Construction site safety software is no longer a luxury. It’s an operational necessity. With growing pressure from regulators, clients and insurance providers—not to mention the reality of high-risk work environments—contractors must have reliable, accessible systems in place to manage workforce safety and compliance. But here’s the catch: many tools fail to get adopted at site level. They’re clunky, admin-heavy, or simply not designed for the people who actually use them.
At Boxcore, we’ve taken a different approach. We’ve created software that works for real-world construction teams. It’s built for speed, simplicity and adoption—from the ground up. Whether you’re a subcontractor managing small crews or a Tier One contractor overseeing hundreds of workers across multiple projects, our solution delivers the compliance and visibility you need, without the hassle.
The Problem with Traditional Safety Management
Construction sites are busy, high-pressure environments. Paper-based systems, shared drives, and endless email threads make it far too easy for safety-critical information to get lost or delayed. Excel registers are often out of date. Audits become a last-minute panic. And site supervisors end up wasting valuable hours chasing paperwork instead of managing work on the ground.
Even many of the digital systems on the market today are office-first—designed around desktop workflows that don’t translate well to the realities of site life. When software is too complex or slow to use on mobile, it simply gets ignored.
That’s where purpose-built construction site safety software makes the difference.
What Construction Teams Really Need
From conversations with contractors across Ireland, the UK, and the US, it’s clear that teams want a system that:
- Centralises all safety data in one place
- Works seamlessly across desktop and mobile
- Allows fast onboarding of workers and subcontractors
- Automates registers for training, RAMS, permits and equipment
- Provides instant visibility of who’s onsite and whether they’re compliant
At Boxcore, we’ve built exactly that. Our platform is already trusted by over 200 contractors, used across more than 1,000 live projects.
Automating Safety Documentation
With Boxcore, site teams can capture and access key safety documentation in just a few clicks. Our digital safety solution allows you to:
- Upload and store RAMS, CSCS cards, SafePass certifications, SST cards, and permits
- Automatically track expiry dates and receive alerts
- Manage approvals from any device
- Share documents securely with clients or auditors
Instead of relying on manual spreadsheets or email chains, Boxcore acts as a single source of truth—cutting out duplication, delays and admin.
We also help firms stay compliant with jurisdiction-specific requirements, including Local Law 196 in NYC and ISO 45001 standards in the UK and Ireland.
Real-Time Site Visibility with Integrated Attendance and Access Control
One of the standout features of Boxcore’s construction workforce platform is our integrated time and attendance tracking, powered by facial recognition. This gives foremen and project directors real-time visibility of who is on site, whether they’ve completed induction, and if their training is in date.
Facial recognition supports secure access control, especially useful for sites using turnstiles. Approved workers can be granted site access automatically—helping to enforce compliance and streamline check-ins. Our system integrates with Suprema BioStation 3 hardware, selected for its reliability in tough on-site conditions.
Need to pull a report for a safety briefing or audit? You can generate time and attendance records by company, role or individual with just a few taps.

Onboarding Without the Headache
One of the biggest adoption barriers for safety software is complexity. If your teams and subcontractors can’t get up to speed fast, they simply won’t use it.
Boxcore solves this with a mobile-first design and onboarding process that takes minutes—not hours. Workers can be added to the system in seconds, and you can capture induction details, CSCS or SafePass card records, and job-specific documentation during setup. We even offer full digital onboarding flows to speed up mobilisations on new projects.
We handle all initial training and data migration at no extra cost. Site teams typically go live with their own data in under 48 hours. And for every client, we provide a dedicated customer success manager to offer guidance and support—whether onsite or online.
Making Audits Simple
Whether you’re facing a client inspection, internal review, or regulatory audit, having your records in order matters. Boxcore simplifies audit preparation through automated registers for:
- Worker training and certifications
- Equipment and asset inspections
- Document control and approvals
Our platform makes it easy to carry out safety audits and assign follow-up actions directly to site teams. Progress is visible in real-time, ensuring nothing gets missed.

Built to Scale, Trusted by Tier One and Subcontractors Alike
Boxcore is designed to work whether you’re managing 5 workers or 500. That’s why almost half our customer base today are subcontractors—firms who need a reliable system to stay on top of client requirements and share updates in real-time. At the same time, we’re used on large infrastructure and data centre projects across Europe and North America, where centralised oversight and reporting are critical.

Why Speed of Use Matters
Construction software often fails not because it lacks features—but because it gets in the way. As Padraig Reilly, CEO and Founder of Boxcore, puts it:
“At the end of the day, our goal is simple: we want to give contractors tools that actually make their lives easier on site. It’s about cutting down the admin, improving safety and helping teams get the job done with less hassle.”
Contractors don’t have time for systems that need hours of training or constant support. Boxcore works because it’s easy. No fluff, no friction—just tools that do the job.
Start Managing Site Safety the Smart Way
If you’re still relying on paper, Excel or a clunky legacy system to manage safety and workforce records, it’s time to make the switch. Boxcore’s construction site safety software lets you digitise your safety process, reduce admin, and stay compliant—without slowing down your team.
