Operational Continuity Through Asset Intelligence

Ensure your critical infrastructure is safe, compliant, and cost-effective. Move away from spreadsheets and into a unified engineering directory that satisfies both ISO 55001 and South African statutory requirements.

Centralised Engineering Registers

Maintain an accurate, real-time inventory of all critical infrastructure, plant machinery, and safety equipment across multiple facilities in one database.

Statutory Inspections

Never miss a legal deadline. Automate preventative maintenance reminders for high-risk assets like lifting tackle, pressure vessels, and fire equipment — as required by the Driven Machinery Regulations and Pressure Equipment Regulations.

Lifecycle Dashboards & CAPEX

Track maintenance costs against asset depreciation. Generate the data-driven intelligence required by the CFO to make calculated capital replacement decisions.

Mobile Maintenance Logging

Technicians can scan physical QR codes adhering to assets to instantly pull up history, view schematics, and log new preventative maintenance records offline.

Built for South Africa's Asset-Intensive Industries

ISO 55001 is increasingly required by South African mining houses, utilities, and manufacturing groups to demonstrate systematic asset lifecycle management and statutory compliance.

Mining & Extraction

Winder inspections, conveyor belt registers, underground equipment tracking, and MHSA-aligned statutory inspection scheduling.

Manufacturing & Engineering

Pressure vessel registers, lifting tackle inspections, GMR2 engineering appointments, and preventative maintenance cycle management.

Utilities & Infrastructure

Electrical installation compliance, transformer maintenance scheduling, fire equipment registers, and CAPEX lifecycle planning.

Facing a DoL inspection for pressure vessels or lifting tackle?

Our engineering compliance specialists have helped South African mining and manufacturing operations achieve ISO 55001 certification while satisfying all Driven Machinery and Pressure Equipment Regulation requirements.

ISO 55001 and South African Statutory Inspections: The Cost of Non-Compliance

Under the South African Occupational Health and Safety Act, the Driven Machinery Regulations (DMR) and Pressure Equipment Regulations (PER) impose mandatory inspection intervals on specific categories of plant and equipment. A pressure vessel operated beyond its inspection validity period, or a lifting tackle item used without a current colour-coded inspection certificate, exposes the employer to immediate prohibition notices, fines, and — in the event of an incident — criminal prosecution of the Section 16(2) appointee.

The challenge for South African engineering and manufacturing operations is scale. A medium-sized manufacturing facility may have hundreds of assets subject to statutory inspection — pressure vessels, lifting tackle, electrical installations, fire equipment, and machinery subject to GMR2 engineering appointments. Managing these inspection cycles via spreadsheet or paper-based registers is not just inefficient; it is a compliance liability that grows with every asset added to the register.

ISO 55001:2014 provides the management system framework that transforms this reactive compliance burden into a proactive asset lifecycle strategy. Clause 6.2.2 requires organisations to establish asset management objectives and plans — which means knowing not just when the next inspection is due, but what the total cost of ownership of each asset is, and when replacement becomes more cost-effective than continued maintenance.

SHEQ24 delivers both dimensions simultaneously. The statutory inspection scheduler ensures no DoL deadline is missed. The lifecycle dashboard gives the CFO the data needed to make rational CAPEX decisions. For South African mining operations, utilities, and manufacturing groups managing assets across multiple sites, SHEQ24 provides the single source of truth that ISO 55001 requires.
