The ASCP Safety and Compliance Awards reward those outstanding individuals and organisations who go the extra mile to ensure safe and compliant working practices to safeguard tenants, staff and property, finding new or innovative ways to improve living environments and communities.

Claire Heyes, Chief Executive of the Association of Safety and Compliance Professionals (ASCP) said: “We received a record number of high-quality entries for this years’ awards and the judges certainly had their work cut out! It is an incredible achievement to win one of these awards, so congratulations go to all the finalists in this category, but to ECS for their well-deserved win. They have demonstrated outstanding commitment to their electrical safety work in the social housing sector, engaging with staff and tenants to maintain and improve standards.”

ECS Managing Director, Peter McGowan said “We are absolutely delighted to win such a prestigious award and to be recognised for the work we do within the social housing sector, keeping tenants safe in their homes.”

He went on to say, “Electrical safety and compliance are under the radar, more than ever before. At ECS we recognise the importance of delivering a service that provides consistent, robust and accurate inspection processes for our clients. We do this by bringing compliance and the technology together, to process and precisely manage large volumes of electrical inspections repairs and installations, with minimal disruption and maximum cost efficiency.”

ECS use the latest digital technology and software systems to capture valuable and useful real-time data – reports, conditions, observations – giving facilities managers, property managers and asset managers the information they need to plan better, save costs, and make better decisions.

The ASCP awards ceremony, a highlight of the 2-day annual Safety and Compliance Conference and Exhibition, was hosted recently at Celtic Manor, Newport.
