RM Express: ready-to-go Health and Safety software for small business
If you are running a small to medium enterprise (SME), you do not have the time, budget, or dedicated personnel to manage a massive, highly complex safety bureaucracy. But under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 (HSWA), your legal duty to protect your workers is exactly the same as a multi-national corporation. When SMEs try to manage their compliance using overflowing filing cabinets and disconnected spreadsheets, they inevitably end up strangled by red tape over paper cuts—bogged down in administrative noise while critical risks go completely unmanaged.
At IMPAC, we have developed RM Express to solve this exact problem. Built by the same specialist team behind our enterprise-level Risk Manager platform, RM Express delivers world-class safety architecture in a highly cost-effective, ready-to-go package. It takes the guesswork out of compliance, getting your team off their keyboards and back to running your business safely.
A smarter way to manage workplace safety
We understand that you do not want to spend six months implementing a digital filing cabinet. You need an operational engine that works immediately.
RM Express is our intuitive, standardised health and safety software for small business. It is explicitly designed for organisations that need to record, monitor, and control their risk and auditing requirements in one central place, without drowning in customisation options. It provides the sophisticated foresight and comprehensive reporting of a top-tier system, stripped back to the essential, high-impact tools that SMEs actually need to keep their people alive.
The IMPAC approach: Where paper-based compliance fails
A static hazard register sitting in a site manager's drawer is not a safety system; it is an illusion of compliance. When you rely on fragmented paper trails, critical information gets lost. Training records expire without anyone noticing, corrective actions from near-misses are never implemented, and the business owner remains entirely blind to the hazards creeping into their daily operations.
We know that digitising bad processes just creates faster bad processes. That is why RM Express is built around our uncompromising Identify > Assess > Control > Monitor framework. It forces accountability by automatically pushing reminders and tracking overdue actions. Furthermore, if you are unsure what risks you should be tracking, our Health and Safety Advisory team can help establish your baseline risk profile before you even log in—acting as the mechanics who tune your software engine so you are managing real hazards, not just generic noise.
Core modules preconfigured for immediate impact
RM Express eliminates "blank page syndrome." It comes preconfigured with our most commonly used, industry-leading modules, allowing your business to transition away from paper immediately:
- Risks: Moves your business beyond static lists into dynamic registers. Track the implementation of critical control measures and receive automated notifications for review dates, ensuring your physical barriers are actually effective.
- Safety Toolbox: A central hub for staff to complete and manage forms. It contains preloaded, best-practice checklists (e.g., Vehicle Checklists, Workplace Inspections, H&S Meeting Minutes) so your team is collecting high-quality data from day one.
- Training: Automates the tracking of staff competencies and occupational licences. It highlights training gaps and automatically sends overdue refresher reminders to prevent unqualified staff from undertaking high-risk work.
- Actions: The engine room of your compliance. It assigns corrective tasks to specific staff members, pushes automated reminders when tasks fall due, and provides a clear audit trail to prove that hazards were actually fixed, not just noted.
- Events: Easily captures near-misses and incidents. The module guides your staff through best-practice investigations to determine root causes, and ensures full compliance with WorkSafe NZ notifiable event reporting and ACC injury requirements.
