ADVISORY

Reviewer notes — advisory items to resolve before issue

2 notes
COSHH — SDS not yet attached (Stage 4, Check 01). The intumescent sealant and fire-stopping mortar products have been identified and COSHH controls are documented in the RAMS body. However, the SDS documents themselves have not been appended to the pack. The SDS for both products must be attached before the RAMS is issued. Recommended action: obtain SDS from manufacturer, attach to Output 06 (COSHH Index), re-check, re-issue.
Evidence Pack — photo record format not confirmed (Stage 5, Check 02). The Evidence Pack Checklist (Output 10) lists a photographic record as a required evidence item but does not specify the format, naming convention or storage location. This should be agreed with the client or site representative before works commence to avoid disputes at handover. Recommended action: confirm photo record format and add to Output 10 before issue.
Competent-person review

QA reviewer sign-off

I have reviewed the RAMS pack for the above project against all 28 QA checklist items. The pack achieves 25 pass and 3 advisory on this review. No fails were identified. The two advisory notes must be resolved and the pack re-confirmed before formal issue and reliance.

This QA review does not replace or constitute final H&S approval. Final issue authority and duty-holder responsibility remain with the client's competent person.

Client approval — for issue

Final approval for issue

I confirm that I am the competent person responsible for approving this RAMS for issue. I have reviewed the pack, the QA checklist and the reviewer notes. I confirm that the advisory items have been resolved to my satisfaction and this RAMS is approved for issue and reliance.

Issue authority remains with the named approver. Built AI does not hold duty-holder responsibility for final RAMS approval.
