How to request RAMS from a contractor
When a contractor is due to attend site, the client, site manager, principal contractor or facilities team may need RAMS before access, induction or approval. A good RAMS request should clearly state the job, site, required document type, deadline and any specific concerns such as work at height, hot works, COSHH, permits, public interface or emergency arrangements.
Riskora lets you send a structured RAMS request to a contractor instead of writing a vague email from scratch. The contractor receives the request with the job details and a link to build a professional, editable safety document through Riskora.
