Improve Safety and Labor Productivity on Construction Worksites

Construction sites are dynamic, fast-paced, and filled with safety risks. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the construction industry accounted for half of the ten most frequently violated general safety standards in recent years. Spot-r eases the burden by delivering unparalleled visibility and insights into the many moving parts of a construction business. Our technology uses sophisticated data capture and analytics, empowering leaders to optimize resources, mitigate safety risks, and improve project management.

What Is Construction Safety Management?

Construction safety management includes all the processes that proactively identify hazards to improve job site safety. The focus of the Spot-r technology for construction sites is to keep workers safe and efficient, saving you time and money. Our construction safety management framework includes processes for monitoring the job site to detect mishaps, verifying that workers follow safety protocols, and knowing when additional training is required. Our software also improves labor productivity by automating many operations, such as employee check-in and check-out, evacuation protocols, and time on tool tracking.

Four key benefits of RTLS in Construction Site Management:

Customized Safety Policies

Leveraging construction sites with the Spot-r solution gives you complete visibility into your jobsite operations, day and night. Optimize your labor productivity and make sure every resource is utilized with real-time equipment monitoring that tracks worker movement, equipment utilization, and equipment movement.

Our construction solution offers fast hazard identification, risk assessment, and risk mitigation, such as two-way alerts between on-site workers and off-site managers. The zone-based monitoring system can also be used to accommodate legal risks involved with unauthorized personnel.

Real-Time Accident Notifications

Construction sites are dangerous environments. Another benefit in construction safety management is the instantaneous fall detection technology embedded in each wearable used by your onsite contractors. The Spot-r connected worker fall detection system notes any dangerous slips, falls, or other accidents as they happen – and automatically alerts a manager about the risk, whether a worker manually reports an injury or if the wearable device has detected a potential fall.

In the case of an emergency, the Spot-r software makes it easy to quickly dispatch and share data with first responders. These features are invaluable for preventing injuries on loud construction sites where accidents may go unnoticed by others.

24/7 Equipment Tracking

Equipment monitoring on a construction site is two-fold: it should be a part of your construction safety management protocol to ensure that only authorized workers operate certain pieces of equipment. But it’s also a reliable way to monitor equipment costs due underused machinery, tools, and equipment, as well as theft and vandalism.

The Spot-r platform gives you 24/7, synchronous monitoring of your entire fleet of machinery and large pieces of equipment. Site supervisors can then use this information to improve equipment utilization and operate their site at the fullest capacity possible.

Risk and Emergency Management

Spot-r makes it easy to evaluate all on-site protocols and quickly adapt to any new company, industry, or regulatory changes. The visibility offered is essential for sites where equipment, conditions, and work crews change throughout the project.

In the case of an injury or other on-site emergency, our solutions offer automated and instantaneous sitewide evacuation and muster technology. Supervisors can now feel confident that they will be able to quickly and safely respond to hazardous situations.

Why Construction Needs Productivity & Safety Management Software

Construction sites need real-time data to manage contractors, equipment, materials, budgets, and timelines safely. The Spot-r suite helps teams capture accurate site data and improve productivity & safety.

Labor Forecasting

Construction labor productivity software gives supervisors data points such as worker time on site and time on tools. Understanding the actual productive labor hours performed each day gives them the ability to accurately forecast the time needed to reach project completion.

Equipment Management

Many construction sites manage a fleet of rental equipment on each site. By understanding the amount of productive uptime each piece of equipment experiences, site managers able to accurately predict rental times and control costs.

Contractors Globally Rely on us for their Construction Sites

Spot-r construction safety management software enhances worker safety through wearable location tracking technology that alerts managers if workers approach unsafe zones or areas for which they are not qualified.

How to Protect Workers and Prevent Accidents in Construction Sites?

Our construction safety management software provides comprehensive real-time insights to help complex construction sites run safely. Spot-r supports your mission to send your workers home safely each day with:

Free Fall Detection Capabilities

Our software works in conjunction with wearables that are affixed to a worker’s hard hat or on their body. These devices instantly send an alert if the worker falls or is injured.

Contractor Authorization Monitoring

According to data, an average of 46% of the time contractors bill for is spent in zones where they don’t have the proper certifications to do the work they’re contracted to do. Worker authorization monitoring tracks an individual’s proximity to equipment and sends an alert to management if they don’t have the proper, up-to-date certification or safety training needed.

Sitewide Evacuation Systems

Supervisors can initiate an alarm via the Spot-r two-way alert system. If an accident has been detected or the alarm has been manually triggered, each worker’s wearable will emit an emergency alarm and supervisors can quickly monitor worker headcount to ensure everyone reaches safety.

Let Us Help You Implement a Scalable Construction Safety Software

The Spot-r suite is an easy-to-implement software solution, built to meet the demands of a growing construction operation, while staying simple enough for managers to intuitively understand.
