Health and Safety Key Services

Comprehensive health and safety services for effective project outcomes.

Project Supervisor for the Design Process (PSDP)

We provide PSDP services across the full project lifecycle, with early-stage involvement during planning becoming a preferred approach for clients seeking to streamline delivery and reduce risk from day one. By identifying and addressing design risks early, we help prevent costly issues, avoid delays, and ensure a smoother transition into construction. Throughout a project, we lead the coordination of safety across the design team, manage design risk registers, liaise with all duty holders, and ensure compliance from initial concept to final handover, embedding safety into every stage of the process.

Construction stage – PSCS support

While the Project Supervisor Construction Stage (PSCS) role is formally appointed to the contractor, we support our clients with experienced Health and Safety Coordinators throughout the construction phase. We liaise with the PSCS, monitor compliance, review safety documentation, and help ensure the client’s legal duties are fully met, providing added confidence that Health and Safety is being properly managed on site.

ISO management systems

We specialise in developing ISO management systems that are tailored, practical, and built to support your organisation’s success. Whether it’s ISO9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental), or ISO45001 (Occupational Health & Safety), we help you create systems that work in the real world, not just on paper. With in-house lead auditor expertise, we bring an auditor’s perspective to every stage of the process, from gap analysis and internal audits to system development and certification readiness, ensuring you’re fully prepared for external assessment.

Site inspections and safety reporting

Our team conduct clear, objective site inspections to identify real-world risks and ensure standards are being met. Our reports offer prioritised, practical recommendations, supporting contractor oversight, internal audits, or client accountability at any stage of delivery.

Health and safety training

We deliver targeted training across all levels, from frontline teams to senior management. Designed to be practical, engaging, and industry-specific, our training helps organisations embed a stronger safety culture and ensure staff are equipped to work confidently and compliantly.

Advisory support and retained services

We offer ongoing Health and Safety support through flexible retainer packages, giving your business direct access to expert advice, regular reviews, and practical guidance tailored to your needs. It’s a smart, cost-effective way to stay compliant, manage risk, and get peace of mind year-round.

Expert witness and insurance support

We provide expert witness services for investigations, legal matters, and insurance claims, delivering clear, independent assessments grounded in real-world experience. We also partner with insurance providers to assist their clients in meeting policy and compliance requirements, helping reduce risk and improve claim readiness.

Incident investigation and regulatory liaison

We support organisations responding to workplace incidents with structured investigations, root cause analysis, and engagement with regulatory bodies such as the Health and Safety Authority. We help ensure the right corrective actions are taken quickly and support communication with insurers, stakeholders, and internal teams throughout the process.
