COMAH Consultation
At the heart of everything we do is the principle of simplifying the complex language of process safety, making it accessible and relevant to each team member, regardless of their role or level. Instead of merely completing projects for compliance, we seamlessly integrate with your teams, partnering to guide, coach, and mentor. This enables you to build confidence and competence in major accident prevention and process safety at an individual and organisational level.

Why Choose Us?
By aligning our approaches with known industry issues, we ensure that our solutions address
real-world process safety challenges both within and outside of the Control of Major Accident
Hazards (COMAH) framework. Some common challenges that we help to solve include.
- Confusion regarding the identification of Major Accident Hazards (MAH): There are still many instances where HSE enforcement actions are taken due to companies lacking an understanding of the approach necessary to identify all COMAH MAH scenarios.
- Preparing a COMAH Safety Report that is understandable, proportionate to the site's risks, and integrated with "business as usual".
- Streamlining the risk assessment approach to ensure that the appropriate level of risk assessment is applied to Lower Tier and Upper Tier sites in a cost-effective manner.
- Understanding the language within communications from the COMAH competent authorities so that the optimal approach can be selected for legal action closeout.
- Defining “how safe is safe enough” as part of an overall strategy to demonstrate that risks are as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP).
- Ensuring that the safety management systems (SMS) for companies new to COMAH meet the requirements of COMAH and are linked to the Major Accident Prevention Policy (MAPP).
- Alignment of Vendor package risk assessments with the requirements for COMAH risk assessment.
- Ensuring that business leaders are competent in elements of major accident leadership and can confidently demonstrate this to the regulatory authorities.
- Alignment of company safety metrics and audits with COMAH and process safety.
