03

HOW THE RECORDS WORK TOGETHER

Know what’s missing before work starts.

A worker’s training can affect site access. An inspection can raise a defect. An incident can lead to a control review. Argent links these records so you can follow the issue and the work needed to deal with it.

01 / WORKFORCE READINESS

Check who is ready for site.

See the training and contractor requirements for each role, identify gaps and organise what needs to be completed before mobilisation.

02 / OPERATIONAL CONTROL

Keep track of the follow-up.

Link permits, assets, inspections, defects and changes to the people doing the work and the approvals they need.

03 / ASSURANCE

Find the record behind the decision.

Keep findings, decisions, document versions and verification evidence with the records they relate to.

People & workforce

Keep track of people, their roles and what they need for work.

People, teams & positions

Keep workforce profiles, teams, appointments and reporting lines in one place. Link people to the requirements and responsibilities of their positions.

Contractors & prequalification

Keep company records, link workers to their employers and set prequalification requirements by contractor category. Authorised company representatives can update the information they’re permitted to manage through Company Hub.

Site access & visitors

Check training, company qualification and insurance against your requirements during site access reviews. Register visitors, record their hosts and link the inductions they need.

Rosters & advisory fatigue modelling

Build repeating rosters and test work and sleep assumptions using TPM or Unified biomathematical fatigue models to support roster planning and discussion.

Attendance & hours worked

Review clocking records, who is on site and working-hours exceptions. Record reasons for corrections and report hours against your organisational structure. Supported Astra devices can be used for dedicated clocking/time and attendance.

Learning & competency

Set training requirements and see who has met them.

Learning content & delivery

Build learning requirements from SCORM 1.2 and 2004 courses, built-in quizzes, documents and practical activities.

Training needs & matrix

Assign training through positions, teams and supported rules. Use the Training Matrix to see completions, expiry dates and gaps across your workforce.

Assessments, evidence & authorisation

Manage practical observations, certificate submissions and evidence checks, with the quality review and authorisation stages you set. Keep a clear distinction between an uploaded document and verified competency.

Reusable assessment material & records

Reuse Units of Competency assessment material. Workers can view their assignments, progress and learning records.

Health & wellbeing

Manage health records with access controls for confidential information.

Health assessments & declarations

Set assessment types, forms, validity periods and review steps. Keep the requirements an employer needs to see separate from confidential clinical information they don’t.

Medication declarations

Record medications and doses using lookups from the ARTG or manually enter. Set required evidence, notices and review steps based on your fit-for-work policy, or medicines classification.

Injury management

Keep case records, capacity certificates, suitable duties, correspondence and reviews together. Use roster-linked calendars to record lost time and restricted work.

Drug & alcohol testing

Set up testing methods, fields and outcomes. Record initial and secondary tests, medication information, evidence and follow-up.

Safety, risk & assurance

Record risks, investigate events and follow up the work that results.

Events & investigations

Set up the event types you need, review incoming reports and manage investigations using graphical 5 Whys and ICAM tools. Keep the timeline, evidence, findings and review decisions with the investigation.

Risk assessment & graphical analysis

Use JSEA, WRAC and BBRA, with Bow Tie and Event Tree Analysis for graphical risk analysis. Set your risk matrices and approval steps to what your organisation uses.

Critical Control Management

Link approved risk information to material unwanted events, critical controls, responsible positions and performance standards. Schedule verifications and follow up controls that are degraded, failed or have not been verified.

Actions & independent verification

Set action owner/s, due dates and completion criteria for each action. Link it to the original issue and specify independent verification where required.

Legal compliance

Record obligations, decide where they apply and assign responsibility and review dates. Link the documents, assessments and corrective work that support them.

Operational control

Manage the records and approvals behind work on site.

Assets, inspections & defects

Keep asset records and operating requirements, record inspections and link findings to defects. Follow repairs and other corrective work through to completion, with the evidence and history attached.

Permits to work & SIMOPS

Set permit types, roles, competency requirements and approvals. Track each permit from issue and acceptance through suspension or closure, with simultaneous-operations checks where configured.

Chemicals & substances

Keep a searchable chemical register with safety data sheets and approved site uses. Manage requests to introduce substances, link risk evidence and retain review decisions.

Management of change

Record a proposed change, its impacts and the assessments it needs. Route approvals, assign implementation tasks and track independent verification, effectiveness reviews and closure.

Weather forecast

View current temperature, rainfall and humidity and lightning alongside forecasts on one page using publicly available weather sources.

Processes & information

Set up forms, approvals, documents and reports to suit your organisation.

Workflow & custom registers

Build forms, conditional fields, step-by-step approvals and registers. Assign work to named people, positions, roles or reporting relationships.

Controlled documents

Assign document owners and manage reviews, approvals and publication. Give intended readers access to the current approved version and retain earlier versions.

Reports & automation

Build reports from supported data sources, within your access permissions. Save layouts, schedule delivery and check assignment and notification rules using simulated runs first.

Shared access, mobile & integrations

Control access by role and record scope, and with OpenID Connect. Use scoped read APIs and signed webhooks to connect other systems.

CONFIGURATION THAT FITS

Use your own forms and approval steps.

Set up forms, registers, permit types, risk matrices and approvals to match your procedures. Assign work to people, positions, roles or reporting relationships.
