Record every CSCS card, plant ticket and qualification your workforce holds, set what each job role needs, and get told before anything expires. Free on the Foundation plan, and checked at the gate on every clock-in when you upgrade.
30 days free, no card needed.
Most contractors track tickets in a spreadsheet and a folder of photocopies. A groundworker's CPCS card lapses on a Tuesday and nobody notices until the client's audit on Friday. The spreadsheet still says it is valid because nobody updated it, and the copy of the card is in head office, not in the site cabin.
CDM 2015 says nobody may instruct a worker to carry out construction work unless they have, or are in the process of getting, the skills, knowledge, training and experience for it, and it requires the principal contractor to keep unauthorised people off site. The Building Safety Act 2022 has added legal competence duties for everyone carrying out building work, with the strictest regime on higher-risk buildings.
Across several sites and a rotating supply chain, keeping on top of who holds what, and when it runs out, becomes a full-time job. A spreadsheet does not send reminders, does not stop a worker with a lapsed card clocking in, and does not stand up well in an audit.
Every worker has a digital passport that holds their competencies in one place. The passport belongs to the worker, so when they move to another employer that uses AttendIQ, their records move with them.
Start from a built-in library of national construction competencies: CSCS cards, CPCS and NPORS plant cards, SMSTS, SSSTS, the CITB HS&E test, NVQs, temporary works, first aid, rail and street works, and common safety training. Add your own types for anything else.
Record the card type, card number and expiry date against the worker. AttendIQ does not connect to the CSCS database, so check the card once with the free CSCS Smart Check app, record it, and let AttendIQ track the expiry from then on.
Each competency type has its own reminder schedule, and new types default to 90, 60, 30 and 7 days before expiry. Employer admins get a daily summary by email and push notification, and the worker is told directly.
Every record shows a confidence level. A worker's own upload from the app is C1, the lowest. A record entered by an admin is C4. Certificates are stored against the record so anyone checking can open them.
Set up job roles that match how you work, such as groundworker, plant operator, scaffolder or site supervisor, and list the competencies each role needs, marked as mandatory or recommended. AttendIQ then works out the gaps for every worker in that role, so you can see who is fully covered and who needs booking on a course.
The skills matrix puts it on one screen: a row for every worker and a column for every competency your job roles require. Each cell shows whether the competency is valid, expiring within 30 days, expired or booked. Export it to CSV or Excel for a client, an auditor or a tender.
The Expiries page lists every competency, medical and right to work record that has expired or will expire in the next 7, 30 or 90 days, so the weekly review takes minutes, not an afternoon.
On Essential and Complete, competency rules become site access rules. Set them once at the level that makes sense, from the whole organisation down to a project, a site or a single zone, and they apply to everyone below it. A deep excavation zone can demand a confined space ticket that the rest of the site does not.
When a worker clocks in, every rule is checked. A missing or expired competency blocks the clock-in, and the worker sees every reason at once, not one at a time, so they can sort everything out in one go. The same check runs whether the worker uses the app, the gate kiosk or is signed in by a supervisor, and sites can also require workers to hold a particular job role.
Pick competencies from the library, set up your job roles and what each one needs, and, on Essential or Complete, add competency rules to your sites.
Admins add competencies one at a time or award one to many workers at once. Bring existing records in with the Excel import template, up to 500 workers at a time. On paid plans, workers can add their own from the app with a photo of the certificate.
Reminders go out ahead of every expiry date, the skills matrix and Expiries page show where the gaps are, and on paid plans an expired requirement stops the clock-in.
Subcontractors you invite use AttendIQ free of charge and manage their own workers' competencies. As principal contractor you see compliance across your supply chain and can filter the Expiries page by contractor. The rules on your site apply to every worker who clocks in there, whoever employs them, so a subcontractor's operative with a lapsed card is caught at the gate just like your own staff.
Up to 250 worker records. Competency library, job roles, worker records with expiry dates, skills matrix, Expiries page, expiry alerts, Excel import and compliance reports with CSV and Excel export.
Everything in Foundation, plus sites and access rules so competencies are checked at every clock-in, and the mobile app so workers carry their passport and add their own certificates.
Everything in Essential, plus document management, advanced and scheduled reporting, and the custom form builder.
Full details are on the pricing page. For more on the card itself, read our guide to CSCS card colours and types.
Every card, ticket and qualification a worker holds: CSCS cards, CPCS and NPORS plant cards, SMSTS and SSSTS, the CITB health, safety and environment test, NVQs, temporary works, first aid, rail and street works qualifications, and common health and safety training such as working at height, manual handling and asbestos awareness. You can also add competency types of your own. Each record holds the expiry date, a reference such as the card number, and the certificate if there is one.
CSCS cards are recorded in the worker's digital passport with the card type, card number and expiry date. AttendIQ does not connect to the CSCS database, so check the card with the free CSCS Smart Check app before you record it. From then on the expiry date is tracked for you, and on Essential and Complete every clock-in is checked against the worker's recorded cards and your site rules.
Reminders are sent ahead of expiry on a schedule set for each competency type. New types default to 90, 60, 30 and 7 days before expiry. Admins at the worker's employer, including subcontractor admins for their own workers, get a daily summary by email and push notification, and the worker is told directly on the app or by email.
Every competency record shows where the evidence came from. A record the worker added themselves on the app is C1, the lowest level. A record entered by an admin is C4. That lets anyone reviewing a passport see at a glance which records came from the worker and which came from an employer.
Yes, on Essential and Complete. Workers add a competency in the Passport section of the app and photograph the certificate. The record is saved at confidence level C1 and the certificate is stored against it, so admins can open and check it at any time.
Yes. Subcontractor admins manage their own workers' competencies, free of charge. As the principal contractor you see compliance across the supply chain, can filter the Expiries page by contractor, and the competency rules you set on a site apply to every worker clocking in there, whoever employs them.
Yes. The Foundation plan is free for up to 250 worker records and includes the competency library, job roles, worker records with expiry dates, the skills matrix, expiry alerts and compliance reports with CSV and Excel export. Upgrade to Essential to check competencies at clock-in and give workers the mobile app.
Start free on Foundation, or try Essential or Complete free for 30 days with up to 25 workers.
