Provides guidance for arranging and undertaking intrusive surveys on behalf of the Department of Housing and Works, ensuring asbestos-containing materials (ACM) and other hazardous materials are identified and managed prior to refurbishment or demolition.
For project managers and those arranging works, it outlines when surveys are required, how to effectively scope and procure them, and how findings inform design, budgeting and delivery, supporting early decision-making and ensuring outcomes are reliable, consistent and fit for purpose.
For asbestos and HAZMAT consultants, it establishes clear expectations for planning, undertaking and reporting surveys, including competency, systematic methods and practical risk-based recommendations, supporting consistent quoting and delivery aligned with regulatory and industry standards, including the ASSEA National Guide for Asbestos Surveys.
