Be Asbestos SMART: The Key to Efficient Asbestos Management for Growing Multi-Academy Trusts
Is your multi-academy trust increasing in size? Are you finding it increasingly necessary to consolidate and streamline your management processes?
Why not join our FREE webinar to see a live demonstration of UKNAR's latest Asbestos SMART management system and find out how our simple, cost-effective solution can make it easier to consolidate and streamline your asbestos procedures and manage asbestos safely across your growing school estate.
Many multi-academy trusts are continuing to grow. This is driven in part by Government policy and also recognition of the increased efficiencies and improvements that can be achieved through economies of scale. DofE data shows that between March 23 and March 24 the average MAT size grew from 7.6 to 8.2 schools with over 500 academies joining or forming a trust. Almost 9 in 10 large MATs expect to increase in size over the next two years.
Increased size can bring increased challenges
Whilst increased size reaps benefits, it also presents challenges, particularly for those responsible for managing not only a larger number of school buildings, but also a more geographically disparate school estate.
As the number of schools in your estate increases it becomes increasingly necessary to consolidate and streamline your processes. Asbestos management can be a particularly worrying problem. With an increasing number of contractors attending various sites to conduct minor works it's often difficult to be sure that they have all read and understood the asbestos registers for your properties and won't disturb any asbestos that is present.
However this doesn't need to be the case.
Asbestos SMART incorporates a host of new features, including updatable digital asbestos registers, contractor usage tracking, re-inspection reminders and the ability to link to your existing systems. It also allows you to store key documentation and easily share it with staff, visitors and contractors.
Find out how our simple on-site solution can take a weight off your team's shoulders and help you communicate vital information and manage your asbestos risks and contractors more effectively; irrespective of which asbestos consultants you currently use to conduct your asbestos surveys and re-inspections.
We do hope you can make it!
