IMAP auditors survey an organization’s
piping, equipment, buildings and structural systems for the purpose of
identifying the existence of asbestos containing materials (ACM). A detailed
survey of the mechanical insulation, fireproofing and building systems
includes, sampling, tagging, labelling and documenting where asbestos
exists.
IMAP auditors are knowledgeable,
experienced, competent professionals trained in the use of the IMAP software
and the provincial Regulations respecting Asbestos on Construction Projects
and in Buildings and Repair Operations that apply to the work, and who know
of all potential or actual danger to health or safety in the work.
What
does an Asbestos Auditor do?
-
Conduct audits
on equipment, piping, structures and buildings
-
Uses sample
point system for sampling of materials
-
Collects and
submits samples to an accredited laboratory for analysis
-
Identifies all
equipment, piping, structures and buildings with asbestos or non-asbestos
identification system
-
Marks-up P&ID’s/drawings
to identify the existence of asbestos or non-asbestos segments within your
facility
-
Prepares a record
containing condition, location, comments, lab results, audit details,
drawings, and photos into IMAP's electronic asbestos management software
Provincial legislations require that all businesses aware of the existence
of asbestos within their facilities must have an asbestos management program
in place. IMAP Audits Inc. developed a systematic approach to meet this
need. Using IMAP’s leading edge technology, audits are conducted to identify
where asbestos exists and the physical condition of these asbestos systems.
Results of the audit are tracked using IMAP’s leading edge software by
integrating sample results into engineer’s drawings and plant isometrics and
incorporating digital imaging for ease of identification. These records
become an invaluable risk management tool. By identifying where asbestos
exists, prioritizing maintenance requirements, abatement priorities, and how
to approach repairs if asbestos exists, increases plant safety and reduces
business risk exponentially
