MAEZ Consulting
Stop losing sleep over transport compliance
MAEZ helps owner-operators get compliant, protect NHVAS accreditation, avoid fines, and build a Safety Management System that actually works. We find the gaps, fix the system, and connect the evidence.
Receiving windows, site rules, and unloading delays can all shape the transport task.
Unloading decisions can affect safety, scheduling, and responsibility.
Managers need a clear view of gaps before audit or enforcement pressure arrives.
Contractor controls should be verified before the work starts.

Find the gaps before they escalate
Trucks are moving, but maintenance records, driver diary checks, inductions, and contractor evidence are often scattered across systems. MAEZ helps operators bring those signals together, identify where controls are thin, and act before gaps escalate.
From fatigue and work diary checks to contractor vetting and maintenance tracking, MAEZ connects the evidence your Safety Management System depends on.
We build the Safety Management System around the work
MAEZ helps you put the real controls in place: maintenance, fatigue and driver diary checks, audits, document control, contractor and staff inductions, corrective actions, review rhythms, and evidence that can be shown quickly when it matters.
- NHVAS accreditation readiness and evidence gaps
- Maintenance, vehicle checks, faults, and corrective actions
- Fatigue controls and driver diary review
- Audits, document control, staff inductions, and contractor inductions
- A practical CoRGuard Safety Management System platform when software is needed
Training, advice, and software each have a job
MAEZ fixes the compliance system. Chain of Responsibility training is delivered through cortraining.com.au. CoRGuard is the SaaS Safety Management System platform for maintenance, driver diaries, audits, document control, staff and contractor inductions, alerts, records, and reporting.
Operational message set
Find the gaps. Fix the system. Prove the controls.
MAEZ helps transport operators deal with the compliance risk they already know is there. We help get the Safety Management System in order, protect NHVAS accreditation, reduce fine exposure, and connect training, evidence, and CoRGuard workflows where software is needed.
Find
Identify what is exposed before an auditor or regulator does.
Fix
Build the SMS controls around how the transport business actually runs.
Prove
Use CoRGuard where records, reminders, diaries, audits, and evidence need structure.

Frequently asked questions
Questions people ask about this topic
What does MAEZ do for transport operators?
MAEZ helps transport operators bring together maintenance records, driver diary checks, inductions, and contractor evidence so gaps in safety controls can be identified and addressed before they escalate. The focus is on building a practical evidence base that aligns with HVNL and NHVAS expectations.
Can MAEZ help with driver fatigue and work diary checks?
Yes. MAEZ supports fatigue management through driver diary checks, helping operators monitor work and rest records and identify where additional controls or review may be needed. This aligns with the fatigue management obligations set out in Chapter 6 of the Heavy Vehicle National Law.
Does MAEZ offer Chain of Responsibility consulting?
Yes. MAEZ reviews the transport task, identifies duty holders under the HVNL, assesses current controls, and prioritises the gaps that matter most to your operation before implementing software. Consulting is delivered through maez.com.au, while TLIF0009 training is delivered via cortraining.com.au.
What is the difference between MAEZ consulting and CoRGuard?
MAEZ consulting provides advisory and readiness support for HVNL compliance, NHVAS accreditation, and Safety Management System development. CoRGuard is a separate SaaS platform that MAEZ recommends for ongoing evidence management — storing training records, corrective actions and compliance documentation after consulting and training are complete.
