For over 30 years Mandate Systems have been specialising in pressure systems written schemes of examination, with our sole focus being written schemes and industry training. We are fully independent and do not provide any other services or equipment replacement, we will not be in direct competition with service providers.

This stance put us in good stead to support hundreds of industry providers, being their partner of choice for written schemes of examination. To expand on this, back in 2016 we launched PressureSafe which is a member based subscription, software platform and training plan which supports service companies to undertake examinations in line with the Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000 (PSSR).

As experts we are well placed to train members in all aspects of undertaking statutory examinations linked to minor air and steam equipment, we can then work alongside where needed to produce dual branded written schemes with chartered engineer sign-off.

With access to our cloud based system and IOSH approved engineer training we can help you provide a one-stop-shop for your customers by upskilling your existing service engineers.

Find Out More About Written Schemes

A written scheme of examination (WSE), is a legal document required prior to use of pressure systems. This is legislated by UK regulations detailed in Pressure System Safety Regulations 2000 (PSSR) . It details items within a pressure system that necessitate examination by a competent person.

Frequently Asked Questions

PressureSafe is packed with guidance and advice on pressure systems safety, but we have also provided answers to some frequently asked questions. Please let us know if there is a question you would like the answer to that isn’t listed here.

Your engineers will be trained by experts who are well versed in the Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000 (PSSR) and understand what are yours and the customers obligations to be compliant.

You will be able to offer a one-stop-shop to your customer by not only supporting the supply and service of pressure systems, you will also be able to offer minor system statutory examinations and by working in collaboration with us, provide a written scheme for your customers.

This will provide your company with an additional revenue stream, take the hassle out of compliance for your customer and with our competitively priced offering, allow you to be competitive with attractive margins.

Engineers should have a minimum of 6 months pressure experience. For example they should already know the basics such as making equipment safe, interpreting data plate information and with an understanding of mechanical equipment.

We have a range of date options available for engineers to attend a day’s zoom training. This is interactive with live polls, discussions and breakout group tasks along with workbook activities.

Day 2 is made up of online assessments with one invigilated multiple choice exam and two open book assessments to submit remotely.

Once your engineers are fully trained and passed our IOSH assessments they will be provided system logins and have access to our technical engineer and experience examination engineer surveyors who can support them remotely as an when required.

All reports are independently checked and we have a 5 star rating where all reports submitted are quality checked, where required details are fed back to the engineer to upskill and your allocated manager will be made aware for quality assurance.

Our training is based on non destructive examination tests on compressed air, receivers, safety devices, autoclaves and accumulators.

You are responsible to ensure the engineer has competent skills and is familiar with the equipment you specialise in.

Our engineer examination training is certificated by IOSH, an official award certificate will be issued after successfully passing the 3 assessments. The course also qualifies for CPD points (continual professional development).

As part of your annual PressureSafe subscription payment, it provides access for trained engineers to our bespoke portal. This is cloud based allowing your engineers to log on whilst onsite, 24/7 and captures all examination details. Once stored the information is then saved and is available for you to refer back to each year, making subsequent visits quicker.

To meet the Pressure Systems Safety Regulations and produce a written scheme you need to be classed as a competent person based on experience and knowledge and also depending on the type or equipment be IEng or Ceng qualified.

For service providers who want to create a written scheme, we can work in partnership with you to produce a dual branded written scheme. This will incur additional fees at pre agreed rates.

Initially we set up for the service partner to have access to the portal with your customers linked. This allows you to manage annual renewals of examinations. You can share details with your client to log in and only view their report. We are here to support and can agree briefing and set up at the onset.

We do offer a reduced rate training for those signing up to our PressureSafe membership, however if you just wish to book engineers, managers of pressure systems, or H&S personnel onto our course for greater depth knowledge, this is certainly an option and something that we have done many times in the past.

Our training and membership rates vary based on the volume of engineers, we are happy to provide you an accurate pricing by emailing pressuresafe@mandatesystems.com or calling 01274 691091.

It certainly is an option to be a PressureSafe member without attending our training, all we ask is for a copy of the training certificate from another recognised training provider. This must have been undertaken within the last 3 years.

We have been in operation for over 30 years and for the last 10 have worked in partnership with many leading service providers. This was based on undertaking examinations and written schemes on their behalf or supporting them via PressureSafe. We are trusted and honourable with good T&C’s to be fair and transparent. Our reputation is key and we are not a company who will condone or act in an underhand way.
