L8MS - Risk Assessment

L8MS – Risk Assessment has been specifically designed to speed up the
process of producing a risk assessment report to allow the reader to
receive and access the report live from a secure web site.

The software has been designed to provide a uniform end product
as efficiently as possible and now conforms to BS8580.

L8MS - Manage

L8MS – Manage is software that has been specifically designed to conform to
L8 the control of legionella bacteria in water systems.

All monitoring schedules can be made specific to reduce the risk of
legionella in your water systems. The software database allows consultants,
service providers and client/building owners to access and control
inspections and monitoring like never before.

L8MS - Manage - Web

L8MS – Manage Web is software that has been specifically designed to replace the on site paper log book, which can seldom be found and is rarely up to date.

The software database can be accessed by a single or multiple user(s) to enter or view data, download or print reports direct from the website without the need to install any software on your PC.

L8MS - Manage - Mobile

L8MS – Manage - Mobile enables an engineer to download direct from the internet his or her site specific monitoring job tasks for the day or week.

Once completed, at the press of a button the results are saved direct into the management database without the need for paper.

The PDA/Mobile device must be compatible with Windows mobile V5.0 – V6.5

L8MS Risk Assessment

We believe L8MS Risk delivers: -

Uniformity when using many assessors.
Reduced write up times with re-useable surveys
Automatically generated site specific control schemes.
Central access for supplier, assessor and client.
The potential to increase quality without increasing effort.

Key Benefits:

Web based – No local software to install.
Central database – Service providers can give clients rapid access to risk assessments.
Excel surveys – With built in macros these allow fast survey write up. Assessors can also work in remote locations off-line, uploading when internet access allows.
PDF Reports – Clients can select and produce a range of reports locally on demand, saving and printing locally is also easy.
Uniformity – Multiple assessors or even assessment companies deliver reports in the same forma

L8MS Risk Assessment is a web based application providing a central point for service providers, risk assessors and clients to issue, assess and review site specific risk assessments.

However as all the surveys and assets are held in a database they can be exported to create fully populated site specific logbooks in our sister program L8MS Manage.

Over the years L8MS have learnt an important fact -

When an assessor is on-site in an awkward, rather unpleasant place a pen and paper have the ultimate flexibility. For example when assessing a new GRP cistern with all the gear there is no need to write about it stuck under a roofing strut, a quick sketch with some notes does the job.

When it comes to the write up L8MS Risk supplies equipment specific survey sheets in MS excel, with neat built in functions offering possible answers and recommendations.

The structured templates are fast, can be saved and reused for similar items on another job and help to ensure recommendations are made for every non-conformity. Take a look at a sample survey sheet by downloading the sample below.

Remarkably for many years there has been no standard for legionella risk assessment.

The WMS (Water Management Society) have published an updated guide to risk assessment.
BSI (British Standards Institute) have released BS 8580:2010 Water quality – Risk assessments for Legionella control. However this is not a specification fro risk assessment.
BISRIA (The Building Services Research and Information Association) have had 'GUIDE TO LEGIONELLOSIS - Risk Assessment' out for nearly 10 years.

None of these will deal with an issue common to many organisations responsible for the asset management of larger portfolios. Each contractor appointed operates their own system and is of course confident that it meets the employer’s needs and is 'better than most other risk assessments out there'.

Are any of these companies wrong? Well no probably not, but that does not help a large property owner priorities remedial works when looking at differing scoring systems and terminology.

L8MS Risk Assessment if specified at the tender stage allows more than one contractor to work on the project, or the project to be let over several stages and most importantly when it’s time to conduct the risk assessment review there is just one format.
