BS 7121 lift-plan compliance for UK crane + hiab operators. Parts 1/3/4/5/7 clause lookup, AP competence, CPA Contract-Lift vs Hire triage, GBP calc, LOLER scheduling. By MEOK AI Labs.
Why this exists
BS 7121 is the UK lift-planning bible. Five parts most operators reference daily. Plus LOLER, PUWER, CDM 2015, CPCS. Mobile, tower, crawler, lorry-loader — every category has its own triage.
Real UK cases this MCP exists to prevent:
- Brand Energy & Infrastructure Services UK — £1.6m HSE fine (Nov 2024). Jack Phillips (24) killed Eastbourne. Expired sling + missing exclusion zone.
- Baldwins Crane Hire v Vision Modular Systems (ongoing 2026, £951k claim). CPA Condition 9(d) — proves Contract-Lift vs Hire triage at the QUOTE stage is the £100k+ wedge.
This MCP sits ABOVE 3D Lift Plan and Lolerflow — it doesn't simulate; it validates, classifies, and produces audit-quality compliance attestations.

pip install meok-bs7121-mcp

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
