CHANTILLY, VA — Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors’ National Association’s (SMACNA’s) safety management software, “Safety Excellence Plus,” is customized specifically for and is now available to the sheet metal industry, the association said.

The hope is that the software will cut down on the amount of paperwork filled out by safety personnel, which will in turn leave more time to spend on preventing accidents.

“You’ll spend less time keeping up to date with regulations,” said SMACNA, “as a website offers updates. In the event of an emergency, you will be able to find the information you need quickly.”

Members may receive their first copy free and purchase additional copies for $50. Nonmembers will pay $650 per copy. Members who previously purchased this software will receive a refund as well as a software file containing any updates to this current version.

For more information, contact James Strother, SMACNA director of safety and health, at 703-995-4027 (phone); or at jstrother@smacna.org (e-mail).
