Spreadsheets & WhatsApp get you started — not through an audit
Most programmes start with trackers and group chats. The break is often a single scene: someone was dispatched from a WhatsApp thread while the RAMS on site does not match the method statement in the tracker — and finance still cannot tie timesheets to jobs.
Where informal tools break
- No single source of truth for accreditation status across regions.
- Weak audit trails — who approved dispatch, and under what pack?
- Scaling cost — every new client rule becomes a new tab, not a product behaviour.
What Riggr adds
- One operational record — who is eligible, what pack applies to this job, and what finance can invoice against, without re-keying between tools.
- Engineer registry with verification hooks (e.g. EUSR) and expiry discipline.
- Job-led RAMS and compliance outputs tied to that same record system.
- Change control — when RAMS or method statements move on, downstream job records are not left on an old tab nobody refreshed.
- Optional WhatsApp-style comms through controlled channels — not a substitute for records.
