The Real Cost of Gas Module Training

In a response to a request from our Landlord to reduce the amount of visible smoke produced on our site, we removed our real fire training gas prop and module (Alpha) and replaced them with dual burn gas props and a module in 2020. This project will review the real cost of this change, including but not limited to the following:

• Cost of training; materials, staff resources, repairs and servicing
• Pricing structure, are fire courses using the module/props priced correctly
• Reputation; less realistic training, perception of quality of training
• Risk; not meeting the awarding body standard, changes to the awarding body standard, an offshore incident, loss of sales.

Undertaking this project will give exposure to a number of business challenges that we face at present, namely; spiralling costs, meeting a ‘green’ agenda, quality and perception of training without using real fire.  By using SWOT analysis it will enable the individual to consider how associated risks can be identified and mitigated.

The project will need to breakdown items and processes to create a cost model to provide an accurate view of usage to enable the business to consider future options.
