Meet the Global Platforms Team
The Global Platforms team brings together leadership, project managers, and IPAF-certified operators who deliver safe, compliant access solutions across the UK. From the first site survey to the final handover, our team plans carefully, communicates clearly, and works efficiently—so your programme stays on track and your people stay protected. Because every site is different, we match the right equipment and skills to your job, whether you need a tracked spider MEWP for a tight courtyard, a short-term tower for a quick repair, or a bespoke platform for repeat maintenance routes.
The Global Platforms Team: Safety-First, Site-Ready
Safety comes first, always. Therefore, our supervisors develop RAMS specific to your site, brief crews thoroughly, and verify compliance before work begins. In addition, we tag equipment, record inspections, and complete clean handovers, so you can evidence best practice with zero hassle.
Leadership & Project Delivery Experts
Our leadership team aligns design, hire, and operations to keep projects moving. Moreover, project managers coordinate access windows, traffic management, and out-of-hours deliveries where needed. As a result, you get predictable timelines, tidy setups, and minimal disruption to tenants, shoppers, or production lines.
IPAF-Certified Operators and Access Specialists
Because capability matters on live sites, our operators hold IPAF and relevant trade certifications. They set up quickly, operate precisely, and adapt safely to changing conditions. Whether you’re switching signage, repairing façades, or accessing roof-plant, the Global Platforms team brings the right mix of skill and equipment.
Bespoke Access Platforms & Repeat Maintenance
When repeat access is required, we design and build bespoke platforms and walkways. Consequently, you cut rehire costs, shorten shutdowns, and reduce risk over the asset’s lifecycle. We handle surveys, floor-loading checks, and interface details, then deliver a right-first-time install.
Where We Work and What We Cover
We support commercial, industrial, heritage, healthcare, and retail environments nationwide. Typical tasks include glazing, cladding, lighting, telecoms, gutters, roof-plant maintenance, and internal M&E. If your site has narrow aisles, sensitive floors, or restricted headroom, we still find a safe, compliant route.
