Sherm by industry
HSEQ Management Software for Agriculture, Aquaculture & Environmental Operations
Connect people, production and operational risk across diverse environments.
Agriculture, aquaculture and environmental operations take place across farms, production facilities, vessels, waterways, workshops, field locations and geographically dispersed sites.
Intelligent operational guidance with defensible oversight.
People work with plant, equipment, animals, biological systems and changing environmental conditions, often a long way from central management.
Sherm connects risk, incidents, inspections, plant and equipment, training and competency, controlled documents, contractors and corrective actions within one HSEQ environment, giving local teams practical ways to participate and management broader visibility.
HSEQ Management Across Diverse Operational Environments
Primary production and environmental operations rarely fit neatly within one workplace. People may operate machinery, travel between sites, work around water, maintain infrastructure or undertake field activities in changing weather and environmental conditions.
The operational challenge is maintaining connections between people, sites, production, plant and equipment, environment, risk, competency and information. Sherm provides one HSEQ environment for the records and processes surrounding those activities.

Connect People, Production and the Environment
Agriculture and aquaculture operations depend on interconnected systems. A production change can affect people, equipment and risk. Environmental conditions can change how work is performed. An inspection may identify an issue; an incident may require investigation and corrective action.
Managing each record separately makes it harder to understand the operational picture. Sherm helps connect the HSEQ information surrounding the operation, not just individual records.
Production activity or change
Consider the people, plant, location and environment involved.
Review requirements
Connect risk, competency and procedures to the work.
Act and document
Maintain actions, supporting evidence, review and oversight in Sherm.
HSEQ Management That Travels With Your Workforce
Agriculture, aquaculture and environmental workers are often away from a desk. Sherm's mobile application can give workers access to relevant HSEQ activities from farms, facilities and field locations.
Depending on configuration and access, this may include hazards, incidents, issues, inspections, documents, safety data sheets, training, competency, licences and certificates.
Built for Aquaculture Operations
Aquaculture businesses may combine production facilities, vessels, workshops, equipment, laboratories, offices and remote locations within one organisation.
As operations expand, they need consistent HSEQ processes without removing responsibility from local teams. Sherm can be configured around sites, departments, positions, people and operational requirements, creating a common framework with broader organisational visibility.
Local operations
Each site or region maintains responsibility for its work and records.
Common HSEQ framework
Keep relevant information and processes connected across the organisation.
Management visibility
Authorised leaders review recorded activity across locations.
Maintain Visibility of Plant and Equipment
Agriculture, aquaculture and environmental operations may rely on vehicles, mobile plant, machinery, vessels, pumps, processing equipment and specialist field equipment.
Sherm's Plant & Equipment capability provides a structured environment for relevant plant information alongside inspections, risk, incidents, documents and operational records.
Inspect
Capture equipment condition and any issue.
Assess and act
Review the risk and assign the appropriate response.
Verify and oversee
Keep evidence of follow-up visible beyond the inspection.
Manage Risk as Conditions Change
Weather, terrain, water, seasonal work, animals, machinery, chemicals, remote locations and interactions between people and equipment can influence how work is performed.
Sherm's Hazard & Risk Management capabilities provide a structured environment for identifying hazards, assessing risk, recording controls and reviewing relevant information within the wider HSEQ system.
Explore Risk ManagementKnow Your Workforce Has the Capability Required
Primary production and environmental work can require different skills, licences, qualifications, training and demonstrated competency across positions, activities and locations.
Sherm's Training & Competency capabilities help maintain those records. Where configured, MyCAT gives individuals access to relevant information while authorised managers review broader workforce requirements.
Explore Training & CompetencySupport Environmental Responsibility Alongside Safety
Environmental field activities can involve land, vegetation, waterways, chemicals, waste, equipment and sensitive areas. Organisations may need to record environmental hazards, issues, inspections, actions and supporting information alongside health, safety and quality processes.
According to configuration, Sherm can support environmental hazards, incidents or issues, inspections, risk assessments, corrective actions, controlled documents, audits and supporting records. Specialist environmental monitoring and technical interpretation require appropriate separate tools and expertise.
Keep Controlled Information Accessible
Workers across dispersed locations may need procedures, work instructions, emergency and chemical information, forms and other controlled documents.
Sherm's Documentation capability can manage revision, distribution and acknowledgement requirements according to configuration, helping relevant information remain connected to the wider HSEQ system.
Explore Document ManagementMake Authoritative Guidance Easier to Access
Agriculture, aquaculture and environmental operations may need information from workplace regulators, environmental authorities, industry bodies and specialist sources.
Sherm Resources enables organisations to make selected authoritative and organisational information accessible alongside HSEQ activities. Depending on the operation, this could include agricultural safety, plant, chemicals, remote work, environmental management, emergency preparedness and risk guidance.
Explore Sherm ResourcesFrom Local Operations to Organisation-Wide Oversight
Dispersed organisations need local teams to own what happens at their sites, while leadership needs enough consistency to understand the wider picture. Sherm helps connect those requirements.
Participate
Workers report, inspect and access relevant information.
Manage locally
Supervisors and local managers review operational HSEQ activity.
Act
Responsibilities and actions are assigned and progressed.
Verify
Records provide evidence of what was considered and completed.
Oversee
Regional and organisational leaders review activity across sites.
Built for One Site or Global Operations
Sherm can support an organisation operating from one facility or across sites, departments and teams in multiple regions or countries.
Its structure can reflect local responsibilities within a common HSEQ environment. Each operation remains responsible for its applicable requirements and for the quality of information it maintains.

Step inside Sherm and see how risk, incidents, inspections, plant and equipment, documents, training and competency, contractors and corrective actions can come together within one HSEQ environment.
More Than Farm Safety Software
Sherm is an integrated Health, Safety, Environment and Quality management platform that can sit alongside farm, production, aquaculture and environmental monitoring systems.
Keep specialist systems focused on their specialist work. Use Sherm to connect HSEQ information surrounding how the operation is managed; it does not manage crops, livestock, feeding or production monitoring.
