About Equipment and Controls

Equipment and Controls Safety Consulting provides specialized workplace safety solutions with a unique focus on industrial equipment safety and automated system compliance. Located in Lawrence, Pennsylvania, our team combines engineering expertise with safety consulting to help manufacturers and industrial facilities maintain safe operations while optimizing equipment performance. Our technical background in equipment systems allows us to identify safety risks that other consultants might miss, particularly around machinery guarding, lockout/tagout procedures, and automated equipment safety protocols. We've helped over 200 local businesses achieve OSHA compliance while improving operational efficiency, proving that safety and productivity can work together rather than against each other.

How They Can Help

Our specialized consulting services focus on equipment-related safety compliance, including comprehensive machinery safety assessments, automated system safety audits, and custom lockout/tagout program development. We conduct detailed evaluations of production equipment, conveyor systems, and automated machinery to identify potential hazards and ensure proper safeguarding. We develop comprehensive safety programs specifically tailored to equipment-intensive operations, including machine-specific training, maintenance safety procedures, and emergency shutdown protocols. Our services extend to electrical safety assessments, compressed air system evaluations, and process safety management for chemical handling equipment. We also provide specialized training for equipment operators, maintenance personnel, and safety coordinators on topics ranging from basic machine safety to advanced troubleshooting procedures that maintain safety integrity during equipment servicing.

What to Expect

Your consultation begins with a detailed discussion of your equipment inventory, production processes, and any recent safety concerns or incidents. We'll schedule a comprehensive facility assessment focusing on equipment-specific hazards, reviewing machinery documentation, maintenance procedures, and existing safety protocols. Our technical evaluation includes testing safety systems, reviewing electrical installations, and analyzing equipment operation procedures. Within one week, you'll receive a detailed report with equipment-specific recommendations, prioritized action items, and implementation timelines. We provide ongoing support during upgrades or modifications, ensuring all changes maintain both safety compliance and operational effectiveness.

Service Area

We serve Lawrence and the greater Butler County area, extending our specialized equipment safety consulting throughout western Pennsylvania's manufacturing corridor. Our technical consultants regularly work with facilities in Allegheny, Beaver, and Mercer counties. For complex equipment assessments or multi-facility projects, we'll travel up to 75 miles to provide our specialized industrial safety consulting services focusing on equipment and control system safety.
