The purchasing manager's right hand: With this digital solution for handling lifting equipment, the purchasing manager creates great value for the company.
The solutions from Onix are primarily designed to ensure that owners of lifting equipment comply with machinery regulations and other safety requirements. This is done through solutions for seamless management of documentation between suppliers, users, owners, and inspectors.
The safety of individuals is the main focus. Safe lifting equipment is crucial for the safety of employees in situations that involve risk. Everyone should come home safely from work. Everything we do begins and ends with this commitment.
But our solutions are also more than safety. The Onix solutions are, for example, a Pandora's box for purchasing managers. Safety is of course important for the purchasing manager. However, when it comes to choosing and purchasing lifting equipment, the purchasing manager has several other goals he or she wants to fulfill:
- Ensuring that safe equipment is used
- Choosing equipment of the right quality
- Estimating the correct quantity
- Ensuring that the equipment is supplied with important certificates
- Negotiating the right price
- Having the right equipment at the right place at the right time
- Maximizing lifespan
- Avoiding operational interruptions
- Having robust IT security
- Contributing to accurate financial figures and simplifying the work of the audit
How can sophisticated and user-friendly software contribute to all these goals? With solutions from Onix, you get the following functionality:
- Your supplier uploads necessary documentation directly into the platform
- Your inspector's document inspection in the same solution
- The user always has access to the correct documentation
- The owner has a complete overview of the stock of lifting equipment
- The owner knows where the equipment is located
- The owner is familiar with the condition of the equipment
- The owner is notified before the equipment should be checked or renewed
This functionality primarily provides the foundation for effective safety in terms of the company's lifting equipment. And these are solutions that reduce frustration and create job satisfaction for users both with and without helmets.
There is much good Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) in smart IT solutions. With a solution like Onix, everyone in the company has access to information on how to use the lifting equipment, and the company can also use the solution for training.
Looking beyond: More than safety
At Onix, we were early to look beyond and see what other goals than safety the company has. For example, when the company has complete control over the lifecycle of lifting equipment, then the purchasing manager can plan better and achieve better prices. Comparing prices from different suppliers can also provide insight that leads to better prices.
With solutions where the supplier and inspector can upload documentation, the company saves time and money. Having all essential documentation in one place means that employees save time looking for papers and possibly contacting the supplier to get copies.
When the company receives automatic notifications ahead of important checks, the lifespan of the equipment can be extended and maintenance costs reduced. And when the documentation is always available and the equipment approved, you prevent costly operational interruptions.
Complete overview of the lifting equipment means that inventory and purchasing can be optimized. Not too much, not too little - and new purchases at the right time. A documented overview of the equipment also makes accounting more accurate and the auditor's control easier.
