Technical advice
Engineering expertise on call for the decisions your team faces, given in writing so it can be acted on and audited later.
Engineering consultancy
Engineering advice for facilities that have to stay in service.
Handasa Tech reviews designs, specifications and maintenance records, then gives owners and operators a practical framework for running their buildings: what to record, how to prioritise, and what must be verified before a job is closed.
Services
Independent engineering support, from first review to management reporting.
We work alongside your engineering, operations and quality teams. Our role is advisory: we set out the technical position and the controls, and your authorised people carry out and accept the work.
Design and document review
Review of designs, drawings, plans and specifications before they are built or issued, with clear comments and recommended changes.
Maintenance governance
A defined work-order lifecycle with status definitions, a priority matrix and the minimum evidence required at each stage.
Preventive maintenance planning
An asset hierarchy, criticality ratings and a risk-based task library, so that what breaks today changes what is inspected tomorrow.
Quality assurance and close-out
Quality gates that stop a job being closed until the function is tested, the finishes are reinstated and the evidence is on record.
Project support
Technical meetings, remote or in person, and consultation through delivery for the project teams who need an engineer in the room.
Method
Every defect follows the same seven stages.
A plumbing leak is not resolved when the water stops if the ceiling, the paint and the root cause are still outstanding. We test each record against a complete lifecycle, and each stage has evidence it must leave behind.
-
Identify
Log the defect and make it safe. Unique ID, exact location, asset, first photograph.
-
Assess
Confirm discipline, consequence and urgency. Record the reason for the priority.
-
Plan
Method, competency, spares, permits and isolation, with a target completion.
-
Execute
Carry out the authorised repair. Record parts, readings and any deviation.
-
Verify
Test the function and inspect the workmanship, checked by someone independent.
-
Close
Close only when linked tasks pass, with final cause, remedy and acceptance.
-
Learn
Spot repeat failures and update the preventive tasks, frequencies and spares.
Controls
Closed should mean verified, and the numbers should prove it.
We leave your team with gates that are checked before a work order moves on, and a short set of measures that management can read each month.
Quality gates
One question at each gate, answered with evidence.
- Record completeness
- Is the exact asset, location, failure and priority clear?
- Technical readiness
- Is the work method safe, competent and resourced?
- Workmanship
- Does the repair meet the technical and finishing standard?
- Functional restoration
- Does the system perform its intended function?
- Complete reinstatement
- Have ceilings, finishes and access panels been restored?
- Learning
- Does the defect point to a recurring or systemic cause?
Performance measures
Defined once, calculated the same way at every site.
- PM on-time compliance
- Preventive work orders completed by their due date.
- Response compliance
- Corrective jobs attended within the priority target.
- Restoration compliance
- Function restored within target, not only attended.
- First-time fix rate
- Jobs closed without reopening or repeat occurrence.
- Verified closure rate
- Closed jobs with complete technical and quality evidence.
- Backlog ageing
- Open work orders grouped by priority and age band.
Engagement
A working framework inside 90 days.
We start from the records and documents you already have. The output is a written engineering deliverable with a prioritised plan, sized so it can be standardised across a multi-site portfolio.
Days 0 to 30
Baseline
Review forms, registers and close-out evidence. Agree status definitions, the priority matrix and mandatory fields. Clean the active backlog.
Days 31 to 60
Standardise
Issue the revised work-order form and closure checklist. Brief supervisors and discipline leads. Link open and closed jobs to the asset hierarchy.
Days 61 to 90
Sustain
Review repeat failures and update preventive tasks. Launch a monthly management review of trends, backlog, service levels and quality findings.
