ensure the consistency of information, and facilitate overall management of the process. Thanks to filters, each stakeholder can now quickly access the data that concerns them, by site, by department, by work unit, or by hazard type.

The action plan was unified on the same principle: a single database, automatically enriched from the risk assessments and administered according to specific access rights that allow each site to work within its own scope while contributing to the national strategy. Statistics, dashboards, and progress tracking are generated automatically, which makes the preparation of the PAPRIPACT smooth and immediate.

Benefits: harmonized practices as a guarantee of efficiency

This transformation brought major gains for the company. The HSE Director no longer depends on the tedious collection of roughly thirty disparate files: the information is centralized, continuously updated, and usable in a few clicks. National oversight of prevention gains in precision, responsiveness, and consistency, with an immediate read on the dominant risks, the status of actions, and resource needs.

Local teams, for their part, benefit from a clear structure and standardized tools, supporting the harmonization of practices and collective skill-building. Management reviews, once very time-consuming, can be prepared quickly thanks to consolidated, reliable, and visual data. Finally, the company strengthens its regulatory compliance while improving the transparency and efficiency of its prevention efforts.

By unifying the DUERP , the PAPRIPACT, BlueKanGo enabled the industrial group to move from a fragmented arrangement to structured prevention governance, fully suited to the requirements of its sector.
