Why teams in Kintore book this

Typical mobile crane scenarios on Kintore sites
- Scenario 1
Tandem lift planning with two cranes and a single AP
- Scenario 2
Ground bearing pressure check on a yard with unknown made-up fill
- Scenario 3
Lifting over a live road or rail — exclusion zone, banksman positioning
Audit findings this prevents
- No written lift plan for a 'routine' lift — fails almost every BS 7121 audit
- Outriggers not fully extended because of yard width — capacity halved silently
- AP and supervisor roles combined in one person, which BS 7121 prohibits
FAQs
- 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.
- 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.
- Is mobile crane accredited?
- Yes — accredited certificates aligned with LOLER 1998, BS 7121 and PUWER 1998 are issued to successful candidates.
