Let’s take a look at SPRAT’s requirements for equipment management, maintaining equipment records, and inspection requirements.
SPRAT states on their website: “ SPRAT’s Regulatory Assistance Committee maintains a Work at Height Standard Reference which presents a non-exhaustive list of standards that may pertain to equipment used in rope access. As stated in that document, “ensuring that a standard, or specific equipment conforming to a standard, is appropriate for specific rope access applications and/or for meeting presiding regulatory authority requirements is a requirement within a properly managed rope access program.” For assistance with regulatory compliance, SPRAT also maintains a Presiding Regulatory Authority Reference”
As well as the pre-use checks we are so accustomed to in work at height, SPRAT’s Safe Practices for Rope Access Work requires:
- that equipment has a detailed inspection annually at minimum
- that in addition to annual inspections, equipment is inspected and maintained according to the manufacturer’s specifications
- that manufacturer’s instructions and Declarations of Conformity for your equipment should be kept on record
Scannable’s equipment database makes it easy for you to keep a record of the required documents without having to search for them, or keep an office full of paperwork!
Scannable also gives you a space to keep detailed inspection records, giving you everything you need to meet SPRAT’s requirements, all in one place, along with every other piece of information about a piece of equipment you could possibly want to know!
SPRAT asks companies to establish and monitor an equipment inspection and maintenance program to ensure that inspection history can be traced from purchase to retirement. Equipment must be stored according to manufacturer’s instructions and retired in adherence to manufacturer’s criteria. Scannable makes this process easy.
Users can log an item’s date of manufacture and its date of first use. Each inspection can be comprehensively recorded with notes, images, and details of any changes, and historic inspection results recalled through to the item’s retirement.
This gives the ability to view the life of equipment at the touch of a button, from where the item has been stored when not in use, to what jobs it has been on throughout service.
If you’re looking for an easy way to meet your SPRAT requirements, give Scannable a go! You’ll be stoked you did.
