Edp

EDP deliver health and safety services to Universal Music Group (UMG) - the world's leading music company operating from over 20 sites in the UK, including the world famous Abbey Road Studios, and in 60 countries under brands such as Virgin, Polydor, Capitol and EMI. The relationships started in 2010 when EDP was asked to undertake a review of the Health, Safety and Environmental Management Systems in place at the London portfolio of EMI Music (a division of UMG). During this initial engagement, EDP was able to demonstrate the value of a trusted advisor on health and safety issues within real estate management, contractor management and undertaking specific risk assessments at events, which ranged from staff parties through to the hosting of significant music industry events such as concerts and award ceremonies. UMG required EDP to ensure all the company's health and safety policy and arrangements were up to date and that UMG's property team was effective in safety management. EDP developed a strategy and service delivery model that evolved over time. From working for a UMG subsidiary company, EDP is now employed on a service provider basis by the UMG parent company, to give expert advice to the business across all of the company's commercial activities.
