Heembouw and Aboma: Construction Safety with Capptions

July 7, 2026

Construction safety depends on catching unsafe conditions before they cause harm, and doing that consistently, across every site, every day. Heembouw's partnership with Aboma shows what that looks like when it's built on a digital foundation instead of paper.

About Heembouw and Aboma

Heembouw is a leading design and construction company specializing in office buildings and residential projects. Safety, quality, and planning sit at the center of how they manage their construction sites day to day.

Aboma is an advisory agency specializing in construction safety and vertical transport. Together, Heembouw and Aboma built the Aboma Check App on the Capptions platform, a collaboration aimed at conducting 3000 inspections annually.

The Challenge

Managing safety effectively across active construction sites is a constant challenge in the industry. Heembouw needed a tool that could integrate safety reporting directly into their daily workflow, not as a separate administrative task, but as part of how the work actually happens.

How Capptions Supported the Partnership

The Aboma Check App, built on Capptions, gives Heembouw workplace inspections and safety observations structured around Aboma's own methodology. A few things stand out:

  • A purpose-built solution: the app enables inspections and observations based on Aboma's established safety methodology, not a generic template.
  • Data-driven insight: Heembouw gets clear visibility into unsafe situations across sites, so issues can be identified and corrected faster.
  • Room to grow: there are plans to expand the app's use into broader, more comprehensive workplace inspections.

Impact and What's Next

The Heembouw, Aboma, and Capptions partnership is a clear example of what digital tools can do for construction safety management:

  • Stronger inspection protocols: safety inspections run more effectively and efficiently.
  • Proactive safety management: Heembouw can address safety concerns as they arise, rather than after the fact.
  • Room to scale: the app's use case can expand over time, reflecting a long-term commitment to safety rather than a one-off project.

Heembouw and Aboma's work with Capptions is a useful reference point for EHS managers and industry leaders thinking about how digital inspection tools translate into safer, more efficient construction sites. Similar principles apply for companies managing higher-risk facilities, including those classified under the EU Seveso III Directive (2012/18/EU), where structured, methodology-driven inspections aren't just good practice, they're a regulatory expectation.
