MANAGEMENT AND CLEARANCE CONTRACTOR DUE DILIGENCE REPORTING

The overall planning, tasking, and analysis of ERW related information is complex and in the majority of cases, the threats posed by Landmines and UXO are not considered during normal Construction and Oil and Gas Project development processes.  The skills required to mitigate these threats are normally a new field of Project activity but failure to address them will more than likely lead to significant impacts on the overall Project programme.  Most organisations do not have a dedicated ERW mitigation capability to assist in identifying schedule crunch from the outset.

The early engagement of appropriate ERW Clearance expertise and resources is therefore crucial to these projects, as there is a high element of exposure to risk that ERW can bring to a Project.

Qualissol can provide expert ERW Clearance Project Management Services which will provide their Clients with the capacity to ensure the following:

  • That ERW Clearance work is planned, executed, and expedited in the safest and most cost effective way to International Quality Standards.

  • That appropriate specialist capability and experience is available to allow construction to proceed on schedule without ERW related incidents.

  • That the high exposure to Health, Safety, and Environmental risk that ERW can bring to a Project is maintained at As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP).

  • That potential Client Damage to Reputation is minimised.

  • That there is no irrecoverable damage to the project by maintaining the highest ERW Clearance safety integrity.

  • That no significant liabilities flow back by not adopting the correct ERW mitigation strategies.

Although this service can be provided remotely, Qualissol has learnt from past experience that this option does not provide optimum results and they recommend that a dedicated Qualissol provided ERW Project Manager resides in-situ with the overarch Project Team for the duration of the ERW Clearance Programme, thus providing an immediate and accessible Landmine and UXO Clearance focal point.

ERW Clearance Contractor Due Diligence Reporting

Qualissol will assist their Clients to identify reputable and safe ERW Clearance Contractors who have proven and appropriate experience that will enable them to achieve Contract Deliverables to the required standard, on time, and within budget.

Qualissol will achieve this by investigating and evaluating the proposed business opportunity for their Clients to ensure that due care is exercised by them during transactions.  As such, this service spans investigations into all relevant aspects of the past, present, and predictable future of the business of a target ERW Clearance Company.

Key Client Benefits

  • Confirmation that the target company is what they appear to be.
  • Identification of potential defects in the target company, thus avoiding bad business transactions.
  • Obtaining information that will be useful for valuing assets, defining representations and warranties, and/or negotiating price concessions.
