Case Study: Logan City Council streamlines machinery compliance with Plant Assessor

How we've helped Logan City Council streamline machinery compliance on one platform and increased consistency

Logan City Council, a local government authority managing a large fleet of over 1,100 machinery assets, faced significant challenges with its manual, paper-based processes. The council struggled with inconsistent risk assessments, inefficient sharing of safety documents, and difficulty in proving compliance, which consumed considerable staff time and created safety risks. To address this, they turned to the vendor Plant Assessor (now Ideagen Machine Safety) for a solution.

The solution from Plant Assessor provided a centralized, digital platform for managing machinery compliance. It offered standardized risk assessments from a vast database and digital pre-start checks, which drastically improved consistency and transparency. This implementation saved Logan City Council four hours per week on pre-start completion alone, streamlined document management, and provided a robust system to easily demonstrate compliance and protect both operators and the organization.
