HUB Team Haugen + Burley
What This Page Is For:
This webpage is a example of how we market your business to insurance carriers. At HUB on Team Haugen, we build tailored underwriting pages to give carriers a clear understanding of your company, operations, and risk profile.
By showcasing your story, strengths, and specific insurance needs, we give underwriters the information they need to quote accurately and competitively. More importantly, it helps us create deeper engagement with underwriters, so we can negotiate from a place of partnership and knowledge, leading to better coverage and better pricing for you.
Safety and Operational Risk Management at Burley
Burley is dedicated to designing and manufacturing gear that families trust. That same commitment to safety and quality extends into every aspect of Burley’s operations. From engineering and assembly to warehousing and shipping. As a brand built on reliability and adventure, Burley prioritizes disciplined risk management to protect its team, customers, and reputation.
Key risk management measures include:
Manufacturing and Equipment Safety
All production equipment is routinely inspected and maintained to ensure safe and consistent operation. Employees receive hands-on training for machinery use, with clear protocols in place to reduce the risk of injury and equipment failure.
Warehouse and Fulfillment Operations
Warehousing and order fulfillment processes are structured for safety and efficiency. Material handling systems are designed to minimize lifting strain, prevent product damage, and keep pathways clear. Inventory is organized to reduce clutter and support a streamlined workflow.
Workplace Safety and Training
All staff participate in regular safety training that includes topics such as ergonomics, emergency procedures, and hazard awareness. Training is reinforced through posted reminders, toolbox talks, and leadership follow-up to ensure accountability across departments.
Product Integrity and Quality Control
Each Burley product goes through rigorous testing and inspection to meet high safety standards before leaving the facility. This includes compliance with U.S. and international safety certifications relevant to trailers, strollers, and accessories.
These measures allow Burley to operate with precision and care while maintaining the trust of families who rely on their products every day. Safety is not just a policy, it is part of the culture that drives Burley forward.
Operational Efficiency with Safety at the Core
At Burley, operational excellence means more than getting products out the door. It means doing so with precision, care, and a commitment to safety that reflects the trust families place in their gear. From product assembly and warehousing to packaging and logistics, Burley integrates safety-conscious planning into every stage of its operation to ensure reliability and peace of mind.
Key strategies include:
Organized Assembly and Workflow Management
Production lines and assembly areas are structured to minimize movement hazards and ensure ergonomic workflows. Components and tools are arranged for efficiency, and each station is designed to reduce strain and enhance precision throughout the build process.
Warehouse Safety and Storage Protocols
Burley’s warehouse is laid out with clearly marked zones, safe stacking procedures, and frequent inspections. Equipment such as forklifts and pallet jacks is operated by trained personnel, and pathways remain clear to support safe and efficient movement of goods.
Packaging and Fulfillment Accuracy
Each product is packaged with care to prevent damage in transit and meet customer expectations. Fulfillment teams follow detailed checklists and safety protocols that balance speed with accuracy, reducing risk and ensuring customer satisfaction.
Transportation and Carrier Coordination
Burley works closely with logistics partners to plan shipments that align with safety guidelines and delivery goals. Load planning, route optimization, and secure packaging all contribute to reduced risk during transport and a smoother customer experience.
Technology Integration and Oversight
From inventory management to maintenance tracking, digital tools help streamline operations and prevent issues before they arise. These systems allow teams to work more efficiently while keeping safety and quality at the forefront.
With these practices in place, Burley continues to deliver high-quality gear while protecting the people, processes, and principles that drive its mission. Operational efficiency is not just a goal—it is a reflection of Burley’s promise to build with purpose and integrity.
