Capabilities:
Our Heavy Lifting Solutions
Engineered lifting, independent assurance, and full project control for high risk environments.
We support principal contractors, asset owners, and regulated sites with lifting assurance, technical planning, and delivery solutions that reduce risk before work begins.
Need Independent Oversight?
SITE LIFTING ASSURANCE & COMPLIANCE AUDITING
Independent audit and on site verification of lifting operations, documentation, equipment, and personnel competence.
We review:
-
RAMS and lift plans
-
Equipment certification and suitability
-
Personnel competence and authorisations
-
Permit systems and exclusion controls
-
Temporary works and lift support structures
Outcome:
-
Reduced incident risk
-
Stronger regulatory compliance
-
Documented audit trail for client and HSE assurance


Need Technical Plan Verification Before Site?
REMOTE LIFTING ASSURANCE
Independent desktop review of lift plans and engineering documentation before execution.
Most lifting failures originate at planning stage. We detect errors before they reach site.
Technical review includes:
​
-
Lift sequence and methodology
-
Load weights and centres of gravity
-
Crane configuration and utilisation
-
Radius, height and duty chart verification
-
Dynamic and environmental factors
-
Ground bearing pressures where provided
-
Risk assessments and emergency planning
-
Supporting certification and documentation
Outcome
-
Early detection of planning errors
-
Reduced overload and instability risk
-
Stronger compliance position
-
Documented technical assurance for client sign off

Planning Routes
Site Survey and Engineering Assessment
For complex operations, our engineers attend site to verify constraints, access, ground conditions, and lift routes.
​
Client Supplied Technical Data
Lift plans can also be developed using verified information provided by the Appointed Person or contractor.
Ownership & Compliance
Bowtec Heavy Lift engineers and prepares the lift plan.
The competent Appointed Person retains responsibility for approval and execution in line with regulations.
