How MAEZ services relate to this website
Who this page is for and how training, consulting, and software connect
This page is useful for owner-operators, transport managers, executives, consignors, consignees, loaders, schedulers, contractors, and anyone who influences a heavy vehicle transport task.
MAEZ helps Australian transport and supply-chain businesses identify Chain of Responsibility, HVNL, WHS, NHVAS, training, audit, document-control, and Safety Management System gaps, then turn those gaps into practical controls and evidence.
Training
Chain of Responsibility training is delivered through cortraining.com.au. MAEZ provides the advisory and risk pathway, while the training platform handles course delivery and competency records.
Consulting
Chain of Responsibility consulting defines the risk, obligations, controls, and implementation pathway for your business.
Software (CoRGuard)
Where software is needed, CoRGuard supports the Safety Management System evidence workflow — structured records, reminders, audits, maintenance, driver diary checks, inductions, corrective actions, and evidence reporting. MAEZ identifies the gaps; CoRGuard helps you structure the proof.
If you have questions about how these terms apply to a specific engagement, contact MAEZ.
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.
Evidence path
From MAEZ advice to a working Safety Management System
Advisory work should leave a practical implementation trail. These examples show how CoRGuard supports records, fatigue and driver diary checks, maintenance, audits, document control, inductions, corrective actions, and evidence review after MAEZ identifies the gaps.
Training records
Connect training completion from cortraining.com.au to evidence and follow-up.
Driver diary checks
Connect fatigue and driver diary review back to manager visibility.
Corrective actions
Turn audit findings, hazards and incidents into tracked actions.
