The hidden cost of Word-doc RAMS
Your H&S manager spends half the week re-writing generic RAMS templates for each new site. The output looks the same every time — because it is. Generic RAMS do not stand up at an HSE inspection, and they do not protect your people.
8 hours+
Typical time to produce one site-specific RAMS on paper
HSE carried out 10,659 construction site inspections in 2023/24 and issued 4,207 enforcement notices. A non-compliant RAMS is the single most common trigger for a Prohibition Notice — and a Prohibition Notice stops the job that day.
4,207
HSE enforcement notices in construction, 2023/24
Your subcontractors send in RAMS in seven different Word, PDF and scanned formats — and half the signatures are missing. When HSE asks for proof that an operative was briefed, the paper trail is usually nowhere to be found.

The solution
How Chime removes the RAMS bottleneck
Every feature shown here is live on the platform today and used by UK construction firms producing thousands of RAMS a week.
The problem
Generic RAMS templates get rejected. Every new site means starting again — different hazards, different access, different trades. Your H&S team are editing Word docs all week.
Site-specific RAMS in 15 minutes, not 8 hours
Start from an IOSH-approved template library built for UK construction. Drop in the site, activity and trades. The system pulls through the right hazards, controls and PPE — and flags anything missing before you publish. Your H&S manager reviews and approves; they no longer write from scratch.
“We replaced 11 different Word templates with one library. Our H&S advisor got three days a week of her life back.”

The problem
Paper briefings get signed at 6:45am in the rain, photographed, and filed in a folder nobody opens again. Half the signatures are illegible. An auditor asks for proof and you cannot produce it.
Every operative signs on their phone — with a photo
Push the RAMS to the operative on the Chime app. They read it, sign it with their finger, and we capture the photo, GPS location and timestamp. No paper, no lost sheets. If someone is not signed off, they cannot clock in to the site.
“We know exactly who has read each RAMS on each site. If you have not signed, you are not on site. Simple as that.”
— Operations Director, civils contractor
The problem
HSE turn up unannounced. You have 20 minutes to pull the RAMS for the activity, the sign-off sheet, and the revision history. On paper, that is a lost day. Miss anything and you risk a Prohibition Notice.
A full audit trail, exported in one click
Every RAMS, every revision, every signature, every timestamp — permanently logged. Filter by site, date, activity or operative. Export a PDF pack for HSE, your insurer, or a principal contractor without leaving the site office.
“HSE inspector walked on site. We had the signed RAMS pack in his hand in four minutes. He left the same day.”
— Site Manager, interiors contractor
The problem
Subbies send RAMS in whatever format suits them — Word, PDF, phone photo of a handwritten sheet. You cannot tell if they are compliant until someone reads every one. Meanwhile the work has already started.
One standard for your subcontractors — automatically checked
Invite subcontractors into your Chime instance. They upload their RAMS against your template. The system checks for mandatory sections (COSHH, PPE, emergency procedures, sign-off) and flags gaps back to them before the job can start. Your standard, enforced without chasing.
“We stopped chasing subbies for RAMS. They cannot mobilise until the RAMS is in, signed and compliant.”
— Health & Safety Director

Named roles, real quotes, anonymised at the customer's request. Ask us for a reference call during the demo.
“We had a cupboard full of RAMS folders and a compliance manager who spent three days a week rewriting them. Chime gave us one template library and every briefing signed on the app. The folders are gone.”
HHealth & Safety Director
H&S Director, UK civils contractor — Civil Engineering — 150+ operatives
“The best bit is the sign-off. I can see exactly who has read today’s RAMS before I let the job start. If somebody has not signed, they do not go on site. That simple.”
SSite Manager
Site Manager, Interiors contractor — Fit-out & Refurbishment — 80+ operatives
“HSE asked for a RAMS pack during an inspection. I filtered the dashboard, exported the PDF and emailed it from my phone before the inspector had finished his coffee. That is worth every penny.”

Why Chime RAMS
Word, email and folders vs Chime RAMS
A side-by-side look at how your current process compares to a construction-first RAMS platform.
RAMS library
Word + email + folders: Generic Word templates you rewrite every job
Chime RAMS: IOSH-reviewed library for UK construction, site-specific in minutes
Sign-off
Word + email + folders: Paper sheets, photographed, filed in a folder
Chime RAMS: Digital signature on the operative’s phone with photo + GPS
Link to clock-in
Word + email + folders: None — operatives clock in regardless
Chime RAMS: No signed RAMS, no clock-in. Compliance is enforced
Subcontractor RAMS
Word + email + folders: Word, PDF, scanned paper — seven different formats
Chime RAMS: One standard for subbies, with automated gap-checks
HSE audit pack
Word + email + folders: Hours of filing cabinet archaeology
Chime RAMS: Filter, export, email — under four minutes
Revision history
Word + email + folders: Unknown which version a crew actually briefed
Chime RAMS: Every revision, signature and timestamp permanently logged
One platform
RAMS is one module of the Chime construction platform
Your RAMS data links directly to inductions, skills, clock-in, and payroll — so compliance is enforced automatically, not chased after the fact.
