Health and Safety<br />
This is one of the major areas which is fundamental to<br />
the success of BE and therefore our clients. H&S is often<br />
overlooked or taken as a given. Bearing in mind that as<br />
Directors of the SMC, you are directly responsible for<br />
all aspects of Health and Safety and that all issues of<br />
compliance are met, it should be one of the main priorities<br />
for you.<br />
As such, BE continually invest heavily in H&S systems which<br />
are industry leading and the most transparent you will find<br />
of any property management company.<br />
As Directors, you are responsible for every single aspect<br />
of H&S throughout the development. By employing a<br />
management agent, this responsibility is not diminished,<br />
which is why it is important that you employ the correct<br />
one.<br />
By using the management expertise of BE you will<br />
know that your development is well managed and fully<br />
compliant with current legislation. Our in-house legal team<br />
will also be able to help with keeping you abreast of all<br />
future changes that are forthcoming and as such you will<br />
be fully prepared.<br />
Car Park Vents<br />
The car park vents are integral to the look of the<br />
courtyards and therefore need to have an attractive value,<br />
value-for-money, low maintenance solution.<br />
One solution, which would also deter residents from<br />
walking across them and therefore preventing damage, is<br />
to install planters or a sedum style roof. This is extremely<br />
hard wearing, low maintenance, attractive and will<br />
discourage vandalism.<br />
Car Park Lighting<br />
The car park lighting looks to be on constantly, and whilst<br />
we understand this from a security point of view, we have<br />
similar sites whereby this has been reduced whilst not<br />
creating a dangerous environment.<br />
This is done by changing the lighting to LEDs and to put<br />
them on PIR sensors, so that they are only on when they<br />
need to be. Therefore the car park will always be light if<br />
someone is in it and will be off the rest of the time.<br />
On our other sites where we have implemented this<br />
change, the lights have paid for themselves in less than<br />
18 months and the savings on electricity have been<br />
astonishing.
