From investment strategy to globally compliant machinery acquisition

The course also addresses applicable global and local machinery safety regulations and requirements, such as the European Machinery Directive, the European Machinery Regulation, OSHA requirements, Brazilian NR-12, OTR and other relevant legal frameworks or standards.
 

Making safer and smarter investment decisions

Participants will learn how to evaluate machinery risks before purchase, define clear safety requirements and align procurement processes with international standards, supplier responsibilities, technical documentation and applicable regulatory expectations. This helps organizations avoid costly redesigns, commissioning delays, missing safeguards and compliance issues after the machine has already been purchased.
