Switching is worth it if your team needs multi-user sign-on, structured hazard and risk scoring, and a versioned RAMS register. If you're a single site manager doing basic mobile snagging, it may not be.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-heading-body\">\n<h2>What Site Audit Pro Is Built For<\/h2>\n<p>Site Audit Pro is a mobile-first app designed to make snagging and defect reporting fast and simple for individual site managers. It's built around capture and audit workflows, not safety document authoring.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"checklist-tick\">\n  <li>- Mobile snagging and defect capture on site<\/li>\n  <li>- Site inspection reporting for quality and defects<\/li>\n  <li>- Quick individual use without a complex setup<\/li>\n  <li>- PDF export of inspection records<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-heading-body\">\n<h2>Why Teams Look for an Alternative<\/h2>\n<p>Site Audit Pro works for a single person on a single device. Once a team needs to share RAMS, get crew signatures, or pull records across jobs, that model starts to break down.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"checklist-tick\">\n  <li>- Single-account model means only one person can access or share the record, which is a problem when that person is off site<\/li>\n  <li>- No web access, so records can't be reviewed or managed from a desktop<\/li>\n  <li>- PDF generation is slow, which holds up sending documents to clients or principal contractors<\/li>\n  <li>- No structured RAMS authoring, hazard scoring, or crew sign-on built in<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-callout\">\n<p>It's 6am, the job starts at seven, and the RAMS is a Word file nobody can find on SharePoint. The client wants it signed and emailed before anyone's on site.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-heading-body\">\n<h2>What Dashpivot by Sitemate Is Built For<\/h2>\n<p>Dashpivot by Sitemate is a field system for building, running and signing off safety documents like RAMS, then keeping the record. You build the RAMS once, run it on any device, and every version stays filed against the job.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"checklist-tick\">\n  <li><strong>RAMS and method statements<\/strong> built from a reusable template, not retyped for every job<\/li>\n  <li><strong>Sign-on on site<\/strong> so the crew is recorded against the RAMS they were actually briefed on<\/li>\n  <li><strong>One register<\/strong> of every RAMS, across every job and every subcontractor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>","ai_lp_body_2":"<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-heading-body\">\n<h2>How Dashpivot does [the job]<\/h2>\n<p>Three steps, and you own the record at the end of all of them.

It becomes the form every job runs from.<\/p>\n    <ul class=\"checklist-tick\">\n      <li>[Optional. The routes in, one per line, if there is more than one way. Bold the route, then a short qualifier. Delete if there is only one path.]<\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n  <\/li>\n  <li>\n    <p class=\"eyebrow-sm\">Step 2<\/p>\n    <h3>Run and Sign It On Site<\/h3>\n    <p>Fill it on any device, offline if the site has no signal. Storm can draft the first version from the work scope, and the crew signs onto it before the job starts.<\/p>\n    <ul class=\"checklist-tick\">\n      <li>[Optional. What gets captured, one per line. Storm is a line in this list, never the heading.]<\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n  <\/li>\n  <li>\n    <p class=\"eyebrow-sm\">Step 3<\/p>\n    <h3>Keep the Signed Record<\/h3>\n    <p>Every RAMS is filed against its job and date, versioned and audit ready. Export it to PDF, email it to the client, and it stays yours after the job closes.<\/p>\n    <ul class=\"checklist-tick\">\n      <li>[Optional. What the record carries, one per line.]<\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n  <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-heading-body\">\n<h2>What Dashpivot Does Not Replace<\/h2>\n<p>Dashpivot runs the RAMS process and holds the record. It doesn't decide whether your controls are adequate, and it isn't a legal sign-off. A competent person still reviews the hazards and signs the method as safe for the job in front of them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-subheading-body\">\n<h3>What Dashpivot Does for RAMS Today<\/h3>\n<p>What ships today, and nothing that doesn't:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"checklist-tick\">\n  <li>Build RAMS and method statement templates with hazards, risk scoring and controls<\/li>\n  <li>Draft the first version with Storm from the work scope, then edit it<\/li>\n  <li>Sign the crew onto the RAMS on site, on any device, offline<\/li>\n  <li>Keep every RAMS in one register, versioned and audit ready<\/li>\n  <li>Export to PDF and email it to the client or principal contractor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-subheading-body\">\n<h3>Where Dashpivot Stops<\/h3>\n<p>The honest gaps, and we'd rather you know them now:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"checklist-cross\">\n  <li>Decide whether a control is adequate. A competent person owns that call<\/li>\n  <li>Act as legal or regulatory sign-off on your RAMS<\/li>\n  <li>Replace a dedicated estimating, accounting or design tool<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>","ai_lp_comparison":"<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-comparison\">\n<p>Site Audit Pro is a mobile audit and snagging app. A RAMS is a shared, structured method statement, so the differences that matter are multi-user access, web and mobile, and how specific the document gets.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"checklist-tick\">\n  <li>Columns: Capability | Dashpivot | Site Audit Pro<\/li>\n  <li>Structured RAMS and method statement authoring | Yes, purpose-built | Audit and snagging focused<\/li>\n  <li>Multi-user, shared records | Yes | Single-account reported<\/li>\n  <li>Web and mobile | Yes | Mobile-only reported<\/li>\n  <li>On-site crew sign-on to the RAMS | Yes | Limited<\/li>\n  <li>Storm drafts the first version from the work scope | Yes | No<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-heading-body\">\n<h2>Where the Two Actually Differ<\/h2>\n<p>The core difference is purpose. Site Audit Pro is built for snagging and defect capture. Dashpivot by Sitemate is built for authoring, signing off, and filing RAMS as structured safety records.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"checklist-tick\">\n  <li>- Dashpivot has purpose-built RAMS templates with hazard identification, risk scoring, and controls. Site Audit Pro is focused on audit and snagging, not method statement authoring.<\/li>\n  <li>- Dashpivot is multi-user and team-shared across web and mobile. Site Audit Pro is reported as single-account and mobile-only.<\/li>\n  <li>- Crew sign-on to the RAMS on site is built into Dashpivot. Site Audit Pro has limited support for this.<\/li>\n  <li>- Storm in Dashpivot drafts the first version of a RAMS from the work scope. Site Audit Pro has no equivalent.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-heading-body\">\n<h2>Where Site Audit Pro Is the Better Choice<\/h2>\n<p>Site Audit Pro is genuinely cheap and quick to start for a single site manager who needs basic mobile snagging. If that's the whole job, Dashpivot by Sitemate is more than you need.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"checklist-tick\">\n  <li>- You're an individual site manager who needs fast, simple defect capture with no team sharing required<\/li>\n  <li>- Your main workflow is snagging and inspection, not RAMS authoring or crew sign-on<\/li>\n  <li>- You want the lowest-friction tool to get started without any setup or configuration<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-heading-body\">\n<h2>How Teams Move From Site Audit Pro<\/h2>\n<p>Nobody moves every RAMS at once. You decide whether it's worth it, bring one job across, then widen out once a crew has signed onto a live one.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"ailp-block ailp-step-list\">\n<ol class=\"ailp-steps\">\n  <li>\n    <p class=\"eyebrow-sm\">Step 1<\/p>\n    <h3>Decide<\/h3>\n    <p>If one person runs your site audits from a phone and that is the whole job, Site Audit Pro is built for it. Move when more than one person needs the record, when you need it on the web as well, or when you are authoring a full RAMS rather than a snag list.<\/p>\n  <\/li>\n  <li>\n    <p class=\"eyebrow-sm\">Step 2<\/p>\n    <h3>Convert<\/h3>\n    <p>Bring one job's RAMS across. Rebuild it as a Dashpivot form, or start from the free RAMS template and add your hazards and method steps. Word and PDF documents can ride along while you switch.<\/p>\n  <\/li>\n  <li>\n    <p class=\"eyebrow-sm\">Step 3<\/p>\n    <h3>Pilot<\/h3>\n    <p>Run it live on one job. The crew signs onto the RAMS on site, and you keep exporting the PDF you send the client, so nothing you depend on switches off while you test it.<\/p>\n  <\/li>\n  <li>\n    <p class=\"eyebrow-sm\">Step 4<\/p>\n    <h3>Roll Out<\/h3>\n    <p>Once one crew has run a live RAMS end to end, add the rest of your jobs and subcontractors. Every RAMS lands in one register, and the visibility gap closes.<\/p>\n  <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>","ai_lp_band_logo":"<img class=\"product-logo\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate-headless.pages.dev\/shared\/assets\/logos\/dashpivot-logo.svg\" alt=\"Dashpivot\">","ai_lp_band_heading":"","ai_lp_band_intro":"","ai_lp_capabilities":"<div class=\"custom-col-12 bento-col\">\n  <div class=\"custom-grid\">\n    <div class=\"custom-col-6 ailp-cap ailp-cap--split\">\n      <div class=\"ailp-cap-icon\"><img src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ai-storm-icon.svg\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n      <div class=\"ailp-cap-text\">\n        <h3>AI Form Generation<\/h3>\n        <p>Describe the form you need in plain language, or upload an existing PDF, Word or Excel document.
