Noise source inventory
Before expanding a facility or planning corrective action, you need to know which sources create its noise. We organise locations, acoustic information and operating patterns into a consistent register for modelling, diagnosis and subsequent noise reduction planning at the site.
Organise source information before assessing the impact
At a complex site, sources may include individual machines, openings, installations and operations linked to working schedules. We identify their locations and functions, apply clear identifiers and connect them with technical information. This creates a consistent reference so that information supplied by different departments can be related to the same elements of the facility.
For key sources, we establish the information needed for the agreed use of the register and perform measurements within the available scope. Operating states, activity durations and parameter origins are documented, distinguishing measured information from supplied data and assumptions. This structure supports modelling and reduces the risk of omitting sources or counting the same equipment twice in later assessments.
An inventory organises available knowledge but does not alone establish which source dominates at a receiver. That may require modelling or a separate contribution analysis. We identify information gaps and entries needing revision after equipment or operating changes, helping the register remain a useful dataset rather than a one-off equipment list.

What you receive
You receive a source register containing input information for its agreed use. Entries cover identification, operating characteristics, available parameters and their origins, together with gaps requiring attention. The organised material can support preparation of a model, a reduction plan or a later update of the facility's acoustic information following technical changes.
