To ensure that precautions continue to be carried out and that adequate information is available for checking what is done in practice, a record should be kept showing the information gathered during inspection and monitoring visits and all remedial works carried out as a result.
In addition, the purpose of a Log-Book system is to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of installation and maintenance, and also to provide a record of various tasks and observations so that the plant history can be reviewed at any time by the maintenance staff.
TECHNICAL DATA
We will design, populate and implement on site a
bespoke, electronic data management programme
to enable the Reporting and Logging of the site’s
Legionellosis Management & Control Programme.
The brief features of the Programme include:
- The data collected and collated during the Risk Assessments process using the ®EDC System is exported automatically to the System. Data not collected by the ®EDC will be uploaded manually.
- The System has been specifically designed for Legionellosis Management & Control Reporting and Logging – totally “in-house”.
- The system is fully compliant with ACoP (L8) and HTM04-01 requirements and has been designed in consultation with HSE specialist inspectors.
- The system is written in Visual Basic with SQL database behind.
- It produces reports in .pdf format and stores information in SQL.
- It is totally flexible and can be adjusted to specific client requirements.
- Runs the site Usage Evaluation and Flushing Programme.
- Remote support via the 3N system.
