Rail & infrastructure

Built from the trackside up, not the boardroom down.

Twenty years in rail went into IMS. Shift reports, fatigue, RISQS-aligned compliance, site packs and live commercial tracking for the contractors who keep the network running, on any device, on or off track.

Sound familiar?

It's not a people problem.

Good teams, held back by paperwork that was never built for the railway.

  1. 01

    Shift reports emailed, WhatsApped, texted and dropped in Dropbox, with someone in the office retyping the lot for the client.

  2. 02

    Timesheets on a spreadsheet that one person can edit, with no feed through to payroll.

  3. 03

    Training records spread across folders nobody can find before an audit, and certificates expired before you knew.

  4. 04

    The wrong revision being used on site, and a nonconformity you did not need.

  5. 05

    Delays and frustrated access that cost you money but were never properly captured or claimed back.

Intelligent shift reporting

Claims-ready before the gang leaves site.

Supervisors complete the shift report on a tablet as the work happens. Planned against actual, delays, photos and early warnings go straight into a structured record the commercial team can use the next morning.

  • ✓Early warnings submitted at the end of every shift
  • ✓Photos and time stamps that stand up in a claim
  • ✓Client reports produced automatically, no retyping

Audit-ready, every day

Walk into any audit with nothing to find.

Procedures, training, competence, fatigue and actions live on one dashboard with a full trail behind them, so RISQS, Sentinel, ISO and NICEIC audits become a review rather than a scramble.

  • RISQS-aligned PPE and competence
  • NR/L3/003/OH fatigue managed automatically
  • Sentinel competence and sponsorship
  • Action register: every incident closed out

What our clients say

“The IMS has improved us commercially. It has made us more efficient in the collection of data from shift reports and the ability to generate Early Warnings on site that are submitted at the end of the shift.”

Paul Unwin · LB Foster

“With all our company procedures being controlled and presented on the Dashboard, along with the Action register, has major benefit to us in our ISO, Sentinel and NICEIC audits.”

Greg England · Panasonic ADC
