Weighbridge Management & Site Security

Ensuring customers have up-to-date access to all data relating to goods inwards, dispatch operations and stock levels, our Weighbridge Technicians manage customers’ in-house databases, enabling them to invoice customers and manage other administrative procedures using accurate information.

This often compliments the site security operations and manning of site entrances where security and vehicle weighing can be combined. Health & safety is a top priority on every site. Visitors and drivers always require induction and briefing on site rules. As part of Esprit's role managing deliveries and controlling access to site, training and compliance to site rules is ensured for all visitors.

24hr Operation & Emergency Response

We tailor-make our service levels to provide staff whenever required, whether this be 24/7, 365 days per year, shift work or opening hours only. We also offer a rapid response service in case of emergency, should an unplanned incident occur such as pipelines blocking, conveyors failing or silo’s getting high level.

Snow Clearance & Gritting

Adverse weather can pose serious problems for manufacturing facilities, not only for delivery vehicles but also staff cars and pedestrians on-site. Esprit provide 24hr cover for snow clearance and gritting ensuring Health & Safety isn’t a concern.

Laboratory Sampling & Testing

Whether it's testing incoming raw materials, finished products ready for dispatch or process products, Esprit laboratory technicians are highly trained to test, record and retain samples of all products specific to individual customer sites.

On-Site Shunting & Bulk Materials Movement

Esprit provide drivers and vehicles for moving goods around site including bulk liquids, powders, grain, feed & packaged goods.

Road Haulage Management

Manufacturers often prefer to deliver their own products rather than asking their customers to arrange collection. This ensures competent deliveries and product quality but isn’t a core part of their operations. Esprit manage this, working with large fleets and smaller hauliers to ensure on-time collection and delivery.

We also provide drivers and management for logistics companies who require a presence on factory sites where they have haulage contracts yet workload doesn’t justify a full-time team. Operating from numerous locations around the country may enhance company distribution channels, but the cost of management and manpower may impinge on profits. Esprit managers combine these and other roles on site to spread management costs over several operations.

Esprit Facilities Management gives a full management support package designed to suit unique requirements.

Services include:

• Contract management
• Driver paperwork and control
• Tachograph records
• Payroll information
• Driver recruitment
