Whether your company has been a statuary undertaker since 1990, or if you are one of the many new up-and-coming fibre telecoms companies, ISM can always help you in some way deliver your programmes and improve your practice.
Perhaps you are a contractor, freshly excited by your new contract win and ready to take on the world. Let ISM help mitigate risk, limit your liabilities, and train your staff in all things street works.
Fixed penalties and very large potential fines for overruns (real and imaginary!), costs of defects and inspections, coring and more. ISM can provide and end-to-end review of your operations, work through and analyse your data to help identify systemic obstacles, or problems with your processes. We can provide options and solutions and help you implement the changes needed to bring down these costs to your business, streamline your processes and improve your day-to-day operations.
High permit refusal rate? Large numbers of FPNs? Poor site compliance? Not only are all of these things expensive, they delay workflows and create an environment of passive response, rather than proactive delivery. Upskill your workforce to ensure that they understand fully why they need to do things, and the problems that occur when they don't. Breadth of knowledge will ensure you're not one of the many contractors and SUs that flounder in a high-penalty and high-cost environment.
Short of a programme manager? not sure how best to integrate works flows and permits? ISM can help link everything together ensuring you meet the statutory timelines for permit submission and improve data quality and timeliness.
Submitting a permit should not be seen as simply a data-entry job. True permit management is the ability to recognise the duality between what a local authority expects, and what your programming team give you; to filter out what's not needed, and to add what is, and have the agency to reject poor information from the design and programme management teams, make adjustments where necessary and ensure that permits are submitted with a high approval rate. This brings confidence to your organisation, its contractors and the local authority.
this is not empty
ISM can inspect and audit sites to make sure they are fully compliant with not just your own internal risk and method statement requirements, but also with respect to the expectations of the local authority when it comes to Red-, Yellow- and Blue- book compliance, overruns and of course permit conditions. We can also provide pre-site audits for job preparation, either a desktop or site-based exercise.
