The Challenge
Managing Legionella compliance across industrial and manufacturing environments requires an understanding of how water systems interact with day-to-day operations, site infrastructure and changing patterns of water use.
BMI Group's facilities present a range of water safety considerations, from domestic hot and cold water services to operational water systems and environmental sampling requirements.
Each location has its own infrastructure, operational activities, water use patterns and associated risks. Effective management therefore requires more than routine compliance checks. It depends on identifying site-specific risks, maintaining appropriate control measures and ensuring monitoring and sampling activities provide meaningful evidence of water safety.
River water sampling adds a further environmental monitoring requirement, supporting the assessment of water quality beyond the buildings themselves.
Manufacturing facilities contain different water systems, operating conditions and potential areas of Legionella risk.
Varied Industrial Water Systems
Risk assessments, control measures, monitoring records and technical recommendations must remain appropriate to each site's operational requirements.
Consistent Compliance Management
River water sampling forms part of the wider water quality programme, requiring appropriate sampling, analysis and interpretation of results.
Environmental Water Sampling
The Solution
LCS provides BMI Group with specialist Legionella consultancy and water hygiene services tailored to the operational requirements of its industrial and manufacturing sites.
The approach begins with understanding the water systems present at each location, identifying potential risks and establishing the appropriate monitoring, sampling and control requirements.
Legionella Risk Assessments provide the foundation for managing water safety, identifying assets, system characteristics, potential hazards and the measures needed to control risk.
LCS supports the ongoing programme through water hygiene monitoring, technical guidance and sampling services, helping BMI Group maintain oversight of its water systems and respond appropriately to identified issues.
Alongside building water systems, LCS undertakes river water sampling, extending the scope of water quality assessment to relevant environmental water sources.
This combined approach brings together practical site knowledge, specialist water hygiene expertise and analytical evidence to support informed water safety management.
LCS Risk Assessments and site surveys identify assets, risks and the required control measures.
1
Assess & Structure
Legionella Watch is designed around each site to provide ongoing remote monitoring.
2
Monitor Continuously
Monitoring data feeds into Legionella Dossier alongside tasks, records, recommendations and compliance.
3
Connect & Manage
6 locations | 60 sensors | 125 monitoring streams | 1 connected compliance environment
Connecting Monitoring with
Compliance
Legionella Watch data from the BMI Group sites is sent directly into LegionellaDossier via API, bringing remote monitoring into the wider compliance environment.
Alongside monitoring data, BMI Group can manage Risk Assessments, control measures, scheduled tasks, technical recommendations, sampling information and supporting compliance records across its locations.
This creates a more connected view of water safety activity across the estate.
Results &
Impact
Across the five Blue Cross locations, Risk Assessment information, assets, control measures, monitoring data and ongoing compliance activity now form part of one connected water safety process.
The combined approach reduces reliance on disconnected spreadsheets, paper records and manual transfer of monitoring information, while creating a clearer audit trail of the measures being taken to manage water safety.
With remote monitoring, compliance records and ongoing tasks brought together, Blue Cross has greater visibility of water-system performance and can identify exceptions and supporting information more easily across its locations.
Manufacturing and industrial facilities require water safety programmes that reflect the complexity of their systems, operational activities and environmental responsibilities.
LCS combines specialist Legionella expertise, practical water hygiene management and environmental sampling services to help organisations understand their water systems, identify risks and maintain effective control measures.
