Typical managing mobile plant scenarios on Westhill Tech Park sites

  1. Scenario 1

    Designing a one-way site traffic plan with separate gates for plant and pedestrians

  2. Scenario 2

    Verifying operator competence on a sub-contract crew you've never used

  3. 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

FAQs

What if we need to rebook?
We hold dates flexibly. If site conditions change, we move the cohort — there's no rebooking fee for genuine site reasons.
Can you cover night or weekend shifts?
Yes — we routinely cohort sessions around shift handovers and weekend possessions, with no shift premium.
Do you do follow-up observation visits?
Yes — short post-course observation visits are a cheap way to lock in the behaviour change auditors actually want to see.
What evidence do you return?
Photo-ID certificate, assessment record, regulation mapping and refresher-due date. Sent to whichever HR / training system you use.
How much does managing mobile plant cost for a team in Westhill Tech Park?
Day rates for managing mobile plant typically fall inside the band the course brief lists. Cohort size, novice/refresher split and travel are the main drivers — we send a fixed price, not a day rate × headcount.
