"Short notice, high volume, nationwide electrical inspections and remedial work to meet new legislation"
Big 6 Energy Company
With annual revenues of £21 billion and 25,000 employees, our client is the UKs largest domestic gas and electricity supplier.
With their “people and planet” initiative they’re aiming to be a net zero business by 2045.
Background
During the COVID19 pandemic, The Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020 came into effect.
From 1st April 2021 a ‘satisfactory EICR’ report was required for all new and existing tenancies.
Many of our clients customers were legally required to have an EICR.
The challenge
Our client faced a major challenge. They needed contractors to carry out EICRs nationwide. Contractors who could work at a high volume, high quality and fast.
All EICR’s had 10 months to be finished. Missing this deadline could lead our client being fined up to £30,000 per property.
How we helped
Our electrical division advised our client on mobilising a a national EICR operation.
We also integrated our management software with our clients to improve speed, communication and efficiencies.
In 2021, we completed over 12,000 EICRs for our client.
