RISK-Project: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

RISK-Project is web-based occupational health and safety software from RMS GmbH in Remscheid. It supports risk assessments with a hazard catalogue and measures management, hazardous substance management, operating instructions, safety training for employees and the management of the occupational safety organisation. Additional modules cover maintenance and inspection of machinery (Servo), e-learning, audits with a first-aid logbook, contractor management and a legal compliance module. Documents are archived so that they can serve as evidence for supervisory authorities. The software is aimed at companies in all sectors.

RISK-Project is a cloud service; according to the vendor, documents are stored in a data-protection-compliant cloud. The pages reviewed do not say where that cloud is located. Ask about this and have the data processing agreement confirmed before you enter employee or site data. RMS is a German company based in Remscheid, and no group or foreign parent company is stated. A self-hosting option is not mentioned.

Why digital sovereignty matters with RISK-Project

RISK-Project is headquartered in DE and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so RISK-Project scores best on data residency.

RISK-Project is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs RISK-Project together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
