Improving Safety and Compliance Across the Engineering Industry
Engineers are problem solvers by definition. Whether it is transportation, infrastructure or medical devices – they are consistently looking at ways to improve everyday life. As a result, these businesses need to adopt a continuous improvement approach
Risk Assessment and Notification
Review all potential risks prior to any dangerous activity
Work in the engineering industry is considered ‘high risk’. Chemicals, machinery and heavy vehicles poses potential risks to workers and can potentially cause serious injury or death. Therefore, these businesses need to make a commitment to the ongoing safety of their workers through implementing a Risk Assessment process, where risks and hazards can be logged, Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS) can be generated and relevant parties can be notified automatically.
The SafeWrite platform includes a Risk Assessment register for workers to log risks and hazards automatically, this can then be automatically generated into a SWMS and notified to any managers or field workers.
Increasing ‘Red Tape’ for Government Contracts
Growing difficulty to win new jobs and grow
Many engineering businesses rely on tenders and government contracts for the majority of their projects. Similarly, government agencies rely on engineers to ensure that the roads, infrastructure etc being developed is of a high quality. Unfortunately, a recent poor history in the engineering and construction industry has forced these government agencies to adopt a more rigid requirement for the businesses to adopt.
Many tenders now require ISO 9001, ISO 45001 and ISO 14001 compliance to ensure these business adopt best practice methodology across safety, quality and environmental management.
The SafeWrite platform includes ready-made policies, procedures and templates all compliant with the latest ISO Standards, perfect for tender submissions.
Documentation Management and Storage
Lack of documentation management can harm scalability
Documentation has become increasingly important across the engineering industry as a whole, not only do key policies and procedures need to be maintained for compliance, but they also hold a blueprint for workers to understand their roles and key processes. Thereby significantly reducing the onboarding time for new workers.
The SafeWrite platform has a powerful Policies and Documentation Management tool for users to continuously manage their key processes. All version numbers are updated automatically and users can be notified of any policy approvals via email.

SafeWrite Review - IsoAnalytics
Overall: Excellent Pros: The ease-of-use and templates straight out of the box. The customer support from [sensitive content hidden] and the team are phenomenal. I don't think i've interacted with a company that provides online services at all where they have reached out to make sure everything is going well and to prompt whether we needed any assistance. It was refreshing! It's a super easy to use platform, we got going in minutes. Cons: Some of the word docs (like all word doccs) can have clunky table formatting but that's a document for you!

Overall: It has been good with great support so far Pros: It covers most of our business. Heavily focussed on WHS and Environment - need ability to switch to more general business titles/terminology Cons: Focus on manufacturing businesses. Some features do not flow well. Need more actions for ttaching evidence/documents for completed projects/tasks

Review following ISO 9001 Audit
Pros: For our business the HSEQ Dashboard and Policies Manager are the 2 main tools that we use, from a compliance perspective. Also the business planning tools, as our clients in Aged Care and NDIS require business plans for applications and ongoing accreditation. We also use the business planning tools for clients who are applying for grants and tenders. The knowledge bank in MAUS is second to none - although sometimes when time is short is easier to just pick up the phone and speak with the support team. Cons: The content is in my opinion a little one dimensional in terms of sector focus. For example the ISO manuals would benefit from having a service focused version.

We finally got rid of paper documents!
Pros: It is easy to use, the staff is friendly, there are plenty of training resources my team can use if they get stuck. The difference is night and day, considering we came from a world of messy excel sheets and stacks of paper documentation. We could not have achieved our ISO certification without it. Cons: The software isn't the fastest out there, sometimes it takes a few moments on rural sites. They mentioned that they are working to help with this, and I wouldn't trade the speed for the utility the system provides anyway.

Review of software
Overall: The software is easy to use and the webinar's are especially helpful. Small numbers give you lots of time to ask questions etc. and very personalised. Pros: Definitely easy to use this software as I am starting from scratch with some knowledge of the system but this is far better than having to rewrite our out of date system Cons: So far haven't found any negatives about using the system

Easy to use software and great value for money.
Overall: Simple data storage, but not an effective reporting tool. Pros: Ease of use and the price was right for a basic software package. Cons: May be a bit basic moving forward, we need more statistical information for reporting etc.

Top Result
Overall: It has helped us to our first ISO audit and this was successful as we are now ISO 9001 compliant Pros: The way it is set out and all the templates are a big help. Cons: There are certainly a fair few typo's and one or 2 gliches in the system.
