A monitoring session is currently live for this project.
Projects
Loading projects…
Projects are the shared company projects library — the same records the Low Voltage,
Med Gas Design and Med Gas Piping tools use. Backfeed maps stay stored with the backfeed tool,
so all existing share links and QR codes keep working. Use "👁 Share" to make a map visible to hospital customers.
Attach maps to company projects
These backfeed maps aren't linked to a company project yet. Attaching one only writes a link —
the map itself doesn't move and its share links keep working. A suggestion is offered only when
the name is a confident match; otherwise pick or create one yourself.
Technician Roster
📋 The technician roster is managed in the
EMGS Portal → Settings.
Changes made there are automatically reflected here.
Loading roster…
Roster is shared org-wide across all projects. Techs with no zone assigned appear as coordinator / support tags at the bottom of the printed map.

Map Information
Excluded from OT & activity reports (e.g. the weekend OT/backfeed survey) — use for training, demos, or trying out the tool.
Closing out locks the map as a historical record — no further edits, photos,
documents or monitoring sessions. QR codes and share links keep working read-only.
Only a site admin can reopen it.
Optional — links this map to the shared company projects library used by other EMGS tools.
All backfeed data stays right here either way.

Shutdown Plan — MOP / Permit to Work
Builds a printable Method of Procedure for the shutdown:
which valves are isolated for the work, which zones are impacted, how alternative supply is provided,
the step-by-step procedure, notifications, and sign-offs. The generated document is structured to satisfy
the facility's NFPA 99 permit-to-work system documentation (§5.1.14.2).
Sections open only when they have content — click any header to open or close it.
▼
Work Information
Permit number, work date and window, contractor, and the site supervisor running the shutdown.
▼
Description of Work & Scope Photos
What is being done and why the shutdown is needed — plus numbered photos of the work (valves to be demoed, tie-in points, existing conditions) that you can reference right in the description.
Scope Photos — printed in MOP §1
Each photo is numbered automatically. Caption it (e.g. “ZV-3 · OR Suite oxygen zone valve — to be demoed”)
and use ↩ Ref to drop “(Photo 1)” into the description at your cursor.
Reorder with ↑ ↓ — the numbers follow.
▼
A · Work-Area Isolation Valves
Valve(s) that must be closed / locked out so the work can be performed. Attach a photo of each valve so the crew can find it.
▼
B · Alternative-Supply (Backfeed) Isolation Valves
Valve(s) operated to separate the impacted zones from the section being worked on, so cylinders can backfeed them during the shutdown.
▼
Impacted Areas
Zones being backfed are pulled automatically from the Zone Valve Entries above. Add any other affected areas (no outlets / signage-only / vacuum riders…) below.
▼
Shutdown & Restoration Procedure
Numbered steps printed in the MOP. Edit freely — the recommended sequence covers notify → backfeed → isolate → work → test → restore.
▼
Contacts & Notifications
Who must be informed before / during the shutdown — facility contacts, nursing units, respiratory, plant ops.
▼
Additional Qualified Personnel
Techs assigned to zones and Additional Project Personnel are listed in the MOP automatically — add anyone else (with credential, e.g. ASSE 6010 / 6030).
Credential / License Documents
— printed in MOP §5; imported trade submissions land here and on the people above

Outside Trade Input — Share Links
Send a trade (med gas installer, GC, plumber…) a secure link to submit their technicians,
license copies (ASSE 6010 etc.), and documents for this project only — mobile friendly,
no account needed, and they see nothing else on the site. Review and import their submission below.
No share links yet.

Job-Specific Safety & Testing Notes
Optional — standard safety language and the NFPA 99 §5.1.12.2 / §5.1.12.4 testing language are always included.
▼
Approvals / Sign-Off Blocks
Signature lines printed at the end of the MOP. Names can be left blank for hand-writing.

⚠️ Session Map Mismatch
This project has an active monitoring session that was started with a
different map configuration. If you join the old session, the
monitoring view will show stale zone and cylinder data that no longer matches your current map.
Searches the verification inventory on portal.emgsi.com for facilities with zone valves on file.
Zones import with their valve labels, areas served and rooms — no re-typing from the cert report.
