An OPOS is a document required in California by California GISO Title 8, Para 3282, that provides guidelines for the window cleaners and exterior maintenance procedures that includes pictorial and written form information.
An OPOS includes, (1) identification of drop zones and rigging, i.e.: recommended drop sequences, ground and roof rigging. (2) Identification of all anchorage points for personal fall protection and maintenance. (3) A description of the means and methods to be used to transfer equipment from drop location to drop location or between building levels. (4) Identification of equipment limitations and load ratings. (5) Identification of the access and egress to the work locations. (6) The storage area(s) for the permanent or transportable building maintenance equipment. (7) If applicable, indication of the location and method of stabilization provided for the suspended equipment. (8) Emergency and rescue procedures and means of communications to be used during such procedures.
While project requirements in other states or countries may require an OPOS, there is no formal standards or regulations for writing OPOS other than what may be required in the project specifications.
