Why Professional RAMS Matter
Poorly written or generic RAMS are one of the biggest delays, non-compliance and unsafe lifting operations. Our RAMS are written by a competent Appointed Person (AP) with real onshore and offshore experience, ensuring your documentation is practical, accurate and aligned with the realities of the job.
Our RAMS provide:
- Clear identification of task-specific hazards
- Practical, achievable control measures
- Step-by-step safe systems of work
- Integration with lift plans, rigging studies and site constraints
- Compliance with LOLER, PUWER and BS7121
- Documentation that supervisors and rigging teams can actually use on site
Whether you need RAMS for a single lift, a complex removal/installation or a multi-stage operation, we can ensure your documentation is clear, compliant and ready for approval.
ALL RAMS are written to the same standard – clear, compliant, and ready for site execution.
