GIRS stands for Gas Industry Registration Scheme.
GIRS accreditation is a formal recognition indicating that an organisation is competent to undertake work within the gas industry in the UK. The scheme is overseen by Lloyd’s Register and ensures that work related to the design, construction, connection, and decommissioning of gas infrastructure is carried out by competent entities.
The cost for GIRS accreditation can vary based on factors like the scope of registration, the size of the organisation, and any additional assessments required. It’s recommended to contact Lloyd’s Register directly or consult the GIRS documentation for a detailed fee structure tailored to your specific needs.
To obtain GIRS accreditation: Familiarise yourself with the specific requirements for the GIRS accreditation relevant to the scope of work your organisation deals with. Complete and submit an application to Lloyd’s Register, including details about your organisation, the scope of registration, and associated fees. Undergo an assessment, which may involve audits, inspections, and competency checks. Address any non-conformities identified during the assessment. Once you meet all requirements and pass the assessment, you’ll receive the GIRS accreditation.
While specific requirements can vary depending on the scope of work, general GIRS accreditation requirements include: Demonstrating technical competency in the gas industry, which might include having qualified personnel, necessary equipment, and appropriate procedures. Proving that your organisation has robust health and safety procedures in place. Having a quality management system that aligns with industry standards. Passing audits and assessments carried out by Lloyd’s Register or another accrediting body.
