Naylor Love Construction, a New Zealand-based company, was facing a significant challenge in maintaining its excellent safety record as the company expanded in size and complexity. With more employees and projects spread across various cities, the potential for accidents increased. The company had a system in place to track jobsite hazards and address them before they resulted in injury. However, the process was cumbersome and time-consuming. Workers had to obtain the right form from a job office, take them to the hazard site, record the problem, and then return to the office to file the form. This process was not only inefficient but also increased risks to coworkers, Naylor Love, and its clients, especially considering the stringent safety regulations. The company needed an automated health and safety management solution that could work at remote jobsites, enable hazards to be reported thoroughly, accurately, and quickly, and automate workflows to get hazards addressed promptly. The solution also needed to integrate with the company’s Microsoft Office 365 deployment.

Naylor Love is a construction company based in New Zealand. As the company grew in size and complexity, it faced the challenge of maintaining its excellent safety record. With more employees and projects in more cities across the country, the potential for accidents increased. The company had a system in place to track jobsite hazards and address them before they resulted in injury. However, the process was cumbersome and time-consuming, increasing risks not only to coworkers but also to Naylor Love and its clients, especially given stringent safety regulations. The company needed a solution that would enable hazards to be reported thoroughly, accurately, and quickly, and automate workflows to get hazards addressed promptly.

Naylor Love, with the help of solution provider Provoke, adopted Nintex Workflow for Office 365, Nintex Forms for Office 365, and Nintex Mobile. The Nintex Workflow Platform’s drag-and-drop design canvas and business logic were used to create a form and a simple workflow in a day, and a full prototype in a week. The final version was deployed a few weeks later, after receiving input from employees. Workers, from carpenters to site managers, can now access the Nintex digital health and safety form on their phones, making it fast and easy to report a hazard. The solution ensures consistent hazard reporting across all project sites. Incident reports are automatically directed to the appropriate manager or managers for action. Managers and executives have intuitive dashboards for real-time aggregated and trend data for analysis and decision-making, thanks to the integration with Office 365 and Power BI.

• The implementation of the Nintex platform has significantly improved the safety management process at Naylor Love. Workers can now report hazards quickly and accurately using their mobile devices, ensuring that no safety issue goes unnoticed. The automated workflows ensure that reported hazards are addressed promptly, reducing the risk of accidents. The solution's integration with Office 365 has also allowed Naylor Love to leverage its existing resources effectively. Managers and executives now have access to intuitive dashboards that provide real-time aggregated and trend data, aiding in informed decision-making. The solution has not only improved safety management but also increased operational efficiency.
