OUR CORE SERVICES

Safety Management Systems (ISO 45001)

Integrated Management Systems (IMS)

Combine your safety, quality, and environmental frameworks into one cohesive system. A smarter, simpler way to manage compliance, reduce duplication, and prepare for audits or tenders.

System Reviews & Upgrades

Already have a system in place? We provide full reviews and renovations. Like fixing up an old house, we keep what works, remove what doesn’t, and modernise the rest — making it fit for purpose today.

Our comprehensive consulting covers every aspect of safety, quality, and environmental (QSE) compliance
— all tailored to your business needs.

Management Systems – Practical, ISO-aligned safety, quality, and environmental systems that work with your operations, not against them.

Compliance & Certification – Get audit-ready with tailored support to meet ISO, legislative, and client compliance requirements.

Auditing – Independent QSE audits that identify gaps, improve performance, and satisfy tender and regulatory expectations.

Accident Investigation – Professional, independent investigations that uncover root causes and prevent recurrence.

Risk Management – Proactive frameworks to identify, assess, and control your most critical WHS, quality, and environmental risks.

Advice & Support – Flexible, on-call guidance and mentoring for internal safety officers or one-off compliance questions.

Planning & Documentation – Clear, custom QSE plans, procedures, and policies that reflect how your business actually operates.

OUR PROVEN APPROACH

Most QSE consultants hand over paperwork. We deliver systems that work.

We start with your business — reviewing your operations, understanding your risks, and identifying how your current system is being used (or not). Then we build plain-English frameworks that are clear, usable, and aligned with your goals. From standalone safety plans to fully integrated management systems, every solution is designed to reduce risk, support compliance, and improve performance.

Testimonials

We’ve been working with Tim from Safeguard Consulting for around four years now, but I’ve known and worked alongside him for more than a decade.

He’s our go-to for anything to do with accreditation, workplace health and safety, quality, and environmental systems. Tim’s experience, especially with defence and state government projects, really shows.

He’s responsive, reliable, and always understands the urgency of what we need. Everything he delivers is spot on. Tim just gets it — he knows how to make systems work in the real world, not just on paper. Plus, he’s easy to get along with and genuinely great to deal with.

I’ve been working with Tim for close to a decade now, and he’s been a huge help across all my major commercial projects.

Tim handles everything related to safety — from setting up the project systems, documentation, toolbox talks, and client meetings, right through to ensuring we’re meeting all legislative requirements. What I really appreciate is how responsive and proactive he is. I can call him anytime, and if there’s something he doesn’t have an immediate answer for, he’ll research it and get back to me straight away.

Tim really knows his stuff when it comes to construction safety and understands our industry inside out. He’s passionate about what he does and plays a big part in helping me keep my projects running smoothly and safely.

Steven Prior
Maidavale Construction
We’ve only been working with Tim for a few months, but he’s already had a massive impact on our business. As we’ve grown, we realised we needed someone with real industry experience to help manage our workplace health and safety and guide us through our ISO accreditation.

Tim’s been the perfect fit — he understands civil construction and transport, and he really knows his stuff. He’s quick to help whenever we need something, and if we have a question, he’ll track down the answer straight away. We recently had an issue that required a detailed investigation, and Tim stepped in to review all our systems, policies, procedures, and SWMS.

He dug deep, helped us demonstrate the systems we already had in place, and gave us confidence in where we’re at and what we can improve. It’s been a really positive experience working with him so far.
