No ride manufacturer in the amusement industry has a documented standard for verified operation of their equipment. We build one — ride-specific, ASTM-aligned, white-labeled, and deployed across your entire install base. Your operators, verified on your rides, running them to your engineering spec, under your name.
That's not a criticism — it's a different design point. Park-aligned programs solve park problems. Manufacturer-aligned verification solves manufacturer problems. Your equipment. Your spec. Your standard.
Built to serve the facility's needs — scheduling, staffing, multi-ride coverage, guest service standards. Training is authored by the park to fit the park's operational model.
Built from OEM documentation to ensure the ride is operated the way it was engineered. Every procedure traces back to the manufacturer's spec — not a park interpretation of it.
When operators are trained to a park-authored standard, they learn "how we do it here." When they're verified to a manufacturer standard, they learn "how the ride was designed to run." The difference shows up in dispatch times, load efficiency, restraint check speed, and ultimately — whether your ride performs to the capacity number you published in the sales spec.
When a park takes delivery of your ride, they write their own training binder — or nothing at all. Every installation in your fleet is defining "qualified operator" independently. That's not their problem. That's yours.
One incident at a park running your equipment, with no documented manufacturer training standard on record, puts you in a very difficult conversation with your attorneys and insurers. The paper trail stops at delivery.
A ride-specific operator verification program changes that. Your equipment. Your standard. Your documented verification record at every installation — and operators running the ride the way you engineered it to run.
Prove the model on one ride at one park. One ride-specific verification course built against your OEM documentation. Data Intelligence Pro included at no additional charge. Parks get a completion record — you get a documented verification standard and operators running your equipment the way you designed it.
Not a new credential for parks to administer — a manufacturer verification record. Your lead operators complete the course, pass the assessment, and receive a completion record under your brand. You can tell every park in your install base: "Your operators have been verified on our equipment per ASTM F770-19." That's your stamp, not a third-party program. $350/person/year per site + $250/each additional ride for annual reverification — covers all rides at that location.
Every new ride that sells gets a verification course. Every park that operates your equipment gets verified operators running it to spec and incident analysis on record. The program scales with your sales — no new negotiation required.
Course builds front-load Year 1 revenue as the catalog gets built out. After that, the growth engine is the platform fee — $500 per unit per year, compounding with every ride sold. Annual reverifications add a second layer — $350 per verified operator per site, annually. Every new park enrolled adds reverification revenue. Every new ride sold into an enrolled park adds platform fee revenue. Course builds are the catalyst. Platform fees and reverifications are the floor that never goes away.
You present it to the park as your own offering. AS delivers under NDA. The margin between what you pay AS and what you charge the park is 100% yours to keep.
AS publishes floor prices — what you pay us. What you charge the park is entirely your decision. Verification program, DIP, incident response, channel services — you mark up however you choose.
Every deliverable carries your branding. No AS logo, no AS contact, no AS visibility to the park unless you choose otherwise. AS invoices you at the floor price. You invoice the park.
Courses, verification records, quarterly reports, incident response — all under your name. Parks with existing internal training can verify their lead staff through your program without replacing their LMS or retraining line-level operators.
New ride sales drive verification revenue going forward. But your existing install base — every park currently operating your equipment below theoretical capacity with no documented standard — is a separate market available right now.
The easier first conversation. Parks in the existing install base already have lead staff who know the ride cold. The verification program documents those people as manufacturer-verified operators — no new training system, no LMS replacement. Just a documented verification record for a ride that's been running without one.
AS builds the verification course against specs already on file — no SOP submission required from the park. Faster build, lower friction. Operators learn the OEM-specified sequences that close the gap between how the ride is running and how it was designed to run.
The outreach angle: you contact existing parks as a manufacturer safety initiative — not a sales call. "We're establishing a documented verification standard for qualified operation across our fleet. As an existing operator, you're invited into the program."
Retrofit bundle: course build + first year platform fee + first cohort verification. One transaction — park is fully stood up.
Every park operating an existing ride has incident history, seasonal patterns, and operational data that's currently invisible to you. Data Intelligence Pro surfaces it — benchmarked against every other installation of the same ride type, normalized by attendance.
Lead with operator verification to get the park into the program, then introduce DIP at the first renewal. Once a park has verified operators and a quarterly incident report coming in under your brand, the relationship is established and the full program is a natural expansion.
See a sample dashboard Live DemoOperator verification is the easier first conversation — it only requires enrolling existing lead staff in a course built from specs you already hold. DIP requires data submission and a quarterly reporting relationship. Lead with verification, then introduce DIP at the first renewal.
The verification program doesn't replace anything. It documents existing lead staff as manufacturer-verified operators on your equipment. It's not another credential to administer — it's a completion record the manufacturer can reference. That objection dissolves on contact.
Parks with existing training programs may be training operators to a park-authored standard that drifts from OEM spec. Verification realigns their procedures to your engineering intent — which is almost always the most efficient procedure. Tighter dispatch, faster loads, fewer unnecessary stoppages. The safety case and the efficiency case are the same case.
Beyond the core verification and DIP program, AS operates a full suite of safety services you can offer to park clients as white-labeled products. Every deliverable carries your branding. AS publishes floor prices — what you charge the park is your decision.
Every service in this catalog gives you a reason to contact a park outside of the ride sales cycle. Together these services transform you from a hardware manufacturer into a year-round operational partner — and that relationship depth makes every future hardware sale easier to close.
The operator verification program is structured against the ASTM standard for ownership, operation, maintenance, and inspection of amusement rides. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (LOTO) is incorporated under §8.2 duties.
Operator must perform and document a structured pre-opening inspection before each operating day. The verification course includes a ride-specific pre-opening checklist module. Verified operator signs off daily — record retained in LMS.
Operators must be trained in proper ride operation and applicable guest safety rules, with training documented. The verification course covers full ride systems, restraint verification, rider screening, and guest communication — all from OEM documentation. Completion record with unique ID issued on 80% pass.
Operator is responsible for safe loading, restraint verification, emergency response, and LOTO compliance during maintenance operations. The verification course includes LOTO per OSHA 1910.147, emergency stop and evacuation procedures, and incident command basics. OEM-specified load and dispatch sequences optimize both safety and throughput.
Training must include a supervised field demonstration by a qualified person who documents that the trainee performed all required tasks correctly. The verification program includes §8.3 documentation protocol and supervised demonstration facilitation. The verified lead operator is the manufacturer's qualified person of record — 1 per site.
Step by step, from contract to verified operators on the ground running your equipment to spec. Every new ride gets a course automatically — no new negotiation required.
Ride manual, technical spec, or operating fact sheet for the installation. AS works from your source material — every procedure traces back to your engineering.
Ride-specific verification course with your branding on every deliverable. SCORM 1.2 package delivered — drops into any LMS, or hosted on the AS portal under your brand. ASTM F770-19 §8 aligned throughout. OEM dispatch and load sequences built into every module.
Park's lead operator completes the verification course, passes the 20-question assessment at 80%, receives a branded completion record with unique ID and 12-month validity. They now understand the ride the way you engineered it — not just the way their park runs it.
Pilot data collection feeds into the first quarterly incident analysis. Incident heatmap, ride-type benchmarking, performance patterns — delivered as a branded PDF under your name. Every subsequent quarter builds on the baseline.
See a sample dashboard Live DemoAnnual reverification at $350/person/year per site plus $250/each additional ride onsite. Platform fee at $500/ride/year. Both compound with every new sale and every new park enrolled. Course builds are the catalyst — platform fees and reverifications are the floor that never goes away.
One client relationship. No park-level procurement complexity. Clear obligations on all sides.
You sign a single MSA with Amusement Standards covering: per-ride course build fee schedule, annual platform hosting fee per ride ($500/ride/year), quarterly Data Intelligence Pro delivery obligations, incident response retainer terms and SLA (48-hour response), white-label and IP ownership terms (you own the courses built for your rides), and park end-user terms incorporated by reference. Parks are named as end users — they never sign separately. You manage the park relationship. Amusement Standards manages the product.
The pilot proves the model works — ride-specific courses built and deployed, manufacturer verification documentation on record, operators trained to your engineering spec, incident analysis baselines activated. Safer operations and higher throughput — from one signature.
