About Us

Built by People Who Understand the Job

Creating Risk Assessments should not mean copying old documents, staring at blank pages or rushing paperwork five minutes before arriving on site.

We built Specific Risk Assessments to give trades and construction businesses a better way: a platform that guides people through the process properly and helps produce professional documentation while encouraging real thinking about the work being carried out.

“We believe safety should be done properly – not because someone asks for paperwork, but because good planning helps people work more safely, professionally and confidently.”

Specific Risk Assessments exists to make that easier

Our Story

From paperwork to platform. How we’re reshaping safety in the building trade.

It Started with a Simple Question

Why is creating a proper Risk Assessment so difficult?

Across the construction industry we kept seeing the same problems: old documents being copied, templates reused from completely different jobs and last-minute paperwork completed under pressure.

Risk Assessments had become something people felt they had to produce, rather than something that genuinely helped them plan the job.

We Believed There Had to Be a Better Way

So we started building one.

  • ✓  Guided webforms instead of blank pages
  • ✓  Trade-specific assessments
  • ✓  Professional PDF templates
  • ✓  Secure cloud storage

Designed Around Real Work

Specific Risk Assessments was not built around paperwork. It was built around the way trades actually work.

Every feature has been designed to make creating professional documentation simpler without losing the importance of proper planning.

Helping Businesses Work Smarter

We are not here to help people produce more paperwork. We are here to help them create better paperwork.

Clear, professional, relevant and organised documentation benefits tradespeople, employers, clients, site managers and the people carrying out the work.

Built for Today and Tomorrow

Construction changes. Regulations evolve. Technology moves forward. So do we.

We are continually improving the platform by adding new trades, new assessments, smarter automation and better tools that make creating professional safety documentation even easier.

Why I Built SRA

I built Specific Risk Assessments because I experienced first-hand how frustrating safety paperwork had become.

Too often it felt like paperwork was something you completed simply because someone asked for it.

I believed there had to be a better way – one that encouraged proper planning while making the whole process simpler.

My hope is that every customer who uses SRA finds it easier to stay organised, create professional documentation and build a safer business.

Customer Feedback Matters

Many improvements come directly from the people using SRA every day. If something helps our customers work safer, stay organised or build stronger businesses, it matters to us.

Every Decision Starts With One Question

Does this genuinely help our customers?

If the answer is yes, we will build it, improve it and keep investing in it. Because that is what Specific Risk Assessments exists to do.
