Build a Working Safety Management System (SMS) in 3 Days—Not 6 Months
Walk out with your complete ISO 45001-ready manual, trained team, and software that runs it all. No more drowning in paperwork while real risks go unaddressed.
Our methodologies are used within some of the leading organisations in the world.














📄 Buried in Paperwork, Blind to Real Risk
⏰ No Time for 12-Month Implementations
That’s the trap: months of paperwork, ballooning costs, and no real risk control.
The Fortress Safety System™ was built to break this cycle. In just 3 days, you’ll walk away with a complete, working SMS — without the paperwork swamp or the typical 12-month implementation delays.
Every strong SMS needs a foundation, a way to manage risk, leadership that drives safety, control over contractors, data to guide decisions, and a culture that sticks.
This process doesn’t replace consultants — it gives them a faster, stronger foundation to build on. Instead of spending weeks setting up templates, they can dive straight into tailoring the system, auditing, and preparing you for certification
That’s exactly what our Fortress Safety System™ 6-Pillar Process delivers. It’s a proven model developed from years of real-world experience, designed to turn chaos into control.
1. BASE Foundation – Policies, audits, objectives
Get organized fast—clear direction without drowning in paperwork
2. GUARD Risk Management – Legal requirements, Hazard ID, assessments, controls, emergency management and incident reporting.
Prevent incidents before they happen, not just react
3. LEAD Organization – Roles, competency, leadership
Everyone knows their role—and how to respond when things go wrong
4. GATE External Control – Contractor & visitor management
Control contractor risk at the gate—before it hits your operations
5. SCAN Performance – Data-driven monitoring
See what’s working, what’s not—make better decisions with real data
6. MIND Culture – Sustainable mindset shift
Safety becomes what people do, not what you force them to do
This 6-pillar framework is the backbone of the Fortress Safety System™. It’s the reason companies like Pfizer, JnJ and Grifols trust our approach to manage real risk, not just paperwork.

The complete turnkey solution…..
Most companies know they need a SMS— but they get stuck in the trap of paperwork, consultants, and year-long projects that drain resources without delivering results.
The Fortress Safety System™ Academy is different.
In just 3 days, your team will build and launch a complete, working SMS — not theory, not templates, but your own live system aligned to ISO 45001 principles and when you do engage with consultants, they can focus on high-value improvements rather than re-creating the basics.

Before we talk cost, let’s be sure your organization is ready for our 3-day intensive program.
This program is designed for companies with defined maturity but ready to leap — if you’re just seeking a simple checklist or training course, it won’t deliver.
Here’s what the Fit Assessment helps us verify
Once we’ve confirmed fit, then we’ll talk logistics, seats, and pricing — because the price is the same 3-day program, but we only roll sessions when participants meet the criteria.
✅ Register your interest for the no-obligation Fit Assessment and find out if your organization qualifies.
ISO 45001 is the international standard for health and safety management systems—and increasingly, clients and regulators expect it.
The Fortress Safety System™ is built to align with ISO 45001 principles. In 3 days, you’ll have:
✅ Complete manual, procedures, and records aligned to the standard
✅ Your system lives in mai™ software, ready for auditor review
✅ Clear path to certification—without the usual 6-12 month delay
Not pursuing certification? The system works just as well for managing safety effectively and meeting customer requirements.
Moving from paper-based to electronic safety management delivers measurable benefits:
✅ Reduced administrative burden – Automated tracking, notifications, and reporting
✅ Faster incident response – Real-time reporting and investigation workflows
✅ Improved compliance – Centralized documentation, audit trails, and expiry tracking
✅ Better visibility – Live dashboards show compliance status across all sites
✅ Audit-ready documentation – Everything organized and accessible instantly
The mai™ platform integrates all these capabilities into one system—and you’ll learn to use it hands-on during the Academy.
“Our contractor management process has been recognised as part of a global award within Pfizer – when our clients describe our tools as ‘a complete game changer’ and ‘a no brainer’ for reducing onsite incidents and increasing productivity, it reinforces our belief that partnering closely with our clients and deeply understanding their needs leads to shared success”
We keep the class size small — just 12 participants. That way, you get direct attention, your own risks addressed, and you leave with a system that actually works for your company.

The Fortress Safety System™ is a proprietary framework by Dr. Dan Gallagher encapsulating 25+ years of experience implementing EHSQ management systems — from the original OHSAS 18001 through today’s ISO 45001 as well as ISO9001, ISO14001 and ISO22000.
Dan has worked in top-tier Seveso (high risk safety) sites and IPC-licensed (high risk environmental) facilities, bringing frontline experience from some of the most highly regulated operations.
Creator of the mai™ platform and the Fortress Safety System™, his framework has been recognized with the Pfizer Global Safety Award and is trusted by leading pharma and manufacturing companies.
His mission is simple: if this work prevents even one person from being injured, becoming ill, or worse — it has all been worth the effort.
The Academy isn’t competition — it’s leverage. We work with experienced ISO 45001 consultants to deliver the Academy.

Q: Is this just another ISO 45001 course?
No. You leave with your complete manual, trained team, and working software—not just knowledge.
Q: What if we’re not pursuing ISO 45001?
The system works either way. Many use it to manage safety effectively and meet customer requirements.
Q: How does this work with consultants?
The Academy gives you the foundation in 3 days – your complete manual, procedures, and software setup. Many companies then work with consultants for site-specific implementation work like conducting risk assessments, delivering specialized training, and preparing for certification audits. This approach is faster and more cost-effective because the framework is already in place – consultants can focus on high-value implementation rather than building templates from scratch
Q: Do you work with consultants and partners?
Absolutely. We partner with experienced ISO 45001 consultants who deliver the Academy to their clients. This model provides consultants with a proven framework to deliver efficiently while generating qualified implementation projects. Consultants typically see 3-4 clients engage for follow-on implementation work after each 3-day Academy session. Interested in partnership opportunities? [Contact us here] or email dan@ehasoft.com.
Q: What software experience needed?
None. mai™ training is included and designed for ease of use.
Q: What happens after 3 days?
You have a complete, working system and the skills to run it independently.
Q: Where will sessions be held?
Regional locations across the Ireland. Register interest to be notified.
Q: What happens to the software license after 12 months?
Your first 12 months are fully included with course registration. After that, you can choose to:
Many clients find the system valuable enough to continue with the software.
Q: Can we add more user licenses?
Yes. Each course participant receives 1 license. Additional licenses for your team are available at standard rates, with discounts for course graduates.
Sessions fill quickly — only 12 places per Academy. Register interest now to be first in line for the 2026 launch.
