IMHO and experience these are a scam. They sell you a seemingly cheap solution but once you are on the hook, fleece you for upgrades/changes etc Build a spread sheet you can modify as you progress

These can be very effective. Make sure you know exactly what you want before asking companies to come and present to you. There are many threads asking for similar information so it may be worth searching for electronic management systems for information

I have used a product called Q-Pulse (from Gael Ltd) for many years to record accidents, near misses and actions related to them (also define root cause for trend analysis). Ideal for OHSAS18001 as it is a 9001 tool. It has an excellent Audit module and also has document control and recording of training (I am not associated with Gael). Worth a look.

The mere mention of Q-pulse sends me into a rage.
