Ideagen Machine Safety

Ideagen Machine Safety (formerly Ideagen Plant Assessor) is machinery compliance software that helps organisations assess, manage and prove the safety of their machines. At its core is the Machinery Compliance Engine (MCE), which has risk profiled more than 120,000 makes and models of equipment. Users select a machine and answer a short set of inspection questions. The MCE then identifies hazards, applies risk ratings and recommends controls against referenced legislation. The result is an assessment specific to each machine, not a generic checklist.
