ObjectsManagement system

All your machinery, vehicles and installations, with their inspection and maintenance, in one register

The object register tracks your machinery, installations, buildings, vehicles, pipe networks and systems: where they are, who manages and uses them, what they are worth and when they are due for inspection or maintenance. Each object has its own file with its inspections and maintenance, and with the incidents, inspections, actions, changes and documents linked to it.

Features

What you do with Objects

One register for everything

Record machinery, installations, buildings, vehicles, pipework, software and other objects. View the register as a table or as cards and filter by type, status, and inspection or maintenance.

Criticality sets priority

For each object you choose high (failure stops work or affects safety), medium or low. Criticality drives the priority of maintenance, inspection and replacement.

Inspection and maintenance per object

Record per object what comes back: for a vehicle the APK inspection, servicing and insurance, for a building the extinguishers and emergency lighting. You choose the interval and the responsible role and report an execution with outcome, cost and report; the next date moves on by itself. The status (in order, due soon or overdue) always follows from the data and cannot be set to OK by hand.

Reminders for the person responsible

Before an inspection or maintenance runs out, the responsible role gets a message. If an inspection is rejected, the system plans the re-inspection and creates an action for it.

Driver or user with history

Record who uses an object, for a vehicle the driver, and since when. When the driver changes, the previous one stays in the history. The licence plate is shown as a plate in the list and in the file.

Owner and life cycle

The owner is a role, and the supplier or maintenance party comes from your external parties register. Purchase date, purchase value, warranty and expected end of life are kept in the file.

A file with every link

The links tab brings together incidents, workplace inspections, actions, changes from Management of Change and documents: the object's history in one place.

Select instead of typing

On incidents, workplace inspections and the inspection planning wizard you pick the object from a list. There is deliberately no free-text field, so no half-typed machine names.

In practice

How it works

  1. 1

    Add an object

    Add a new object in four steps: what, where, owner and maintenance.

  2. 2

    Set up inspection and maintenance

    Choose what comes back, such as the APK or servicing, and enter the interval in months and the last date. Add as many as you need per object. The dates appear in the central calendar.

  3. 3

    Link from daily work

    Link incidents, inspections and actions to the object, so they appear in its file automatically.

  4. 4

    Report and monitor

    Report an inspection or maintenance as done, with outcome, cost and report. Filter on overdue or nearly overdue items and use the dashboard for types, statuses and due dates.

  5. 5

    Take out of use or dispose

    At the end of its life you set the object to out of use or disposed. Its history stays intact.

Standards and legislation

Where it helps you

BrydgeOne contains no text of the standards. Here you see which topics from standards and legislation this module helps you with.

Arbobesluit

With interval, responsible role and the recorded executions with report per object, you can show that work equipment is inspected on time.

Workplace inspection checklist: what to check and how to follow upA good workplace inspection checklist makes the difference between really seeing something and just walking a round. Below you can read what to check, how often, who does it and how to follow up findings, with an example checklist per theme. Keeping track of work equipment inspection and maintenance: how to build an inspection registerYou keep track of work equipment inspection and maintenance in a register that holds, per item, its identification, location, type of inspection, interval, last and next date, the party who carried it out, the outcome, the certificate and the status. As an employer you decide which equipment has to be inspected, have a competent person do it, and be able to show the written proof at the workplace. Below you can read how to set this up, where intervals come from, what to do after a rejection and what an example register looks like. Managing calibration of measuring equipment: register, interval and certificatesYou manage the calibration of measuring equipment with a register in which every instrument has its own line, with accuracy and tolerance, interval, last and next calibration date, certificate and status. Calibration establishes how much an instrument deviates from a reference, so you know whether you can still trust your measurements. Below you can read which instruments to include, how to set the interval, what to do when an instrument turns out to be out of tolerance and what an example register looks like.
Frequently asked questions

Questions about Objects

Is this the same as the machine register in the risk assessment?

Machines appear in both registers and are synchronized; changes are visible everywhere at once. Machines are also directly available as the scope of a machine risk assessment.

Can we also register tools or vehicles?

Yes, anything that needs inspection, maintenance or control can be added as an object. For a vehicle you record the licence plate, the APK inspection, servicing, insurance and the driver.

Why can't I delete an object?

Because something still refers to it, such as an incident, inspection, action, change or document, or because an execution of an inspection or maintenance has already been recorded. The system tells you what it is linked to; set the object to out of use or disposed to take it out of view.

Why a role as owner and not a person?

Because your setup then holds when staff change. Who fills the role is managed in Roles & responsibilities and in the employee profile. Who uses an object, such as the driver of a car, is recorded as an employee, with history.

Start small

Start with just Objects and expand when you want

You do not have to set up everything at once. Switch this module on, add other modules later and keep using the same data and the same app. BrydgeOne fits every organisation, from a small company to enterprise, and you only pay for what you switch on, from € 49 per month.

You only pay for the modules you switch on, from € 49 per month. In a demo we show how it works with your own processes.
