Quality framework
RAMS on every site visit. Photographic record on every job.

- RAMS-led method statements
- Photographic as-built reporting
- Working-at-heights certified climbers
- SafetyCulture digital checklists
- Driver, medical and induction training

How we work
RAMS principles.
RAMS principles are applied across preventive, corrective and emergency maintenance activities to protect network availability and SLA performance.
1. Reliability
Reliability refers to the ability of a system or component to perform its intended function under specific conditions for a defined period.
2. Availability
Availability measures the readiness of a system to perform its functions when required during operation.
3. Maintainability
Maintainability relates to the ease and efficiency with which a system can be maintained, repaired or serviced.
4. Supportability
Supportability involves the provision of adequate resources, tools and infrastructure to sustain system operations throughout its lifecycle.
