Industry-leading online pre-qualification system, SiteWise, is celebrating its 10th anniversary, marking a decade of commitment to health and safety excellence. Since its inception SiteWise has grown to serve over 10,000 customers across New Zealand.

Developed by Site Safe in response to the Canterbury Earthquakes, SiteWise was launched in Christchurch to meet the needs of principal contractors and subcontractors. This easy to-use, fit-for-purpose online tool grades contractors' health and safety capabilities. It also assists main contractors and principal organisations in selecting, engaging, and managing contractors based on their health and safety performance. The product's mission has always been to eliminate barriers and streamline the path to good health and safety practices. Two years after its launch, SiteWise was well established and expanded its services nationwide.

SiteWise has developed its assessment criteria in consultation with an industry working group to ensure it meets the needs of industry.

“SiteWise’s early success was because it addressed a clear need for effective and efficient pre-qualification in the Christchurch rebuild. Over the last 10 years we’ve continued to evolve it, responding to and listening to industry needs and requirements to ensure it helps the supply chain with health and safety assurance.
