Cost saving system
January 1st 2007 By using a combination of the Safetrak computerised asset management system and the Unitag equipment status tagging system from Scafftag, Velosi has delivered a lifting gear inspection and certification solution (in accordance with the LOLER regulations) to a well known razor manufacturer. Velosi provides quality control and inspection services and is one of the few companies that is fully accredited by UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Service) for inspection and certification of lifting equipment and that is independent of an insurance company. Martin Coles, director at Velosi, says of the project at the client's premises: "We trialed every one of Scafftag's different tagging systems over a six month period and found that the combination of the Unitag and the Safetrak system suited our needs best." Safetrak is an electronic management tool that shares information on equipment status and controls the workflow between onsite employees and managers. It uses three components: Electronically (RFID) chipped Scafftag status tagging systems; Handheld computers; Specially designed software. Safetrak works by building an inspections schedule in the software program which is then downloaded onto the hand held computer units (PDAs) and given to the operative.
