For Councils & Local Authorities

Audit-Ready Compliance Across All Departments

Risk assessment software for local authorities managing parks, buildings, highways, events, and public services. Defensible documentation that meets scrutiny requirements.

Local Authority H&S Challenges

Limited resources, massive responsibility

Shrinking budgets but expanding health and safety obligations. Parks, buildings, highways, events, schools - every department needs risk assessments but H&S teams are stretched thin.

Dozens of sites and activities to cover

Not just office buildings. Playgrounds, sports pitches, car parks, public toilets, libraries, depots, museums, cemeteries - all need proper risk management documentation.

Audit pressure from scrutiny

Councillors, internal audit, HSE inspections, public inquiries - your risk management processes are under constant examination. Generic templates won't survive scrutiny.

Need to prove due diligence if something goes wrong

Corporate manslaughter legislation means council officers and members face personal liability. You need defensible documentation proving systematic risk management.
