Features of the Digital Asbestos Register
One of the key features of the Octfolio Asbestos Management Software is the digital asbestos register. Too often clients pay thousands of dollars for an asbestos inspection, and then upon completion of the asbestos inspection, the asbestos register and accompanying asbestos management plan is presented as an Adobe PDF file. Or even worse, the asbestos register is presented as a printed document. These documents often get thrown on the shelf somewhere or lost in a file server never to be seen again. It is important to remember that the asbestos register is an important document that helps keep your staff, contractors and visitors safe.
