Highwire’s AI-powered safety analytics enhance contractor assessments, foster collaboration, and drive improved safety standards in construction projects.
Highwire, the contractor success platform for capital project construction and operations, has introduced advanced safety risk analytics powered by artificial intelligence. These new capabilities offer deep insights into contractor safety risks by analyzing safety documentation through AI, enabling a more accurate and sophisticated contractor assessment. This advancement marks a significant step forward in the management of contractor safety risks.
Enhanced analytics from Highwire are aimed at breaking free from the old conception of just pass/fail assessments on contractors. It reflects Highwire's commitment to nurturing collaboration and continuous improvement in contractor safety. The more clients are supposed to understand the quality and context of contractors' safety programs with new AI-driven insights, thereby better-informed decision making. This is very important for an industry characterized by a labor shortage where the owners and the general contractors cannot afford to disqualify contractors based only on past performances. They instead need to engage contractors in working to improve their safety standards.
Don Fornes, Chairman and CEO of Highwire, said that the new safety analytics are something other than just assessing risk. "It's about Contractor Success—fostering collaboration that drives continuous improvement in construction safety," said Fornes. "By offering insightful feedback on safety programs and management systems, we enable companies to improve safety standards, build stronger partnerships, and increase the pool of qualified contractors."
Advanced analytics of Highwire provide proactive identification of risk so mitigation strategies can be deployed even before the work commences. Its AI tools automate reviews of safety documents, thereby saving companies immense amounts of time and resources and assuring them that safety programs adhere to rigorous standards. In fact, it's not just a case of risk identification but rather giving EHS professionals freedom from administrational burdens to actually address the risk they are supposed to identify.
Finally, Highwire's technology caters to the needs of all employees of large companies with sound safety programs and small contractors with inferior documentation-to progressively enhance and stay ahead in competition.
