If your organisation runs on Microsoft Teams — and most UK businesses do at this point — there’s a question worth asking: when something happens on site, how quickly does the right person find out?
Not the person sitting at the front desk. The right person. The facilities manager three floors up. The H&S lead who’s on a call. The operations director who’s off-site today.
That’s the problem TPR’s new Teams integration is designed to solve.

What it actually does
TPR now connects directly to your Microsoft Teams channels via webhook. When certain events happen on site, a notification lands in Teams immediately — no email to miss, no login required, no delay.
You choose which notifications fire to which channels. The options include:
Visitor arrival — a notification posts to your nominated channel the moment someone signs in. Useful for receptions and facilities teams who don’t sit at the desk all day.
Evacuation alert — the moment someone activates an evacuation in TPR, every configured channel gets notified. Fire marshals on their phones, managers on Teams desktop, all at once.
RIDDOR incidents — if a reportable injury or dangerous occurrence is logged, the right people are notified immediately. No more finding out about a RIDDOR incident three days after it happened.
Compliance dashboard going red — if your overall compliance score drops below the threshold, you’ll see it in Teams before you’d ever spot it in the platform.
Document or certificate expiry — contractor insurance expiring next week? Teams can flag it before it becomes a problem.
You can set up multiple webhooks pointing to different channels. So your “evacuation alerts” go to the fire marshal channel, while “contractor compliance” notifications go to the FM team’s channel.

Why this matters
The honest answer is that email doesn’t work for urgent safety information. People are in meetings. Inboxes are full. The notification sits unread for 40 minutes.
Teams is where most organisations are already working. It’s open all day. Notifications surface. Getting safety-critical alerts into Teams means they get seen — which is the entire point.
It also closes a gap that most site management platforms have: they hold the data, but the data stays trapped in the platform until someone logs in to look at it. The Teams integration changes that. TPR starts pushing information out to you, rather than waiting for you to come looking.

Who should be using this
If your team is already on Microsoft 365 and you manage a site with contractors, visitors, or staff coming and going, this integration is worth switching on today.
It takes a few minutes to configure — you paste a webhook URL from Teams into TPR’s settings, choose which notification types you want, and test the connection. Done.
There’s no additional cost. It’s part of the platform.
