Shape Energy Tōtika Accreditation: Making Health & Safety Excellence a #1 Priority

We’re proud to announce that Shape Energy is now officially Tōtika accredited, a significant milestone that reinforces our unwavering commitment to health, safety, and operational excellence in everything we do.

Health and safety is more than a regulatory requirement—it’s an integral part of our culture and a key driver of how we deliver value to our clients. In an industry where risks are real and expectations are high, maintaining robust safety systems isn’t optional; it’s essential. That’s why achieving Tōtika accreditation is so important—it validates our internal processes against a nationally recognised standard and strengthens our ability to work seamlessly with clients, contractors, and suppliers across New Zealand.

Shape Energy works at the forefront of critical infrastructure, delivering end-to-end solutions for UPS systems, diesel generators, industrial air compressors, battery storage, containerised data centres, and microgrids. With such a diverse and high-stakes project portfolio, having a trusted and transparent health and safety framework is vital—not just for us, but for every stakeholder involved.

Tōtika accreditation takes our commitment a step further. It ensures we meet a universal H&S pre-qualification standard, making it easier for clients to work with us by removing repetitive, time-consuming compliance steps. It also helps us save time, reduce costs, and maintain a consistently high level of performance across all our projects.

Totika Acreditation – Shape Energy

Tōtika is New Zealand’s unified pre-qualification framework for health and safety. Prior to its development, contractors and suppliers often had to complete multiple, inconsistent pre-qualification schemes for each client. This resulted in duplicated effort, wasted time, and increased costs for everyone involved.

Tōtika streamlines this process through:

• One universal H&S standard, providing consistency across the industry.

• Cross-recognition of existing audits and certifications (like ISO 45001, SafePlus, and Q-Safe).

• A centralised framework that allows suppliers like Shape Energy to pre-qualify once, and be recognised widely.

The result? A more efficient and fair procurement process—without compromising on health and safety.

Shape Energy’s Tōtika accreditation signals to clients and partners that:

• Our health and safety systems meet nationally recognised standards.

• We are ready to work on high-risk or complex projects without delays caused by fragmented compliance requirements.

• You can engage with us as a pre-qualified partner, saving time and effort in procurement.

Tōtika doesn’t remove your responsibility as a client—but it does give confidence that you’re working with a business that takes health and safety seriously and has been assessed by an independent, industry-aligned process.

With Tōtika in place, we’re excited to:

• Further reduce friction for clients engaging our services.

• Bid on large-scale projects with confidence.

• Continue strengthening our internal safety culture as we grow into new sectors like microgrids, containerised datacentres, and battery systems.

Tōtika may be a behind-the-scenes system, but for Shape Energy, it represents something bigger: a smarter, safer, and more collaborative energy industry.

Achieving Tōtika accreditation is more than just a compliance milestone for Shape Energy — it’s a reflection of our ongoing commitment to safety, quality, and professionalism across everything we do. As we continue to support critical infrastructure and energy systems throughout New Zealand, this accreditation gives our clients added confidence in choosing Shape as a trusted, qualified partner.

By aligning with the national standard, we’re not only reducing complexity in the procurement process, but also helping set a higher benchmark for health and safety across the industry.
