Lucion is a UK technology-led group dedicated to protecting people and the planet through expert risk management and compliance solutions. Through a combination of specialist consultancy, surveying, testing and digital solutions, Lucion supports organisations, including healthcare providers, in managing risk, meeting regulatory requirements and making informed decisions across the asset lifecycle.
Across healthcare estates, maintaining safe water systems is a continuous and often complex responsibility. From acute hospitals to community care settings, estates and facilities teams must manage large volumes of assets, ensure regular monitoring, and respond quickly to potential risks. With increasing regulatory scrutiny and the need for clear audit trails, achieving consistent oversight of legionella risk remains an ongoing challenge.
Within this landscape, greater visibility and accessibility of data are becoming increasingly important. Lucion’s NexGen platform forms part of this shift, providing a digital approach to managing environmental and compliance risks across single sites and multi-site estates. The platform brings together risk assessment data, asset information and compliance activity into a single, accessible system.
A key area of focus is water hygiene management. Through Lucion’s NexGen portal, information from legionella risk assessments is made available as soon as site work is completed, enabling estates teams to review recommendations and asset data without waiting for formal reports. This reduces delays between identification and action, supporting a more responsive approach to risk management.
The system also provides a structured view of compliance performance. Users can track actions by priority, monitor progress across multiple locations and access detailed information on water systems, including storage tanks, outlets and areas where low usage may increase risk. For organisations managing complex estates, this centralised visibility supports more coordinated and informed decision-making.
Alongside this, routine compliance activity can be managed within the platform. Tasks such as monitoring infrequently used outlets are automatically identified, allowing responsible persons to record and manage checks digitally. This helps to improve consistency, strengthen record keeping and reduce reliance on manual processes.
Working in line with recognised guidance, including HSG 274 and BS 8580-1:2019, and supported by Legionella Control Association membership, Lucion ensures that healthcare organisations are supported in meeting regulatory expectations while maintaining high standards of documentation.
Through technical expertise and digital capability, Lucion is helping organisations to take a more informed and consistent approach to water hygiene management, supporting safer environments for patients, staff and visitors.
