Have you worked with sites near Stonehaven yards before?

Regularly — we work around Stonehaven Industrial Estate, Mearns Skip Hire, Local FishOps + harbour ops. That means we already know the gate, induction and permit routine, so the cohort starts on time.

Will our Stonehaven yards site suit on-site delivery?

Stonehaven yards sites are mostly harvest hubs, harbour stores, transport yards, which suits on-site delivery well — we need a safe practical area, a room or cabin for theory, and access for our vehicle off the A90.

Is this course right for site teams?

It's built for that buyer profile. The paperwork and cohorting are tuned to what site teams are usually measured on.

Is mobile crane accredited?

Yes — accredited certificates aligned with LOLER 1998, BS 7121 and PUWER 1998 are issued to successful candidates.

Is it worth running a cohort for 1–2 operators?

Yes — small cohorts work in Stonehaven yards because travel from Aboyne is short. We don't charge a minimum-headcount premium.

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
