NHBC and Riskex

Supporting NHBC customers with practical health and safety software

Already trusted by NHBC and organisations across the UK, AssessNET provides practical, configurable software built to support the realities of complex, multi-site operations.

Built by health and safety professionals, shaped by real operations

Who are Riskex

Founded in 2000, Riskex has been helping organisations manage health and safety, risk and compliance through practical software built around real operational challenges.

Developed by health and safety professionals, AssessNET combines over 25 years of industry expertise with modern, cloud-based technology to help organisations replace fragmented spreadsheets, paperwork and disconnected systems with one flexible, configurable platform.

Designed for organisations managing complex operations

Construction and housebuilding organisations rarely operate from one site, one team or one process. Multiple developments, contractors and operational activities can make it difficult to maintain visibility and consistency across the business.

AssessNET helps bring these processes together in one configurable platform, supporting clearer oversight of inspections, contractor activity, incidents, permits and corrective actions.

The platform is flexible enough to reflect the way your organisation already works, while helping teams reduce fragmented administration and manage health and safety more consistently across every site.

Why construction organisations choose AssessNET

AssessNET helps construction and housebuilding organisations move from fragmented administration to clearer operational control.

By connecting key health and safety processes in one platform, teams can work from more consistent information, reduce duplication and improve follow-through on actions across every site.

This supports better outcomes across the business, including:

  • clearer visibility of risks, actions and outstanding issues
  • more consistent processes across developments and regions
  • stronger contractor oversight
  • faster access to operational records and evidence
  • improved reporting for managers and leadership teams
  • less time spent chasing updates across spreadsheets, emails and paperwork

The result is a more connected approach to health and safety management, helping organisations stay organised, proactive and better informed as operations grow.
