Advice and Solutions

From large capital works with clearly defined project stages, to minor jobs where stages blend into one, Atomic DG makes things easier for clients, and delivers safer DG outcomes.

Project Appraise Stage

  • Is there a need for a new DG or explosives store?
  • Does an existing system need modifying or upgrading?
  • What are the aims and performance outcomes of the project?

Atomic DG listens to clients during the Appraise Stage to help refine their project aims and needs, identify project risk, and present alternatives.  We bring clarity and a clear vision of where the project is headed.

Select Stage

  • What options are available to achieve the project aims?
  • After considering cost, procurement lead time, and other factors, what is the preferred solution?

During the Select Stage, clients are searching for ways to solve their DG problem, with minimal cost and time.  With our experience in industries as varied as waste management, food & beverage processing, refrigerated logistics, educational institutions, pharmaceutical, Government utilities, mining and offshore, we quickly find solutions that work.

Define Stage

  • The project team develops the preferred solution into a detailed design, along with drawings, budgets, project schedules, and other deliverables.
  • If required, a DG or explosives licence is applied for.
  • For unusual DG systems, a first principles risk assessment is required.

The Define Stage is where Atomic DG adds most value; proposals are checked for compliance with DG Regulations and Standards, and where required, licences are applied for.  Atomic DG also facilitates first principle risk assessment stakeholder meetings, and provides risk assessment worksheets and meeting reports as a deliverable.

Execute Stage

  • The new store or upgrade/modification is installed and commissioned.
  • For high risk DG systems, a post commissioning inspection by Atomic is recommended.

By engaging Atomic DG during the Select and Define stages of a project, proposals can be checked for compliance with DG Regulations and Australian Standards before any construction costs are incurred.

For clients seeking greater knowledge and understanding of DG compliance, Atomic DG provides a constant source of technical advice, an idea sounding board, and we can even coach interested clients in performing their own DG assessments.
