Lockout/Tagout Procedure Review for NC Operations

LOTO failures are one of OSHA's top fatality-driver standards. A focused on-site review of your machine-specific procedures, authorized employee training, energy-isolation hardware, and annual audit — written report in 48 hours. From $1,200.

Built for Manufacturers, Fabricators & Maintenance-Intensive Operations

Small to mid-size manufacturers and fabricators with multiple energy sources on the floor (electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, thermal, gravity). Operations where maintenance is performed by in-house technicians, contractors, or rotating shift supervisors. Operations preparing for an OSHA inspection, an insurance loss-control audit, or a customer compliance review.

Common Findings

No machine-specific written procedures for equipment with multiple energy sources. Procedures exist on paper but are not posted at the machines, or are out of date relative to current equipment. Annual audit not performed or not documented. Authorized employee training not refreshed when new equipment is added or when procedures change. Lock and tag hardware not assigned to individual employees (shared locks, generic tags). Group lockout / shift change handoff practices not formalized.

What Gets Reviewed

Written Control of Hazardous Energy program against your actual machinery list. Machine-specific lockout procedures (sample audit). Authorized vs. affected employee training rosters. Lock and tag hardware: sufficient quantity, dedicated assignment, color/tag standardization. Annual procedure audit documentation under 1910.147(c)(6). Group lockout and shift-change practices. Contractor and outside service LOTO coordination.

What You Receive

Photo-documented finding list against 29 CFR 1910.147. Severity priority (high / medium / low) per finding. Specific corrective actions, with CFR citation. Machine-specific procedure template if your existing format is incomplete. Annual audit template if missing. A "top 5 fixes" summary the plant or maintenance manager can act on first.
