Observation of animals
Through on site CCTV
If a CCTV system is in place on site of the business or company, and I get access to it, I can observe the animals and / or the employees. Based on my observations I can provide advice on how to improve production or suggest changes in work habits / protocols.
This service is beneficial, because work can commence as soon as I get access to the system. It is cost effective and a solution can be found faster for the problem, as making travel arrangements and the travel itself takes a lot of time, which is a luxury to have in serious situations. Thus it can be an alternative to the consulting on site.
This service is limited only to those companies (potentially with more than 500 birds) or hatcheries that have a CCTV system on site, however I recommend it to those companies that may have several different sites for production. This service is also recommended, as a monitoring tool, to long-term collaborators.
Firstly, a short consultation is needed to discuss the possible problems and the particular time frames, when the observation should be carried out. Then I will make the observations and take notes regarding the apparent problems and their possible solutions. Finally, I will provide a written document about the observations and suggested solutions. During the work I will be charging an hourly fee and I will provide a receipt in the end.
In case of long-term collaboration, I may observe activities in regular intervals (e.g. every week, fortnight or month) to check that production standards are maintained and / or to warn if problems arise.
