Site Notice!

Product Suggestion

Introduce a Site Notice field within the system that allows authorised users to create and manage important site-wide notifications which are then displayed directly on relevant permits.

This would ensure that critical information is consistently visible at the point of permit creation and review, improving awareness of site conditions, restrictions, and ongoing activity.

Examples of site notices could include:

  • Health & safety alerts

  • Fire alarm testing schedules

  • Car parking restrictions

  • Severe weather warnings

  • Concurrent works being carried out on site

  • Temporary access restrictions or diversions


Problem Statement

There is currently no centralised way to display important site-wide notices directly within permits.

As a result, users may need to communicate this information separately, which can lead to:

  • Important updates being missed

  • Inconsistent communication across contractors

  • Reduced visibility of live site conditions

  • Increased reliance on external messaging or manual updates


Suggested Improvement

Add a configurable Site Notice field at site or workspace level, allowing authorised users to:

  • Create and update active site notices

  • Set visibility rules (e.g. workspace, project, or permit-level display)

  • Display notices prominently on all relevant permits

  • Update or remove notices as site conditions change

The notice should be clearly visible during permit creation, review, and approval workflows.


Potential Benefits

  • Improved visibility of critical site information

  • Better communication of live risks and restrictions

  • Reduced chance of contractors missing important updates

  • More consistent messaging across permits

  • Enhanced safety awareness on site

  • Centralised management of temporary site conditions

    I like the idea, we’ve spoken about how comms like this might be best communicated to contractors. I think i’d like to see it applicable more broadly than just on permits, maybe a site notice appears on the supplier/contractor portal across all pages too…🤔
