URN: UKTTE22
Business Sectors (Suites): Tram Engineering
Developed by: UK Tram

Overview

This standard is about handing over responsibility of Tram vehicle assets prior to and following work activities and before the Tram vehicle returns to operational service. It includes identifying the personnel involved in the handover process and confirming and agreeing the condition of the asset prior to undertaking work activities and also following the completion of work activities. You will be able to confirm that the allocated tasks, the required integrity tests and checks and all the necessary documentation have been completed in line with organisational procedures.  This may include the consideration of manufacturer and supplier warranties and contract arrangements.  Upon the handover of a Tram vehicle asset you will be expected to highlight any new, current or changed operating features and equipment.  You will also be able to ensure you receive confirmation that those involved in the handover process accept that the Tram vehicle is in a satisfactory condition.

This standard is for those who work in the Tram engineering environment at supervisor/technician level.
