Case Study: Ensuring Asbestos Compliance Across 170 Sites
The Challenge:
When a well-established pub and brewery company, reached out to Oracle Solutions, they were facing a daunting challenge. With 170 sites scattered across Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, and Northamptonshire, they needed a robust solution for asbestos management. But as we delved into their existing records, it became clear that their asbestos data was outdated, inconsistent, and, in some cases, entirely non-compliant. Some sites had never been surveyed, while others had reports dating back to the early 2000s. There was no uniformity, no clarity, and, most importantly, no guarantee of safety.
It was a ticking time bomb. The risks of non-compliance and potential asbestos exposure were too great to ignore. They needed a solution—and they needed it fast. After a thorough review of their records, we knew the best approach was to resurvey every single site in accordance with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. This would bring all locations up to date and provide a clear, structured plan for future management.
Oracle’s Response:
We wasted no time. Our team of experts put together a comprehensive compliance strategy, designed not only to resolve the immediate concerns but also to set plan future-proof asbestos management processes. Within days, our surveyors were on-site, working tirelessly to assess each location.
The scale of the project was immense, but we tackled it head-on. Over the course of three months, our specialists visited every one of the 170 sites, meticulously conducting full asbestos management surveys. Each location had its own unique challenges, but our team adapted quickly, ensuring minimal disruption to daily operations. Alongside the surveys, we updated and consolidated all asbestos records, creating a single, cohesive database that would serve as a reliable compliance tool moving forward.
It wasn’t just about documentation; it was about action. During the assessments, we identified ten sites that required urgent asbestos removal. These weren’t minor issues—these were high-risk locations that needed immediate attention. We activated emergency removal procedures, mobilising our removal teams to handle the issue safely and efficiently. The well-known brewery could rest easy knowing that the most critical risks were being managed without delay.
The Results:
By the end of the project, they had a fully compliant asbestos management system in place. Every site had been surveyed, every report had been updated, and every urgent risk had been addressed. What had once been a fragmented and outdated system was now a streamlined, legally compliant process that provided total peace of mind.
The impact was immediate. They no longer had to worry about inconsistencies or outdated records. With their asbestos management data securely stored in our online portal, they had instant access to all reports, updates, and recommendations at their fingertips. More than that, they now had a trusted partner in Oracle Solutions—one that understood their business, responded quickly, and worked with precision.
