Built for New Zealand industrial sites
Every procedure, where the work happens.
Send us the documents you already have. SOPstart turns them into clear steps your people follow on the floor, records every job as it is done, and keeps every version on file.
How it works
From the documents you have to the job done right
Your existing SOPs become the steps people follow on the floor, and every job done comes back as a record.
- 1
Send
Your SOPs as they are: Word, PDF or scans.
- 2
Convert
SOPstart turns them into clear steps, hazards and PPE first.
- 3
Approve
Your people check them. Nothing reaches the floor before that.
- 4
Run
Followed one step at a time, on any phone or screen.
- 5
Sign off
A supervisor signs the job off, and it is on record.
Accessible
Clear to everyone on site, first time
Long documents get skimmed and the one line that matters gets missed. Each step comes in plain words, one at a time, where people can act on it.
- Hazards and PPE first, in the safety sign colours people know
- Photos of your own machines on the steps that need them
- Any phone, tablet or screen, with buttons big enough for gloves
- Found on a map of your site, by area, machine or search
Before
Prior to commencement, ensure all energy sources associated with the infeed assembly have been isolated in accordance with site procedure.
In SOPstart
Switch off and lock the infeed isolator.
Accountable
Every job done, ticked and signed off
Start turns a SOP into a checklist. It can only be sent once every step is ticked, and the supervisor sees exactly what was done.
- Hazards acknowledged and PPE confirmed before the first step
- Photos as proof where a step needs it
- Signed off, or sent back with a reason
- A training record for every person, by role

Audit-ready
Every version, every job, on file
Nothing reaches the floor until your people approve it. After that, every change, job and sign-off is recorded, and each person sees only what their role needs.
- Shows the training, instruction and supervision the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 asks of you
- Each document has an owner and a review date
- A change log that can only be added to, never edited
- Access by role, hosted in Australia, encrypted in transit and at rest
