In the construction world, safety often gets treated as something to react to - an incident happens, and teams scramble to respond. But the real goal isn't reaction. It's prevention. And the key to prevention today is going digital.
Risk-based safety plans (RSPs) are no longer paper-based documents that live in binders. When powered by digital tools like FTQ360, RSPs become active, real-time workflows that guide safety efforts to focus on project-specific risks.
These aren’t just formalities, they’re embedded systems that bring consistency, accountability, and visibility to safety, starting before the work even begins.
Think of an RSP as your project’s built-in safety logic. It outlines exactly when, where, and how safety checks happen throughout the job. You’re not waiting for something to go wrong, you’re verifying that everything is right before a task moves forward. With a risk-based approach, you focus on identifying and controlling potential risks at the source.
When your crews know what safety checkpoints matter most and when those checkpoints are embedded in daily work, the results change. Safety isn’t an add-on. It becomes part of how the job gets done. And when you digitize that plan with FTQ360, safety actions are triggered automatically, tracked in real time, and visible to everyone who needs to know.
A good Risk-based Inspection Plan is clear, structured, and grounded in the real-world risks of your scope.
Each task includes:
These aren’t abstract requirements. They’re tied to hazards like confined space entry, energized systems, rebar placement, or scaffold setup. And when FTQ360 is behind your RSP, each checkpoint can launch mobile safety checklists, auto-alerts, and photo-verified documentation in the field.
Paper slows everything down. It gets lost, skipped, or filed too late to matter. A digital RSP ensures your plan is more than a guideline. It becomes a live safety system. Every checkpoint is accessible from mobile devices. Deficiencies are flagged in real time. Performance metrics and trends are visible across your entire team.
FTQ360’s digital platform connects your safety plan directly to field execution. It automates:
Proactive safety means building a process where hazards are controlled before they become incidents. RSPs make that possible. They take safety off the sidelines and anchor it into the daily rhythm of your project.
With FTQ360, Risk-based safety plans become easy to build, simple to manage, and powerful in impact. Your team works safer. Your subs stay accountable. And your projects move forward with confidence.
