Engagements
Three ways in.
Three ways to use forty-five years of shuttle and AGV safety. Scope is agreed before anything starts, and every engagement ends with something you can put in the file.
Scope and price
Pick the one that matches your exposure.
Fees are agreed per engagement, in writing, before anything starts. Where a machine turns out to be more than it looked, you hear it before the invoice, not after.
Safety concept review
For a system on the drawing board, or one whose safety concept has never been read by an outsider.
Per system
Typically two to four weeks
- Risk assessment reviewed to EN ISO 12100
- Safety functions and required performance level challenged
- Layout and safety envelope checked to EN ISO 3691‑4
- Written findings, ranked by exposure
Recommended
Standards representation
For a manufacturer whose systems are shaped by standards it has no seat at the table for. Most of this industry is in that position.
Retained
Per committee cycle
- Your position carried into the ISO and CEN standards process
- Draft standards read and their impact explained
- Early warning on changes before they are published
- Attendance and reporting on national mirror committees
Advisory support
For an engineering team that needs a second opinion, or wants the experience transferred before it is gone.
By the day
As needed, no minimum
- Second opinion on a contested safety decision
- Technical file and declaration reviewed clause by clause
- Design reviews with your engineering team
- Knowledge transfer to your younger engineers

How an engagement runs
Four steps, in this order.
Each step produces something written. Nothing moves to the next one until the last is settled on your side.
Step 01
The drawing
You send the layout and the machine list. You get scope and a fixed fee back inside three working days.
Step 02
The read
I read what already exists — risk assessment, safety functions, field sets, layout — and the questions come back to you in writing.
Step 03
The findings
Written findings, ranked by exposure, each one hung on the clause it actually comes from rather than on an opinion.
Step 04
The follow-through
I stay reachable while your team closes the findings out, and I read the file once more before anyone signs the declaration.
A machine without a file is not on the market. It is exposed.
Send the layout drawing and I will tell you what the machine is, which standards apply, and where the risk actually sits.
