have one thing in common: complete buy-in from the top down that a safe worksite leads to a more productive worksite.
on when engaging with a digital worksite partner: experience, operational and financial flexibility, scalability, speed of deployment and accessibility.
Most importantly, a digital worksite partner must have extensive experience in your respective trade and vertical. It’s ideal if the team has worked in the industry before, so they understand the obstacles you face. This experience will ensure you have proper counsel when incorporating data-driven practices, anticipating challenges and recommending the appropriate solutions.
Secondly, a partner must have the flexibility to work within your budget. The modern digital worksite technologies are adaptable and scalable in nature. Whether you can afford full- time support where professionals help you stand up systems and provide training daily, or you prefer occasional assistance and check-ins, the right digital worksite solution is scalable both operationally and financially—supporting worksites of any size.
Some of the greatest benefits to digital worksite deployment is its speed of deployment, robust communications, accessibility and ease of use. When engaging a technology partner, look for capabilities and platforms that enable you to review real-time and historical worksite data in a simple, intuitive and visual way. This provides the visibility needed to always have an eye on your workforce and to identify leading indicators and trends of threat to your people. It also centralizes data that allows for real-time incident response and fleet management.
The digital worksite is the present and future of workplace safety. When executed correctly, it helps further align HSE and operations, enhancing worker safety and confidence while maintaining and often improving productivity. By identifying your goals, challenges, KPIs and the right partner, organizations can begin identifying unknown risks, prioritizing initiatives and implementing improvements in a matter of weeks.
