Legionella auditing

Archer + Stone offer a legionella auditing service. This allows councils, universities, housing associations and other clients with large property portfolios to have an independent report produced on their current legionella management scheme. An example is a council with say 430 buildings using 3 firms to carry out legionella risk assessments, clean and disinfection works and monitoring programmes spending around £580,000 pa. They are unlikely to have the time to oversee all the work and ensure value for money. Archer + Stone can carry out spot inspections, site visits, paper based report reviewing, data analysis, interview personnel from contractors, do background checks and research to provide the client with a fair appraisal.

Benefits of our service

The benefits are:- an independent viewpoint, a fair review of the whole legionella control and management scheme, a cost benefit analysis, highlighting potential savings, spotting areas to improve, praising good management and best practice. We use industry knowledge, site visits and comparison techniques to evaluate each firm.

This gives the client confidence in the current regime or evidence to take up with each contractor if required. The responsibility of selecting contractors, checking their credentials, supervising their work and the legal obligations of legionella control are with the client. We are here to help you achieve that by carrying out independent auditing. This service is tailored to meet your requirements and can be a one off audit or an ongoing commitment e.g. 1 or 2 days per week or month.

Reduced risks - and costs

We are genuine, competent, passionate independent consultants that you can trust. Our philosophy is to help clients comply with the laws, reduce the risk from legionella and reduced the costs of managing that risk.
