Clear data. Expert support.
Whether you are preparing for demolition, managing an active construction site or investigating a concern, our expert team helps you understand what needs to be measured, where to monitor and how the results will be used.
We provide short-term surveys and continuous monitoring, with calibrated equipment, secure online access and reporting tailored to your requirements. Monitoring can cover noise, vibration or both, with coverage adapted as your site’s activities and risk profile change.
Record existing conditions before the relevant activity begins, where a baseline is needed for your project or investigation.
Access received readings online and configure email or SMS alerts around agreed criteria and responsibilities.
Use clear reporting and specialist interpretation to support site decisions, stakeholder discussions and investigations.
Monitoring services
Understand sound levels around your site and nearby sensitive locations. We agree suitable monitoring positions, measurement periods and reporting requirements around the activity and purpose of the assessment.
Noise monitoring can support baseline surveys, construction management, planning requirements, industrial investigations and the review of complaints.
Measure vibration associated with activities such as piling, demolition, excavation and plant operation. We select monitoring positions and measurement settings around the buildings, structures or sensitive equipment being considered.
Vibration monitoring can support construction management, party wall investigations and the review of concerns about neighbouring works.
Where both disciplines are required, we coordinate the monitoring arrangements so your team can review noise and vibration alongside the site activity record.
Requirements & investigations
Our team understands that monitoring may be driven by a project condition, a forthcoming work phase or a concern that needs investigating. We shape the service around the questions you need to answer.
Plan monitoring around the activities, nearby receptors and changing phases of work. Agree any baseline requirements before the relevant works begin and review coverage as the programme develops.
Support planning conditions, construction management plans and Section 61 applications through appropriate noise and vibration monitoring. We review the relevant documents and agree the criteria, reporting and alert arrangements required.
Targeted vibration monitoring to support surveyors and project specialists investigating the effects of nearby works. Where structural movement also needs monitoring, we can coordinate an appropriate additional scope.
Specialist monitoring, investigation and technical reporting to support clients and their advisers. We agree the intended use of the findings at the outset so the monitoring addresses the questions and evidence required.
We also scope monitoring for industrial operations, events and other specialist environments. Tell us about the activity, location and purpose so we can advise on the appropriate approach.
Measurements that matter
A useful monitoring record needs the right measurement settings and context. Our team confirms the parameters, time periods, monitoring positions and criteria for your project.
Online access & reporting
KPM Monitoring provides secure online access to received readings, with configured alerts and reporting to help your team follow site conditions and investigate events.
View the parameters and time periods relevant to your site, with access arranged for the people who need to use the data.
Agree trigger criteria, recipients and escalation responsibilities so notifications reach the people responsible for investigating.
Weekly, monthly or project-specific reporting can be agreed, with specialist review and interpretation included where required.
Measurement frequency and data transmission are different settings. Online updates and notification timing depend on the equipment configuration and connectivity; we confirm these arrangements during scoping.
Our approach
Our expert team reviews your site, programme, proposed activities and relevant conditions or specifications. We discuss sensitive locations and the decisions your monitoring needs to support.
Confirm suitable positions, access, mounting, power and communications, including an initial site visit where appropriate. Agree the monitoring scope and coordinate with relevant stakeholders.
Install calibrated equipment, check the configuration, establish platform access and set up the agreed monitoring and notification arrangements.
Provide equipment servicing, calibration checks and calibration arrangements, alongside the agreed data review and reporting. Adjust coverage as site activities and risk profiles change.

Practical questions
That depends on the activities, nearby sensitive locations and project requirements. Noise and vibration address different effects. Our team will review your brief and recommend the appropriate combination and coverage.
There is no single number suitable for every site. We consider the site layout, work phases, nearby receptors, monitoring objectives and any specified positions before agreeing the equipment and locations.
Where a baseline or existing-condition record is required, monitoring should begin before the relevant activity. We agree the duration and locations around your project’s requirements and programme.
Yes. Share the application, consent conditions or relevant project documents. Our team can help define appropriate noise and vibration monitoring, reporting and alert arrangements alongside the wider construction management requirements.
Configured notifications are sent according to the agreed settings and connectivity. Your responsible team should investigate the event, review the work taking place and follow the agreed response procedure. We can provide specialist review at the level included in your scope.
An alert alone does not establish damage or its cause. It identifies a measurement for investigation. Interpretation depends on the recorded event, monitoring position, criteria and wider evidence, with surveyor or structural engineering input where appropriate.
Yes. We can scope targeted monitoring and technical review to investigate a concern. Tell us about the reported effects, timing, suspected activity and intended use of the findings so we can agree an appropriate approach.
We provide servicing, calibration checks and calibration arrangements appropriate to the equipment and agreed service. Access, maintenance responsibilities and reporting arrangements are confirmed in your scope.
Where suitable mains power is unavailable, we can assess an off-grid solution. Tell us about the proposed location, access and available power so we can review suitable equipment and installation arrangements.
No. Monitoring is provided on a rolling weekly rate, so you can use the service for as long or as short a period as you need. We work with you to adjust coverage, extend the service or arrange removal when monitoring is no longer required.
