THE BRIEF
The client required a secure web-based application to create, manage, and maintain CDM documentation online. They also needed a self-service portal that allowed construction companies and subcontractors to submit health and safety information through structured questionnaires, helping them standardise compliance processes and reduce manual administration.
Introduction
The Construction Design and Management Regulations placed greater emphasis on managing health and safety risks throughout the lifecycle of construction projects. For SafetyNett UK, this created the need for a more efficient and reliable way to manage CDM documentation while also gathering information from external organisations.
Axisware worked closely with the client to turn that requirement into a bespoke web application and portal. The aim was not just to digitise paperwork, but to create a flexible, user-friendly platform that supported regulatory compliance, improved customer experience, and provided better visibility of operational data.
Solution
Axisware delivered a bespoke web application supported by a Microsoft Azure infrastructure and Azure SQL database environment. During the consultancy phase, the project scope and technical specification were defined in collaboration with the client, ensuring the solution matched both immediate operational needs and future growth plans.
The system was designed to allow SafetyNett UK to create and maintain CDM documents online, while also offering a self-service portal for construction companies and subcontractors to complete health and safety questionnaires. A key requirement was flexibility, so the platform was built with configurable sections and questions that could be added, removed, or adapted by the client as regulations or business processes changed.
To support insight and decision-making, the application also incorporated reporting, data analysis, and interactive dashboards. This gave the client access to business intelligence tools that made it easier to extract, visualise, and interpret operational data in ways that were not previously possible. The development process included staged testing, shared review cycles, and release candidate deployment to ensure the final production release was stable and aligned with user needs.

Conclusion
This bespoke CDM web application gave SafetyNett UK a more modern and scalable way to manage health and safety compliance.

The result was more than a portal. It became a central compliance system that helped SafetyNett UK modernise their service delivery, strengthen operational control, and provide a better digital experience to the organisations they support. The client’s published testimonial also highlights satisfaction with both the usability of the portals and Axisware’s consultative approach.
