Coordinating Rigging and Access Support

Crane and mechanical rigging often sits alongside scaffolding, access, inspection and other project support. Coordinating these activities can help teams plan around shared work areas, operational priorities and mobilisation requirements.

Summit's stated capabilities include rigging inspections and lifting support, High Risk Work Licence and competency verification support, and scaffold design and engineering coordination. The exact requirements depend on the lift, site and client procedures.

Safety planning should identify the work method, roles, equipment and relevant interfaces before execution. Summit describes a risk based approach supported by pre start planning, SWMS, JHAs, task specific risk assessments, toolbox meetings and ongoing communication.

Bring the access and lifting teams into the planning conversation early, confirm the applicable site controls, and coordinate inspection, mobilisation and work sequencing with the wider project team.

General information only. Site conditions, client procedures and applicable standards determine the right approach for each job.
