EWP Certification Victoria
Victoria's construction sector runs continuously across Melbourne's CBD, inner suburbs and a development pipeline extending through Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo and the regional corridor. The EWP fleet serving those sites — boom lifts and scissor lifts on building and civil works, truck-mounted cherry pickers for utilities and telecommunications, insulated platforms for electrical maintenance, and scissor lifts in Victoria's large manufacturing and warehousing sector — needs its certification kept current under AS 2550.10, with documented annual inspections and periodic testing alongside the major structural assessment when each machine's age demands it.
We cover Victoria state-wide — Melbourne's full metropolitan area and outer fringe, Geelong and the Surf Coast, Ballarat, Bendigo, Shepparton, Mildura and the regional and Gippsland corridor. One enquiry against your Victorian EWP fleet establishes what each machine needs, when it falls due, and coordinates every step through one contact so nothing expires while your team is focused on operations.

The Process
Identify the Victorian machine and its certification history
We note the make, model, age and location within Victoria, review the existing logbook and any prior reports, and map the unit against what AS 2550.10 and the manufacturer require. The output is a clear picture of what is due now and what is approaching.
Inspect and test at the Victorian site
Mobile field service means the inspection comes to the machine — Melbourne metro, Geelong, regional VIC — rather than requiring you to transport it. The assessment covers annual inspection, NDT, load and stability testing, and the full major inspection when the machine's age threshold is reached.
Engineering review where the Victorian machine needs sign-off
Structural findings, modifications or completed repairs that require engineering assessment are handled by the same team rather than being outsourced — one contact, one documentation set, no gaps between the inspection record and the engineering report.
Certify and document for Victorian compliance
Every inspection and test result is recorded in the logbook and a full written report. You receive documentation that satisfies Victorian WHS obligations, procurement auditors and principal contractors — organised, traceable and current.
Compliance & Standards
Victoria's work health and safety framework places duties on plant owners and duty holders to keep equipment safe and to maintain records that demonstrate it. For elevated work platforms, AS 2550.10 sets the inspection and testing regime — annual inspections, periodic NDT and load testing, and the major structural inspection that falls due at the interval the standard and manufacturer require for the specific machine class. The certification is the living documentary record built from that ongoing process. We do not invent schedules to generate additional work; the correct frequency is determined by the standard and the machine's history.

Common Questions
Can you certify EWPs anywhere in regional Victoria?
Yes. We cover the full Victorian geography — Melbourne, Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Shepparton, Mildura, Gippsland and rural locations. Mobile field service means we come to the machine; if your site isn't listed, raise an enquiry and we will confirm before scheduling.
My Melbourne construction site requires proof of current EWP certification. What does that involve?
Site EWP certification requirements in Melbourne typically mean an annual inspection is current and recorded, together with any periodic testing required for the machine class. We produce a full inspection report and logbook entries that satisfy principal contractor and site auditor requirements.
How often does a Victorian EWP need to be inspected?
AS 2550.10 requires a documented annual inspection at minimum, with periodic testing — NDT, load and stability — at intervals determined by the machine class and duty cycle, and the major structural assessment when the machine's age threshold arrives. We map each Victorian machine individually against these requirements rather than applying a blanket schedule.
Do you cover scissor lifts in Victorian warehouses and distribution centres?
Yes. Scissor lifts in warehouse, logistics and manufacturing environments in Victoria are fully within scope — including routine annual inspections, load testing appropriate to the platform class, and the major assessment when due.
