Yes. There are process safety management (PSM) systems and EHS/PSM platforms that can help refinery HSE teams manage regulatory audit reporting, especially for compliance workflows, findings tracking, evidence management, and report generation.

What they typically do

These systems usually support:

  • Audit planning and scheduling
  • Checklist and inspection workflows
  • Finding / nonconformance tracking
  • Corrective and preventive action (CAPA) management
  • Document and evidence control
  • Regulatory compliance dashboards
  • Automated report generation for auditors and regulators
  • MOC, PHA/HAZOP, incident, and permit-to-work integration in more advanced systems

Common categories of solutions

1) Enterprise EHS / PSM platforms

Often used by refineries for broader compliance and safety management:

  • IBM Envizi / OpenPages for governance, risk, and controls
  • Enablon
  • Sphera
  • Intelex
  • Cority
  • VelocityEHS
  • Donesafe
  • EcoOnline

These can typically handle audit logs, corrective actions, document trails, and compliance reporting.

2) Specialized compliance/audit management tools

Better if the main need is audit reporting and evidence tracking:

  • AuditBoard
  • LogicGate
  • Qualio or similar quality/compliance systems
  • MasterControl in regulated environments

3) Process safety-focused tools

More targeted at refinery PSM processes:

  • Sphera PSM
  • DNV / Synergi Life
  • J5 / Hexagon-type operational risk and workflow tools
  • Airsweb for EHS and risk workflows

What to look for for refinery HSE regulatory audits

For refinery use, make sure the system supports:

  • OSHA PSM, EPA RMP, or local equivalent frameworks
  • Multi-site audit templates
  • Role-based approvals and audit trails
  • Photo/document evidence attachments
  • Exportable regulator-ready reports
  • Integration with CMMS / ERP for action closure
  • Retention policies and version control for compliance documents

Practical recommendation

If you need full refinery PSM + audit reporting, look first at:

  • Sphera
  • Enablon
  • Cority
  • Intelex
  • IBM OpenPages if you need stronger governance/risk controls

If you want, I can also give you:

  1. a shortlist by refinery use case,
  2. a comparison table, or
  3. a template for evaluating vendors against OSHA PSM / EPA RMP audit reporting needs.
