Morgan Maxwell has entered into collaboration with CerebrumEdge, the company behind the ErgoEdge platform, to roll out next-generation ergonomics assessments to organisations throughout the UK and internationally.
With ErgoEdge, assessments can be carried out rapidly and consistently on site using mobile technology. The platform applies AI-powered posture analysis and incorporates workflows fully aligned with guidance issued by the UK Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
All evaluations are overseen by chartered ergonomics and human factors professionals, combining scientific rigour with meaningful support for workplace improvement.
Why this matters to H&S leaders
Musculoskeletal disorders remain a leading cause of lost working days. Health and safety teams need assessments that are consistent, auditable, and fast enough to keep pace with production. The Morgan Maxwell + ErgoEdge partnership combines a proven mobile platform with AI-driven posture measurement and CIEHF-chartered practice to help duty-holders identify risk, prioritise controls, and demonstrate due diligence.
Professional assurance: Morgan Maxwell is registered with the Chartered Institute of Ergonomics and Human Factors (CIEHF). Client engagements are led and reviewed by chartered professionals, so methods, training, and recommendations meet recognised professional standards.
“This partnership brings together CerebrumEdge’s proven ErgoEdge platform with our chartered professional practice,” said Stephen Bowden, Chartered Ergonomist at Morgan Maxwell. “H&S teams get rapid, mobile assessments underpinned by CIEHF standards — with AI-enabled posture measurements and clear, defensible guidance they can act on.”
A CerebrumEdge spokesperson added: “We designed ErgoEdge to put HSE-recognised tools and computer-vision posture analysis in the hands of assessors on the shop floor. Partnering with Morgan Maxwell ensures organisations also receive expert implementation and ongoing support.”
What’s in the platform
- Mobile-first assessments: Capture tasks, postures, and loads on the shop floor — no clipboards, no spreadsheets.
- AI posture measurement: Computer vision estimates joint angles and working postures from phone video/images for accurate, consistent, repeatable metrics that reduce assessor subjectivity.
- HSE-based toolset: Built-in MAC (Manual Handling Assessment Charts), ART (Assessment of Repetitive Tasks), and RAPP (Risk Assessment of Pushing and Pulling).
- Industry-standard methods: REBA, RULA, and the NIOSH Lifting Equation for comprehensive whole-body and upper-limb coverage.
- Consistent, auditable scoring: Structured inputs, clear outputs, and an audit trail to standardise assessments across departments and sites.
- Action-oriented insights: Prioritised controls and improvement plans that make it easy to brief stakeholders and track progress.
Services and training
Under the partnership, CerebrumEdge provides and continues to develop ErgoEdge, while Morgan Maxwell delivers consultancy, implementation, and ongoing support. To embed best practice, Morgan Maxwell also offers CIEHF-aligned Ergonomics Champion training so internal teams can plan and conduct assessments, interpret results (including AI-derived posture metrics), and implement practical interventions that sustain improvements.
