Crane & High-Risk Lift Monitoring
the evidence system fixed/PTZ cameras positioned to provide real-time visibility of crane operations and high-risk lift zones, allowing remote monitoring of exclusion zone clearance and lift compliance.

Trigger, activity, conclusion
Crane mobilised and scheduled lifts programmed; or specific high-risk/complex lift requiring method statement/appointed person — requiring remote visibility and recording capability.
Using the evidence system cameras to monitor crane lift operations in real time, verifying exclusion zone clearance and capturing a continuous timestamped video record.
Lift operation completed safely with full video record retained. Footage immediately available for investigation in event of incident/near-miss.
Workflow steps
- Step 01
Lift plan and method statement prepared by appointed person.
Inferred - Step 02
Pre-lift toolbox talk conducted with relevant personnel.
Inferred - Step 03
the evidence system camera positions reviewed to confirm lift zone/exclusion area coverage.
Inferred - Step 04
Prior to lift, site manager accesses the evidence system live view to confirm exclusion zone is clear.
Evidenced - Step 05
Lift proceeds under appointed person/crane operator direction with the evidence system remote visibility.
Evidenced - Step 06
the evidence system records full lift with timestamps — load attachment, path, placement, release.
Evidenced - Step 07
For complex/critical lifts, designated team monitors live feed and can issue stop instruction.
Inferred - Step 08
Post-lift, footage reviewed to confirm operation proceeded per method statement.
Inferred - Step 09
In event of incident/near-miss, footage immediately preserved and incident investigation initiated.
Evidenced - Step 10
Lift records — method statement, toolbox talk, preserved footage reference — archived in safety file.
Inferred
Evidence records
the evidence system cameras used to monitor crane lift operations in real time, providing site management with remote visibility of lift zone activity and capturing a continuous timestamped record of all crane movements — footage subsequently used to review post-lift compliance with the method statement and to demonstrate safe working practices to the client.
Avoided dispute with council about use of crane after hours.
Under HSE Guidance L113 (Safe Use of Lifting Equipment), all lifting operations must be properly planned, appropriately supervised, and carried out in a safe manner — the the evidence system monitoring record provides contemporaneous evidence that supervision was in place for the duration of the operation.
ROI model
risk reduction
Low-probability, high-consequence events whose expected cost is reduced by Evercam's monitoring, deterrence, or evidence capability. Calculated as expected value (probability × cost). Presented separately from operational savings in the output document under 'Risk Mitigation Value'.
annual_risk_without = event_probability × event_cost; annual_risk_with = (event_probability × (1 - probability_reduction_pct)) × (event_cost × (1 - cost_mitigation_pct)); saving = (annual_risk_without - annual_risk_with) × (project_duration_months / 12)
