North American specialist contracting business Lagan US, Inc. chose AssetTagz to manage its plant and equipment. Lagan US, Inc were looking for a solution to improve its plant & equipment management. "We needed to take control of the management of this equipment." explains Norman Halliday, Commercial Director at Lagan US. "Using spreadsheets for much of the process can mean a lot of manual intervention and time lags in getting information to the relevant parts of the business. "We are seeing immediate benefits from the system. Already our defect management process has taken a significant leap forward. Whereas before it could take anything from a couple of days up to a week to find out about a problem with a machine, head office now gets notified of any defects as soon as an inspection takes place, so a job requisition can be raised. As well as the improvement to operational efficiency, this also means a huge step towards our safety compliance goals.

Pro-Flex CSST: Enhancing Gas Piping Safety  According to Carson Dunlop's comprehensive guide "Everything You Need to Know about Gas Piping," natural gas stands out as an economical and efficient choice for heating systems. However, with its benefits come significant safety concerns, particularly for homeowners. As a home inspector, it's crucial to be vigilant about identifying potential deficiencies that could jeopardize the safety of occupants relying on natural gas. Inspecting gas piping involves understanding the layout and components of the system. The piping within a house, known as the gas supply line or building line, connects to branch lines that lead to individual appliances. These branch lines terminate in drop lines or risers, which are vertical pipes descending from overhead branch lines to the appliances. Read more: https://lnkd.in/dvGhMfWG

TICA’s technical director, Chris Ridge, said: “There are several manufacturers of PIR board operating in the UK and TICA is aware of only one PIR product that is certified for specific use with externally located ductwork. We have witnessed the use of many different PIR brands and clearly many of these have not been certified for the required application. Warning over use of combustible insulation boards on ductwork by Cristina Lago: TICA-ACAD ’s technical director, Chris Ridge, said: “There are several manufacturers of PIR board operating in the UK and TICA is aware of only one PIR product that is certified for specific use with externally located ductwork. We have witnessed the use of many different PIR brands and clearly many of these have not been certified for the required application. Everyone in the supply chain must ensure that the correct products are being used. Manufacturers, distributors, and installers all have a responsibility.” He added: “Manufacturers need to be clear and unambiguous about where their product can and can’t be used. The one manufacturer that has certified their PIR product for use with ductwork is very clear about the fact that its product is only suitable for externally located ductwork. “The ambiguity that exists elsewhere will only increase the chances of PIR products being used in internally located ductwork applications. “Clients also need to take responsibility and ensure that they employ only competent specialist sub-contractors to insulate ductwork.” https://lnkd.in/ee4hGAVj

Controling receiving the material and equipment process ( suggested procedure). Controlling the receiving and storage of materials and equipment is vital for ensuring work quality. It involves following manufacturer instructions, client requirements, and project specifications. All project departments - warehouse, quality, execution, and safety - must collaborate for proper procedures in receiving, storing, handling, and using materials on-site. The supply department notifies the warehouse and quality teams about material delivery schedule. Upon arrival, the warehouse informs the quality department and provides the warehouse receiving report (MRR). The warehouse conducts initial checks: 1. Verify shipping documents and plan material storage based on type and manufacturer recommendations. 2. Inform execution and quality teams about the material arrival. 3. Participate in inspections to assess condition and compliance with delivery documents. 4. Coordinate inspections with the quality department before releasing or storing materials. 5. Ensure compliance with regulations and instructions for safe handling. 6. Follow storage recommendations from manufacturers. 7. Adhere to health and safety instructions, including Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS). 8. Provide equipment and labor for unloading and storing materials. 9. Inspect materials and issue a Delivery Note (DN) with supplier and manufacturer details, description, quantity, certificates, and inspection results. 10. Report manufacturing defects or faults to the quality department and document in the MRR. 11. Temporarily store materials in a dedicated "receiving" area until inspections are complete. The quality department conducts inspections, verifying reference documents and issuing a Material Inspection Request (MIR) for customer inspection. Inspection outcomes may include: 1. Acceptance of materials for on-site use. 2. Rejection of materials not meeting standards. 3. Acceptance of materials with remarks, addressing the issues before use. Subcontractors are responsible for storing their equipment and materials as per contractual terms. They must resolve defects, damages, and shortages. The Quality Engineer /Department conducts monthly inspections, ensuring compliance, cleanliness, and viability of stored materials. The warehouse should maintain a storage map, prioritize cleanliness, protect against environmental factors, and have proper lighting and ventilation. Internal storage should be weather-resistant, secure, and separate from the execution area. Material handling practices should prevent deterioration or damage. Eng.

Nearly 20 years ago, Aquatherm took its first steps into the North American market with the introduction of its PP-R green pipe plumbing system in Canada. Aquatherm has come a long way since those early days, specifically with our PP-RCT blue pipe product line, extensive fabrication services and substantial expansion into the mechanical/HVAC and industrial markets. We are pleased to announce some material changes to the Aquatherm structure in Canada, consistent with our focus on blue pipe and the mechanical/industrial systems. As part of these foundational changes, Aquatherm has recently signed national contracts with both G.S. Equipco Ltd and Cascade Flow Control Solutions to allow Aquatherm better support the Canadian market moving forward. G.S. Equipco Ltd  Aquatherm and Equipco have had a strong relationship as regional partners in almost all provinces. Moving forward, Equipco will now act as our Aquatherm Sales Representative across all of Canada, effective July 1, 2024. Equipco has been an excellent resource for sales and support of Aquatherm in the past, and we look forward to expanding this partnership to all of Canada. This national alignment between Aquatherm and Equipco will provide a more strategic focus on project-based solutions for owners and engineering firms in these markets. Cascade Flow Control Solutions  Historically, much of the Aquatherm product support has come from distribution locations in the United States. We are pleased to announce Aquatherm has partnered with Cascade Flow Control Solutions to inventory and distribute Aquatherm products throughout Canada. We anticipate having this distribution service fully operational by September 1, 2024, with the initial focus and support being in western Canada with Cascade warehousing product directly in Calgary, Alberta. This will help ensure Aquatherm product is available for our Aquatherm contracting partners throughout Canada. This will also be a change from our historical distribution strategy, as our current Aquatherm Partners will get their Aquatherm products directly from Cascade rather than shipping from the U.S. Aquatherm will follow up with each of our distribution partners to explain these changes in more detail. Similarly, Cascade will be reaching out to our current distributors to set up each of our current partners as a resource for them as well. We look forward to supporting you in these recent changes, as we look to reset, and materially improve our support of the Canadian market.
