Is pre relocation survey important for Industries?

The definite answer is yes. Without proper knowledge and information, industrial relocation in Dubai may run into unexpected roadblocks that could cost us time, money and reputation. 

Information is a very valuable resource without which we cannot create models to predict bottlenecks. 

Those who have attempted in such endeavors without conducting the proper survey are known to pay the price dearly. A pre relocation survey is considered as the foundation for a healthy relocation process.

 

Purpose of Industrial Relocation Survey

Identifying purpose is also important while collecting information. It will help us locate nodes of possible failures and in assessing the risk factor while attempting industrial relocation in Dubai.

Scope of Industrial Relocation Survey in Dubai

Understanding targets

The industrial relocation process is more than picking an item from location A and unloading it on location B. After the initial survey, we should have a brief outline of the work involved in the relocation process we intend to perform.

The initial survey mostly has information about the nature of business and the industry involved, a physical address of location A and location B which are the start and endpoints, a general idea of the volume for transit, etc is collected

Technical details, size, and type of materials, etc are kept for later survey while attempting an industrial relocation in Dubai. 

Responsibilities

When the survey is performed properly, we will be able to generate information that will help in the proper assigning of sub-projects. We will be able to know what to assign to whom. A part of the work normally falls as the client’s responsibility whereas some of them are specific for the professionals in Industrial relocation in Dubai. 

Then there are tasks that need to be attended by the third party either because it is cost-effective or because of the highly technical nature of the job. 

List of machinery

In this part, we focus on preparing a list of all machinery and related equipment that are functioning at the moment and need to be replanted. 

Location

This part of the survey focuses on the machinery. Their location, department of control, and networking with other subsystems. More data is collected in further surveys on how to recreate this ecosystem at the new location without deviating from the regular process. 

The list adds more details in further surveys about the induction process requirement, any associated first-aid arrangements necessary, security gate or other similar protection methods required, a requirement for personal protection equipment or access to lifts, etc.

Other data include 

Contractor presence on the worksiteAny certifications required at the new worksiteLifting equipmentVehicle restrictionsWorking restrictionsWork permitsPossible safety hazards

Transit challenges

In this part of the survey, we break down the movement of machinery into data for intermittent processes. Like moving from one section to another in the old premises, distance to the loading area, chemical hazards, floor protection, and seasoning.
