What we do

Start with the duty you are trying to meet

How it works

The same four steps, whichever service you book

Management system work starts the same way and then runs to an agreed programme rather than a single visit. Everything else follows this sequence.

Greenlight Call

Twenty minutes on the phone to work out what you actually need, which is sometimes less than you thought.

Scope and price

Confirmed in writing, with the turnaround date, before anyone comes to site.

Site visit

Sized to the site and the number of processes, agreed in advance rather than open-ended.

Report and debrief

We walk you through the findings and what to tackle first, in what order, by when.

Why the prices are published

Most consultancies make you enquire to find out whether you can afford them. The ranges above are on the site so you can budget before you pick up the phone, and so the conversation starts with what you need rather than what it costs. After the Greenlight Call you get a fixed figure in writing. No hourly billing, no open-ended day rate, no extras added afterwards. Multi-site discounts are available on every assessment service.

Where they overlap

Several often apply to the same site

Regulations are written separately but sites are not. Where more than one applies, the assessments are carried out in a single visit rather than billed as separate mobilisations.

Fire and DSEAR

Any premises holding flammable liquids, gases or combustible dusts needs both. The fire assessment covers escape and detection, DSEAR covers the substances and the zones around them.

PUWER and DSEAR

Where machinery runs inside a classified zone, the equipment has to suit the zone as well as being guarded and controlled.

Assessments and a system

Assessments tell you what to fix. A management system is what stops the same findings reappearing at the next one.

A retainer around all of it

Retained support keeps the documentation current between assessments and gives you someone to call when a client audit lands.

Not sure which you need?

That is the most common reason people call, and it is a fair question when several regulations land on the same building. Tell us about the site and we will tell you which duties apply to you, what they would cost, and which ones can be dealt with in the same visit.
