Safety compliance across every plant, line and machine.

Health and safety software for UK manufacturers. Induct everyone to the plant, sign off the RAMS before the job starts, run your inspections and audits from a phone, report incidents as they happen, and keep every machine's records in one place — across every plant, with no per-site charge.

The platform

Everything a plant team needs on every site

Five jobs, one connected record: induct everyone to the plant, sign off the RAMS, run the inspections and audits, report what goes wrong, and keep every machine's history.

Site inductions

Plant-specific inductions, done before they reach the floor

Each plant gets its own induction — machine guarding and interlocks, isolation and permit-to-work rules, lift truck and pedestrian routes, hearing protection zones, hazardous substances and hygiene or allergen areas, plus the live risk register for that address. New staff, contractors and visitors complete it on their phone, acknowledge the risks, and you keep the record with its expiry.

  • A different induction per plant, reusable across the business
  • Add a quiz, a video or a signature, and set how often it renews
  • Sign-in blocked when someone's induction has lapsed

RAMS

A method statement the crew actually signs

Build a risk assessment and method statement from your own template, pull the hazards and controls straight from the plant risk register, and send it to the crew to review and sign on their phone before the job starts. Shutdowns, hot work, confined space and machine changeovers each keep their own document, version and signatures.

  • Step-by-step tasks with hazards, controls and residual risk
  • Digital sign-off by staff and contractors, with every version kept
  • Reusable templates for the jobs you do on every shutdown
Inspections & audits

Retire the clipboard on the plant floor

Build the checks you already do — machine pre-use checks and guarding checks, lift truck checks, hazardous substances storage, plant walk-arounds, housekeeping and internal audits — as digital forms on a recurring schedule. Answer on a phone, attach a photo, and raise a corrective action against the question that failed.

  • Every check linked back to the plant and the asset for your records
  • A failed check tags the machine out and notifies the supervisor
  • Recurring schedules for shift, weekly and quarterly inspections

Incident reporting

Report it from the floor, not from a filing cabinet

Anyone on site can log an incident, injury or near miss in a couple of minutes on their phone, with photos. It lands with the right person, gets assessed against RIDDOR reporting criteria, and moves through investigation, corrective actions and sign-off in one record — so nothing sits in a drawer until the audit.

  • Near misses and hazards reported as easily as injuries
  • Investigation, root cause and corrective actions on one record
  • Trends by plant, area and machine so repeats get designed out
Asset management

Every machine's history in one register

Hold your plant and machinery in one register — machines and lines, lift trucks and MHE, pressure vessels, extraction and test equipment — each with its serial number, certificates, thorough examination and service history, and next due date. Scan the QR label on the machine to check it, see its record, or tag it out.

  • LOLER thorough examinations and calibrations tracked with expiry reminders
  • Inspections, faults and corrective actions kept against the asset
  • Out-of-service machines clearly flagged to everyone on shift

The evidence the HSE expects

As an employer you have to show what you did, not just what you intended. SiteConnect keeps the record — who was inducted, which RAMS was signed, what the inspections found, what happened after an incident, and what condition your plant is in.

Used by more than 500 organisations across the country.

HSWA 1974 & MHSWR
Inductions, RAMS sign-off and worker engagement recorded per plant.
Plant & machinery evidence
Pre-use checks, PUWER and LOLER records, and actions kept per asset.
RIDDOR reporting
Incidents assessed against RIDDOR, investigated and signed off with photos and actions.
Audit-ready export
Export a plant's compliance history to PDF when an auditor or insurer asks.
Why manufacturing teams choose us

Every plant, every contractor, one flat price

Most safety systems punish you for having more than one plant and charge for every contractor you link. We don't — so the tool scales with your operation and your shutdown crews instead of your budget.

No charge per site

Add every plant, workshop and warehouse you run — 2 or 20 — without the licence cost climbing. New line or site next month? Set it up in an afternoon.

Free for contractors

Maintenance contractors, electricians and service techs get their own free account to induct, sign the RAMS and upload certificates. Nothing to buy means no pushback.

Built for lean safety teams

One dashboard across every plant, with reminders doing the chasing. One safety lead can hold compliance for several sites, a shutdown and a shifting casual workforce.

See it on your own plant

Half an hour, no obligation. We'll set up one of your plants on the call so you can see exactly how inductions, RAMS, inspections, incidents and your asset register fit together.

Every plant in one place

"We run three plants and a workshop with one safety lead. Adding a site without a new licence changed how we work."

RAMS signed before the job

"Shutdown crews read and sign the method statement on their phones. No more chasing paper on the morning of the job."

Near misses actually get logged

"Reporting takes two minutes on a phone, so we hear about things early — and the corrective actions don't get forgotten."

Frequently asked questions

Do you charge per plant or per site?

No. Add as many plants, workshops and warehouses as you operate without a per-site fee, so bringing a second factory on costs you setup time and nothing else.

Can each plant have its own induction, hazards and forms?

Yes. Each plant has its own induction, risk register, noticeboard and inspection schedule, while RAMS and form templates are shared across the business so you only build them once.

Can we build our own RAMS in SiteConnect?

Yes. Build a risk assessment and method statement from your own template, pull hazards and controls straight from the plant risk register, and have the crew sign it on their phone before the job starts. Every version is kept, so you can show which one was signed.

How do inspections and audits work on the plant floor?

Build the checks you already do as digital forms — machine pre-use checks, guarding checks, hazardous substances storage, housekeeping and internal audits — and put them on a recurring schedule. Answer on a phone, attach a photo, and a failed answer raises a corrective action against the asset and notifies the supervisor.

Can we manage our contractors in the same system?

Yes. Prequalify the contractors who work on your plant, collect their insurances, trade certificates and competencies with automatic expiry reminders, and keep an approved list. Contractors get a free account, so they induct, sign RAMS and sign in without paying anything.

Can we run toolbox talks through SiteConnect?

Yes. Pick a topic or use your own, run the talk on the floor, and record who attended with their sign-off. Attendance and notes stay against the plant, so pre-shift and pre-shutdown briefings are easy to show later.

Does it cover RIDDOR reporting and investigations?

Yes. Anyone on site can report an incident, injury or near miss from the app with photos. It's triaged, flagged if it looks reportable to the HSE under RIDDOR, and taken through investigation, corrective actions and sign-off in one record.

Can we keep our plant and machinery register in it?

Yes. Hold every machine, lift truck and pressure vessel in the asset register with its serial number, certificates, thorough examination and service history, and next due dates. A failed check tags the asset out and shows on its record.
