Developed solely for technical research, process innovation, and skills development, the platform is not operated commercially due to professional conflict-of-interest considerations. It serves as a practical demonstration of my interest in applying emerging technologies, data analysis, and automation to solve complex compliance challenges. The project does not take clients, accept paid engagements, or solicit commercial relationships of any kind.
Working risk assessors typically use three or four separate tools to complete one job. The prototype tests whether a unified workflow — aligned to the engineer's mental model on site — is achievable as a single integrated tool, rather than a stack of integrations. None of these are claims; they are research questions.
Can the assessor describe a system once and have only the relevant HSG274 questions surface? Today most tools render every question regardless of system attributes.
Most platforms are built around assets and tasks because that is what the compliance manager wants to see. Would a system-mental-model data shape map closer to what the engineer is actually doing on site?
Photos in one tool, temperatures in another, narrative in a third. Could all of it live in one data model from capture through to the final PDF, eliminating the assessor's data-integrator role?
Most reports are auto-generated from templates and feel generic. Could the report be a structured projection of the assessment itself, with engineer judgement interleaved into the structured output?
Findings of severity B/C should flow into the action plan automatically with HSG274-aligned timeframes. No double-entry. Testable as a small UX win or a substantive workflow change.
Sign-off is typically a parallel ceremony with a separate authoring pass. Could it be the natural final step of the on-site flow, with the PDF already done when the engineer leaves the site?
