EHS software for construction is no longer a nice-to-have – it’s an essential tool for staying compliant, protecting workers, and keeping projects on track. But not all EHS systems are created equal. For many construction firms, the biggest problem isn’t whether EHS software exists – it’s whether teams actually use it. That’s where Boxcore comes in.
Boxcore is a mobile-first EHS and workforce platform built specifically for real-world construction teams. Whether you’re managing a civil infrastructure project in Ireland, a high-rise in New York City, or subcontracting on a London development, the demands of safety compliance, training, and documentation are constant. Boxcore simplifies how teams handle these demands – and helps them do it faster.
The Problem with Most Construction EHS Software
Many EHS platforms were designed for office-based industries, not dynamic job sites. They often fail to consider how construction really works: scattered crews, ever-changing workforces, and intense regulatory pressure. The result is bloated systems that are difficult to roll out, underused by crews, and heavily reliant on emails and manual data uploads.
Time-strapped site managers, engineers and superintendents don’t have hours to navigate clunky systems. When software adds admin instead of removing it, adoption fails — and so does the promise of digital safety.
What Makes Boxcore Different?
Boxcore was designed for the field — not the office. Its clean, mobile-first interface removes the friction that typically prevents software adoption on construction sites. Features like facial recognition time and attendance, automated safety registers, and digital document management ensure that compliance doesn’t become a bottleneck.

Here’s how it addresses the core challenges construction teams face:
1. Mobile-First Simplicity
Every feature of Boxcore is built for frontline use. From uploading RAMS and training records to completing safety audits, everything can be done from a phone in seconds. You don’t need to be a tech expert to use it – and that’s the point.
2. Real-Time Site Visibility
Know who’s on site, which crew they belong to, and whether they’re compliant with required training. Boxcore uses facial recognition at entry points to log attendance automatically and track workforce activity accurately.

4. Rapid Onboarding for Crews and Subcontractors
Contractors don’t just need to train their own staff – they need to manage a revolving door of subcontractors. Boxcore helps teams onboard new workers in minutes with digital inductions, checklists, and document uploads. This ensures no one steps onto site without the right credentials.

5. Elimination of Paper and Manual Processes
Manual spreadsheets and email threads are a thing of the past. Boxcore replaces them with automated safety registers, on-demand reports, and a single, cloud-based platform. You can instantly generate time & Attendance reports by project, contractor or timeframe — no need to chase paperwork, just accurate data accessible in a couple of clicks.
Built for Contractors of All Sizes
Boxcore is used on over 1,100 projects globally, across Tier One contractors, regional firms, and subcontractors. Around 50% of Boxcore’s customer base is made up of subcontractors — a reflection of how accessible and adaptable the system is, regardless of team size or project scale.
From a 20-person site team to a 500-worker megaproject, Boxcore delivers the same results: faster compliance, easier access to data, and a sharp reduction in admin.

Designed to Deliver Results — Fast
Unlike legacy systems that require weeks of training and integration, Boxcore is typically fully deployed within a matter of hours. Worker training data can be migrated free of charge, and site teams are onboarded in minutes. A designated Customer Success Manager ensures support is on hand — but most teams don’t need it. Simplicity is built in.
“Time is scarce on construction projects and teams simply don’t have the bandwidth for tools that don’t deliver a clear return quickly. Contractors want to save time, reduce admin and get better visibility across projects. That’s what we’re focused on – helping contractors unlock a step change in productivity by removing manual admin from their safety processes.”
— Padraig Reilly, CEO & Founder of Boxcore
