Typical managing mobile plant scenarios on Aboyne yards sites
- Scenario 1
Designing a one-way site traffic plan with separate gates for plant and pedestrians
- Scenario 2
Verifying operator competence on a sub-contract crew you've never used
- Scenario 3
Plant-on-pedestrian near-miss: investigation, lessons, and traffic-plan rework
Audit findings this prevents
- Traffic plan drawn at tender stage and never updated as the site phases changed
- Competence assumed from a card — never physically observed on your machine
- No incident-investigation template, so the same near-miss happens at every project
