Crew sign-off from a QR code

No app and no paper sign-in sheet. Included with every account.

Codes printed on your AHA

Your AHA prints two sign-in codes on the document: one for competent persons and one for your crew. The Share dialog on Saved Docs shows the same codes, or you can email the link.

Sign on a phone

Each person types their name and signs with a finger. No app to install and no account to create.

Filed in the signed PDF

Names, signatures, dates and times are added to a signed copy of the AHA. Download it from Saved Docs.

The link a save opens takes up to 10 competent persons and up to 50 crew members, and stays open for 30 days. When you share again by hand you can choose a shorter time, from 24 hours to 30 days (72 hours unless you choose otherwise), and fewer places; the defaults are 3 and 10. You can close a link at any time, which pauses every code until you share again.

Built for Real-World USACE & Federal Project Compliance

AHA Generator helps contractors, SSHOs, and federal project teams create structured Activity Hazard Analyses aligned with EM 385-1-1 requirements and OSHA safety principles.

Designed for practical jobsite use — not generic templates. Clear structure. Consistent hazard identification. Submission-ready documentation.

EM 385-1-1 Requires Structured Hazard Planning

On USACE and federally funded construction projects, contractors must submit Activity Hazard Analyses that clearly define:

  • Defined job steps and work sequences
  • Specific anticipated hazards
  • Control measures and implementation methods
  • Risk Assessment Code (RAC) scoring
  • Equipment, training, and inspection requirements
  • Supervisor and responsible party sign-off

Many teams rely on outdated Word or Excel templates that create inconsistencies, formatting errors, and revision cycles during submittal review.

AHA Generator provides a structured framework that standardizes your documentation process — helping reduce rejected submittals, minimize delays, and maintain defensible safety records.

What Happens After You Buy Credits

A structured Activity Hazard Analysis system improves more than documentation. It strengthens approval efficiency, operational consistency, and compliance confidence across every USACE and federally funded project.

Instead of scrambling with outdated templates, you gain a standardized framework that supports both safety performance and production timelines.

  • Faster AHA approvals and fewer revision cycles
  • Reduced project mobilization delays
  • Standardized hazard identification across crews and subcontractors
  • Clear and defensible RAC scoring methodology
  • Structured control implementation documentation
  • Professional, submission-ready PDF or Word output
  • Improved audit and inspection readiness
  • Greater confidence during USACE safety reviews

Purchase credits once. Generate compliant, structured AHAs whenever your projects require them — without subscription lock-ins or formatting headaches.

WHAT HAPPENS IF AHAs ARE NOT STRUCTURED CORRECTLY?

On USACE and federally funded projects, Activity Hazard Analyses must clearly identify job steps, anticipated hazards, control measures, and Risk Assessment Codes (RAC). Incomplete or inconsistent AHAs may result in rejected submittals, project disruption, and increased compliance scrutiny.

Rejected Submittals

AHAs that do not clearly align with EM 385-1-1 structure may be returned for revision, delaying project mobilization and work commencement.

Project Delays

Delays in documentation approval can stall site activities, impacting subcontractors, scheduling, and overall productivity.

Compliance Exposure

Poorly structured hazard identification and control measures may increase regulatory risk during audits, inspections, or incident investigations.

Inconsistent Hazard Controls

Without a structured system, hazard controls may vary across crews and subcontractors, reducing consistency in safety execution.

Last-Minute Documentation Stress

Manual templates often lead to rushed revisions the night before kickoff, increasing the likelihood of errors and omissions.

Increased Liability Exposure

In the event of an incident, incomplete documentation may weaken the defensibility of your safety management processes.
