PAT Testing RAMS

Post by justinsanero »

Hello,

Need a bit of guidance.
A subcontractor just submitted RAMS for PAT testing but are too generic.
Any important point to look at it? or questions to ask?
Need to mention that this is first time when reviewing such RAMS.

Looking forward to hearing from you all.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Justinsanero :wave:

Quite a lot of missing information for anyone to be able to give any real feedback:
  • What sort of environment is it? (Office, warehouse, manufacturing facility, construction site)
  • Are they a recognised PAT Testing company
  • Are they insured as such?
  • You say too generic, that is fine, but have they visited your work-site to see specific equipment, layout and hazards to be more specific?
  • Does your company have pre-approved suppliers, or are they working for you for the first time?
