OCL Regeneration Ltd, a company operating three waste management facilities for recycling tar-bound asphalt materials, had demonstrated their technical competence through an individual with WAMITAB certification. However, as the individual was set to retire, the company needed to explore options to replace this competency.
OCL contacted WRM to help them investigate the various routes available for certification. This included: WAMITAB, which involves training and portfolio development, and CMS (Competence Management System), which integrates into the business more holistically. WRM proposed delivering a CMS route, including staff training and preparation for audit, as a fixed-price service.
The CMS helped identify gaps in knowledge and training, and facilitated improvement in staff performance and career development. It also freed up more time with a reduced EA attendance time requirement. The system aligned well with environmental permitting regulations and there was no requirement for revision and exams. WRM was pleased to support OCL in this new management system venture, and looks forward to working with OCL Regeneration closely in the future.
“I would like to thank WRM for their assistance in guiding OCL Regeneration to achieving the Competency Management System (CMS) accreditation, with their attention to detail and their knowledge of the process we were able to gain the certificate with flying colours and would recommend their service. Nothing was too much trouble and they provided clear guidance throughout in helping to achieve our accreditation.” Rab McLeod, OCL Regeneration
