● A WORD FROM OUR FOUNDER

In 12 years building Learning Management Systems I’ve talked to thousands of learning businesses, a fair few in construction, aviation and the trades. I can usually tell what’s holding one back within minutes. It’s nearly always one of three things.

Thin records

A lot of platforms log a completion and a score, and that’s about it. When something goes wrong on site, an investigator wants more: what was assessed, by whom, on what date, and whether the practical part happened at all. If those sign-offs live on a clipboard, the record has a hole right where it matters.

Low uptake

Your learners aren’t at a desk. They’ve got five or ten minutes in the van on a coffee break, on a phone. If the platform assumes a laptop, a second login for certificates and things like that, the optional stuff doesn’t get done.

Punished scale

Ten thousand users is normal, the next thirty thousand are often sitting with customers you already have, and per-seat pricing bills you for every one. Then the tech: a build carrying eighteen months of debt, a team that can’t keep pace, and the worry it buckles under a rollout.

They all come back to the same thing: the platform wasn’t built for the job site or the headcount. The fix, I think, is owning the LMS outright and building it around how your program actually runs. Explore your options and talk it through with me.

Engineered for longevity, tested under load

An outage mid-rollout costs customers and credibility, and a record that can’t be produced costs more. We build for launch-day load and for records you’ll need years later.

Proven foundations

We build on thousands of components already hardened across real platforms: course flows, assessments, certificates, dashboards, tenant management. The foundation is stable on day one, and your budget goes on the parts specific to your program.

Designed so crews keep coming back

Beyond the mandatory core, frontline training is optional and done on a phone between tasks. We design for that: short modules, visible progress, and gamification that gets the next one opened.

One system of record for training

Clients usually arrive with systems that don’t talk to each other. We connect them, or build it as one.

One record per worker: completions, practical sign-offs and certificates in one place, so a safety manager answers an investigator or insurer from one screen

One login for the crew: training, certificates and progress under one login and one brand, on their own phone, so the next module is a tap away

Bend it around your stack: connects to your HR system, membership database or the other products you sell, through documented APIs your engineers can build against

One source of truth: one reporting layer across every tenant, so the figures you send a customer match what they pull themselves

Frequently asked questions

Can't see your question? Explore your options and we'll talk it through.

Who owns the code of a custom safety training LMS, and can our engineers work in it?

You own every line of custom code we write for you, outright. The platform runs on Plume’s foundation, which you hold under a perpetual license covering unlimited users, so the fee stays the same as your headcount grows. Your engineers get documented APIs and webhooks from the start, which is how your other products exchange data with the training platform. When you want it in-house, we fork your implementation, hand over the source with the documentation, and walk your developers through it. You can self-host from day one or let us run it. Either way, you’re never locked in.

How does Plume work alongside an in-house development team that owns other products?

Your team keeps building your products while we build the training platform, and the two meet at documented APIs, webhooks and a data model agreed in the Blueprint. We walk your engineers through the architecture early, so single sign-on, reporting feeds and the integrations your other products rely on are designed in from the start. A client put it well: ‘we’ll need to understand your code quite well, because our other products will communicate with it.’ That is what the Blueprint is for. When you take the platform in-house, your developers get a full handover, and ours stay available afterwards.

Does a custom LMS hold up under load?

Yes, because it is designed for your projected headcount before a line of code is written. Load testing is part of every build, and we’ve tested to 100,000 users. We’ve designed platforms for over a million learners, including one built for Google that serves a million teachers across a dozen countries. Architecture, caching and hosting are sized to your rollout plan, with headroom for the next tranche of customers. Ten thousand workers across a few hundred companies is well inside what the foundation already handles.

How do you answer our enterprise customers’ security questionnaires and tenant isolation questions?

Every platform is built and hosted to SOC 2 and ISO 27001 control standards, with tenant isolation tested, an audit trail, role-based access, single sign-on, multi-factor authentication and encryption built in. Security documentation and questionnaire support are included, so when a customer’s procurement team sends the spreadsheet, you have the answers.

Can an LMS record on-the-job sign-offs and practical assessments?

Yes, when it’s built for it. A supervisor opens the learner’s record on a phone at the job site, works through the checklist, and signs it off with their name, the date and the location attached. That sign-off sits in the same audit trail as the online modules, so an investigator or insurer sees one worker’s whole record in one place: what they studied, what they were assessed doing, who assessed them and when. Expiry dates and recurring assessments are driven from the same record, so renewals are flagged before a certificate lapses.

What does a custom LMS cost compared with per-seat pricing for 10,000 workers?

A custom LMS from Plume is a one-time fee, sized to whether you need a single program or a multi-tenant platform, payable upfront or over three years, covering unlimited users. To compare it with per-seat pricing, multiply your per-seat rate by ten thousand workers and five years, then add the next thirty thousand waiting at the same customers. At frontline volumes that sum often passes the cost of a build before year three, and it climbs with every worker you add. The Blueprint fixes the exact number for your scope before anyone commits to anything larger.

Can we migrate from our current LMS without losing training records or features?

Yes, because migration is planned in the Blueprint: we map every feature your customers rely on, certifications included, against the new build, so nothing goes live without an equivalent. Learner histories, certificates, expiry dates and video content move across and are checked record by record before cutover. The switch can be phased by customer or region, so a worker finishes a module on the old system on Friday and finds it marked complete on the new one on Monday.

How do you track certification expiry and renewals across hundreds of member companies?

We build each certification as a record against a worker and their company, so expiry is tracked at both levels. Reminders go to the worker, supervisor and company administrator, and recurring training is assigned automatically when a renewal falls due. Company administrators manage their people and org structure in their portal, and reporting shows who is current, lapsing or lapsed, per company or program-wide. It’s what we’re building for a 30-year aviation trade association running safety training for around 600 member companies and 10,000 users.
