Risk Analysis & Accident Prevention Plan (PPA)

The Integral Materials and Risk Management Office (DGGIMAR) of the SEMARNAT is demanding that high-risk industries present risks studies in any of it modalities. Companies that handle hazardous raw materials and/or products should be prepared for it. To date, we have made several of these studies (eg: Cemex, Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma) including HAZOP, Fault-Tree Analysis, and “What-If” methodologies, and the advanced computerized simulation of negative events. In recent years, DGGIMAR/SEMARNAT is requiring the development and submitting of Accident Prevention Plan (PPA), according to the guidelines published in the Official Journal of the Federation (DOF). Now, it is not enough to file a Risk Analysis, but closely linked to such PPA.
