Frequently asked questions

Common questions about general builder RAMS.

How do I handle multi-activity RAMS?

Create a RAMS for each significant activity or phase. Use a coordination matrix showing which trades overlap and how you manage shared risks. RAMS Builder lets you create multiple linked RAMS per project.

How often should I update my builder RAMS?

Review and update when the job scope changes, new hazards emerge, an incident occurs, or at regular intervals on longer jobs (weekly or fortnightly).

How should I manage version control on RAMS?

RAMS Builder automatically tracks versions with timestamps, author, and change history. Each revision is stored and any previous version can be reviewed or exported.
