Brady announced that its Client Services group launched two new services:  Lockout Equipment Inventory Service and Annual Lockout Procedure Audits. “Our team is constantly working to meet and exceed the needs of our clients, and we are expanding our services with their lockout goals in mind,” says Tim Bandt, global director of Client Services for Brady. “Our new services offer additional guidance to assist our customers on their journey to reaching lockout tagout success and program sustainability.”

The Lockout Equipment Inventory Service helps clients save both time and money by creating a detailed list of their equipment and machinery that requires lockout. Having an accurate and up-to-date lockout equipment list is an important step to creating effective lockout procedures. To complete this service, Brady comes onsite to collect data and create the equipment list with all relevant information. This spreadsheet can be easily imported into Brady’s LINK360® software to help create visual lockout procedures.

Lockout procedure audits are required to be conducted annually under OSHA’s periodic inspection requirements, and best practice is to have a third party perform the audit who does not perform the lockout process routinely. To help align with this standard, Brady’s Annual Lockout Procedure Audits bring Brady onsite to verify that machinery and isolation points on the procedure are correct, document any deficiencies in the process and provide your company with documented proof of audit. All results will be provided in a report and incorporated into your LINK360 software program, if applicable.

These two new services are an addition to Brady’s comprehensive line of lockout services, software and products, including Visual Lockout Procedure Writing, Lockout Tagout Safety Training, LINK360 software, and lockout devices, tags and printing systems.
