Functional Safety: Electric Light Vehicle
E.S.M. provided functional safety engineering services to a local automotive manufacturer in their development of a fully electric light vehicle for a mine site in NSW.
E.S.M. engineering studies have included:
E.S.M. engineers seek to understand the Client operating environment and tailor each engineering study to ensure meaningful outcomes and recommendations.
Engineering studies generally include a determination of the requirements followed by analysis against those requirements to generate recommendations to address short-comings or differences. Requirements are determined in relation to the operating context and the relevant legislation, standards, industry guidelines and best practice.
Analysis against requirements can include review of technical documentation such as drawings, manuals, reports and procedures, site visits and operator interviews, and analysis of data sets such as incident and work-order records and asset databases.
Studies are typically delivered in a detailed report, providing a record of the identified outcomes and recommendations.

In recent years, E.S.M. has assisted numerous clients to implement a Safety in Design process for their business. To comply with their duties under the Work Health and Safety Act (or the Occupational Health and Safety Act in Victoria), companies should have an end-to-end Safety in Design process.

E.S.M. has recently been involved with two rail projects: one to conduct signalling project management for a level-crossing removal project and the other to analyse the performance of automatic train protection (ATP) on a line that has issues with poor on-time-running performance.
E.S.M. recently facilitated a 4-day Detailed Design HAZOP for a major upgrade project on a minerals processing plant. E.S.M. worked with the owner, engineering service provider and vendors to facilitate the HAZOP in multiple sessions in line with progression of the design.
For a large infrastructure client, E.S.M. conducted a comprehensive Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM) study for a safety-critical asset type.
