Could the Secret to Increasing Safety be Eliminating Complacency?
Mobility Platform “Mobideo” shows that by going digital, companies can increase safety
According to an article from Forbes, going digital may be the secret to increasing worker safety, as mobile technology company Mobideo has shown.
Mobideo provides situational awareness of critical operations in real-time to chemical, oil, gas, aerospace, defense and other industries. The company uses technology to harness system integration, business process management and enterprise content management.
According to the Forbes article, Mobideo focuses on a handful of key objectives when assisting their customers, which include increasing mobile access to information, ensuring compliance with protocols, increasing visibility of activity status and building collaboration through information.
Mobideo aims to save lives by providing managers with real-time data that can ensure their employees are working safely and correctly. By making things digital, time isn’t wasted on paper checklists, time-consuming complacency steps and other outdated systems for ensuring safety, which are prone to errors. With real-time data, business owners can better maintain their safe workforce while also ensuring the correct protocol is being taken.
The digitized process increases safety not only through streamlined, more effective processes, but also through mobile apps that are easy-to-use and intuitive. Forbes gives the following example: if a user has to enter a measurement for tension and that entry is out of the normal range, information is captured in real-time and analytics then alert the user, notify the manager and allow for customized comments on the situation. Mangers can also use the mobile platform to compare past performances to current ones and predict delays and bottlenecks.
