Disconnected pre-starts miss critical risks and fail to prove consultation

Pre-start forms are often filled out on paper sheets that get dirty, lost, or sitting in a container office. Worse, they don't dynamically connect to the active SWMS, active permits, or plant maintenance registers of that day.

AxionSite daily pre-starts bring your briefings into the live site workflow. Supervisors link today’s active SWMS and permits, record current site hazards, and let crews sign on via mobile, creating a connected evidence trail.

  4. 4

    4. Publish the pre-start

    Generate a mobile-friendly briefing sheet and site QR code.

  • Direct SWMS and permit linking

    Ensure workers have direct access to the specific approved SWMS and permits governing today's tasks.

    No app installation required — workers scan a QR code at the toolbox area to read and acknowledge the briefing.

  • Stop-work triggers & hazards

    Log weather delays, site faults, or high-risk ground conditions clearly.

  • Connected safety registers

    Automatically feed pre-start data directly into your Site Diary, Action Centre, and Intelligence Centre.
