Building & Infrastructure Industry Trainings

The buildings and infrastructure industry includes countless important businesses and specifications. With challenges like safety and efficiency, companies within this sector might be looking for areas to implement changes and improvements. Getting ISO-certified can offer a solution to these companies, helping to ensure better processes across several applications.

ABOUT

The buildings and infrastructure sector is responsible for constructing and maintaining societal structures essential for business and daily life. There are many different types of companies within this sector, each with unique specifications, including construction, electricity, plumbing and road building.

This sector is responsible for building the necessary structural and transportation means we use every day, from our homes to the roads we drive on to our places of work. Because these businesses are responsible for so many public spaces and large-scale projects, they need to adhere to specific and thorough standards to ensure public safety and protect businesses.

CHALLENGES

  • Managing safety: Construction sites often come with various risks to employees, from large, high-powered equipment that requires specialized training to structural dangers, like heights and tight spaces that can injure employees. Employers and companies have to be vigilant to protect their employees and other people who visit sites.

  • Implementing sustainability: While many organizations support and award sustainability efforts, construction companies may not apply these efforts to all projects, including commercial buildings. Further, some greener steps may require extra funding that companies may not have, making it challenging for construction businesses to use more sustainable habits on site.

  • Maintaining efficiency: Many construction teams work hard to develop a schedule or timeline for their projects. However, because many unpredictable elements can temporarily stop work, it can be challenging to establish efficient habits to create accurate timelines or make up for lost time.
