Introducing our SWMS Builder for Construction Professionals

We’re absolutely pumped to have launched our innovative Safe Work Method Statement Builder (SWMS Builder)!

The SWMS Builder is designed to enhance workplace safety and boost productivity, providing construction professionals with customisable SWMS templates developed in collaboration with industry that help raise site compliance standards.

In even better news, to celebrate the launch of our SWMS Builder, we’re running a special free trial allowing tradespeople to try the platform out for four-weeks.

Before digital resources like our SWMS Builder, workers were required to write a new SWMS from scratch for each job (or use a highly generic one), export a signable PDF version, then send it to the relevant parties for review and approval.

If any updates were needed, they would have to repeat this process again, which could take several hours. Who’s got time for that, seriously?

This is exactly the issue our SWMS Builder seeks to address, which is a response to the very simple question posed by our development team…

‘How can we streamline important site safety tasks to put more time back into a busy tradespersons’ day?’

The solution is simple – provide trades with customisable SWMS templates that are easy to update on mobile devices, more visually engaging and democratise access to key information through a collaborative digital portal.

This makes the platform a great companion for self-employed sole traders, as well as growing small and medium-size businesses with multiple jobs on the go that need a central hub to authorise external contractors to work on their projects.

Over our six-months conducting research and developing the SWMS Builder, we provided our friends at Coy’s Constructions with an opportunity to test the product before it launched.

During a recent catch up with Thomas Coy, Director at Coy’s Constructions, he had this to say about our SWMS Builder and how it has helped their business.

“As our nimble team grows, we need to be on the look-out for ways to boost efficiencies and improve important administrative processes for staff and third-party suppliers. And a lot of this improvement is being enabled through digitisation.”

“The time-saving benefits of using the SWMS Builder were instantly noticeable. Because the application is optimised for mobile devices, our team can make real-time changes to their SWMSs while on-site, instead of returning to the office or needing their laptop to manage adjustments.

“All critical information needed for creating a SWMS is stored online in a collaborative hub, which any stakeholder can access. This is a real bonus because it is more sustainable than our previous process and reduces the risk of key documentation from getting lost.”

Supporting digital transformation in the construction industry is part of BuildPass’ DNA. And it’s a key reason why we’re providing the industry with a free trial of the SWMS Builder.
