6 Alpha was established in 2004 by current Managing Director, Simon Cooke
Initially based in Hertfordshire, the company comprises a number of market-leading specialists, including former Royal Engineer Bomb Disposal Officers, Royal Navy Clearance Divers and Explosives Engineers all working together to offer world-class risk management services.
Following a rigorous selection process, 6 Alpha was selected by the Construction Industry Research and Information Association (CIRIA) to write the UK’s first Health and Safety Executive (HSE) endorsed publication concerning the management of UXO risk. Published in 2009, the guide for managing UXO risk in the construction industry (CIRIA C681) has become the de facto standard for those clients fulfilling thier legal duty under CDM Regulations. In 2015, 6 Alpha was approached and selected again to write the equivalent guide for the marine environment (CIRIA C754).
Launching its own Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Contracting Division in 2016 due to an increased demand from clients, 6 Alpha now offers an holistic solution for managing and mitigating UXO risk from desktop reporting, to data processing, on site services and, most recently, EOD Disposal works.
