As clients, contractors and operators look to specify CLOCS standards to drive safer, leaner and greener construction logistics, the procurement process is a vital and powerful mechanism to set these standards from the outset with clarity for all.

With a growing appreciation that logistics touches every part of the construction process, this forum explained how digitising delivery management can directly impact HSE stats, reduce project costs and ensure programme predictability.

As we strive to ensure the vehicles servicing the construction industry are equipped to do as safely as possible, there are a number of standards and checks in place to monitor the roadworthiness of a vehicle, but do tyres get the time and attention they deserve?

In this safety forum we were joined by Glen Davies from CLOCS Delivery Partner AtoH Solutions, who has worked with a range of construction companies and projects and adapted best practice from other transport sectors to develop a vulnerable road user risk assessment methodology.

In this safety forum we were joined by Gareth Jones, Group Fleet Compliance Manager for Speedy Hire, who spoke about how Speedy Hire have approached the Direct Vison Standard requirements and embraced technology as part of the solution.

In this session, we were joined by David Somers, MD of CLOCS Delivery Partner Road Skills Online, who talked to the CLOCS community about bridge strikes, a high-profile topic with the Traffic Commissioners and an issue that can affect us all.

In this session, we were joined by Jason McComb, CEO of CLOCS Strategic Partner The Association of Vehicle Installers, to discuss the importance of using a competent qualified installer for your vehicle safety systems and how to make sure that your system complies with the various Standards.

In this session, we were joined by DEKRA Business Development Director, Daryl Wake. Former non-commissioned officer in the Royal Australian Navy and long-time health and safety professional, Daryl has improved safety for companies around the world in some of the most high-risk industries and most challenging locations.

CLOCS was created with a clear focus on improving safety standards, and while this remains at the core of CLOCS, it has broadened its remit over the years to look at how construction logistics can improve efficiencies, saving time and money, and also drive down emissions and improve air quality.

Whilst we focus much of our attention on how to avoid collisions with vulnerable road users, there are a number of suicides each year that we perhaps know less about, and therefore don’t understand the role we might play in avoiding such tragedies.

The principal aim of CLOCS is zero fatalities or serious injuries from construction related vehicle movements and a key part of achieving that aim is understanding the underlying causes for such incidents.
