Compliance (WTSSR)
Implement renewables-specific processes and documentation to ensure compliance with industry standards such as the Wind Turbine System Safety Rules (WTSSR). The KUDO platform supports the application of procedures like limited working parties, helping you maintain safe, compliant, and controlled work environments.
What's the problem?
-
Staying compliant with renewables specifific industry standards such as WTSSR can be complex and time-consuming.
-
Manual systems often leave room for human error and inconsistent following of procedures.
-
Compliance processes often lack visibility, making it hard to prove you are following the procedures.
How we can help
-
Enforce site procedures with built in support for standards such as the Wind Turbine System Safety Rules (WTSSR).
-
Automatically apply and control documentation, such as limited working party procedures.
-
Standardise your compliance processes across all teams and sites.
Benefits
-
Maintain clear and consistent records of compliance, ensuring you are always audit ready.
-
Reduce risk on site by ensuring that critical procedures are always being followed.
-

Common Questions About Compliance:
What is the WTSSR Compliance feature in KUDO?
WTSSR Compliance is a built-in compliance management module within the KUDO platform that supports operators in meeting the requirements of the Wind Turbine System Safety Rules (WTSSR). It automates the application of WTSSR-specific documentation, such as limited working party procedures, and standardises compliance processes across all teams and sites.
What are the Wind Turbine System Safety Rules (WTSSR)?
The Wind Turbine System Safety Rules (WTSSR) are an industry-standard safety framework governing how personnel interact with wind turbine assets during operation and maintenance. They define requirements for access control, working procedures, documentation, and competency, with the aim of preventing accidents and ensuring safe working practices on and around wind turbines.
How does KUDO automate WTSSR compliance documentation?
KUDO can automatically apply WTSSR-required documentation to relevant work orders, including Approved Written Procedures (AWPs) and limited working party controls. This ensures the correct procedures are always attached to the right tasks, reducing the risk of human error and ensuring procedures are followed consistently across all sites and teams.
How does KUDO help operators prove WTSSR compliance during audits?
Because all compliance activity is recorded within KUDO — including which procedures were attached to work orders, who acknowledged them, and when — operators can generate a clear, timestamped audit trail at any time. This removes the uncertainty associated with paper-based or manual compliance systems.
Is KUDO's compliance functionality limited to wind energy, or does it work for other renewables?
No, the Compliance module is designed with wind energy operations in mind, but still applicable for other technologies. KUDO's broader compliance features — including access restrictions, induction management, and work order procedures — are also applicable across all renewable energy technologies, including solar, hydro, and battery storage.
