VIRTUAL HELPDESK

The Golden Thread Made Clear, Secure & Auditable

Protect your buildings with a clear, auditable Golden Thread of information.

Virtual Helpdesk provides a cloud-based Golden Thread solution that maintains accurate, up-to-date safety, compliance and maintenance records across the full lifecycle of every building and asset. All critical information is structured, secure and instantly accessible — supporting accountability, transparency and regulatory compliance with confidence.

Take Control of the Golden Thread Without Complexity

Capture. Control. Assure.

Maintaining a compliant Golden Thread across buildings, assets, teams and contractors is challenging — particularly when data is fragmented, outdated or stored across multiple systems.

Virtual Helpdesk provides a single, secure platform that brings together building information, asset data, safety records and maintenance activity into one clear Golden Thread — giving duty holders confidence that information is complete, current and auditable at all times.

The Problem.

Q

Poor Control of Safety & Compliance Information

Without a structured Golden Thread, organisations face serious regulatory, operational and safety risks.

The Challenges:

  • Fragmented building and asset records held across systems
  • Incomplete or outdated safety and compliance information
  • Limited audit trails and unclear accountability
  • Difficulty demonstrating compliance with the Building Safety Act
  • Increased risk to occupants, assets and reputation

When information cannot be trusted or easily accessed, compliance becomes reactive — and assurance is weakened.

    The Solution.
