AAK Safety applies climbing principles to equipment compliance
Learn how the Nordic leader in fall protection uses Onix to generate and deliver digital product and inspection documents.
ABC Fallsikring is an expert within safe work at heights. The company supplies, inspects and trains customers on how to use all kinds of fall arrest equipment. Its customers come from a wide range of industries including energy, offshore and construction. They require expert advice and support to ensure compliance and safety.
The ABC Fallsikring team had been using a combination of Microsoft Excel and Homebase for fall arrest equipment inspections. These tools were manual, required significant data entry, were time consuming and added an extra burden for a busy team. One system was needed to simplify inspections so that the team could focus on what they do best – providing quality products, services and support.
ABC Fallsikring chose to implement Onix Inspect as the solution for its inspection needs. Members of the team had already used Onix products in previous companies and saw the potential Onix Inspect had to simplify their work.
The team implemented Onix Inspect for all equipment inspections. The software allows inspectors to complete inspections onsite with their laptops or mobile devices. They use customizable digital checklists to inspect all types of fall arrest equipment.
Inspectors simply fill out set steps for each type of equipment, add notes and pictures, then complete inspections. Digital inspection documents are automatically created and sent to customers in their Onix accounts or with a link to Onix Express.
ABC Fallsikring's team are rope, rescue and fall arrest experts. They provide the training, tools and advice needed to work safely at heights.
Onix Inspect has helped ABC Fallsikring to simplify its inspections. The team now use one tool to complete all inspections. This has saved time both on inspections and admin work.
With digital tools, the team can also provide an even higher level of service to customers. Customers gain all the documentation they need digitally and get advice from ABC Fallsikring on when to plan their next inspections.
Finn Magne Triger, Service Technician, reflected on the change:
“With Onix Inspect, everything is in one place. It is easier, saves time and gives us a better overview so we can help customers plan their inspections and ensure compliance.”
The team sees that safety and compliance are becoming focus areas across more industries. Some have already implemented their own standards for safe work at heights, while others lag in prioritising training, inspections and planning.
