Introduction
We pride ourselves on delivering innovative solutions that streamline workflows, save money, and improve efficiency. Recently, we had the opportunity to work on a construction project where our expertise in automation and digital transformation made a significant impact on the safety team's operations.
The Challenge: Out with the old, in with the new form
The safety team faced a cumbersome process for managing personal protective equipment (PPE) for new and existing employees. They relied on paper forms, which were manually entered into a register, resulting in outdated records, wasted time, and environmental inefficiency.
Additionally, the project was incurring costs in the thousands on uniforms, with no effective way to track repeat offenders or uniform usage per employee.
The Solution: Digital form, register, tracking and more!
To address these challenges, we developed two Microsoft Forms and automated the data handling using Power Automate. This digital transformation allowed for the seamless collection, cleaning, and organization of PPE data.
We integrated the form link into the welcome emails for new starters, enabling them to pre-order uniforms, thus enhancing their onboarding experience.
How We Made a Difference:
Eliminated Manual Data Entry:
By automating the PPE data collection process, we significantly reduced the time and effort required for manual data entry.
Real-time Data Accuracy:
Our solution provided the safety team with accurate, up-to-date data, improving their ability to manage uniform distribution effectively.
Improved Tracking and Oversight:
The automated system made it easy to track uniform usage and identify repeat offenders, enhancing resource management.
Enhanced User Experience:
Integrating the form link into welcome emails streamlined the onboarding process, allowing new employees to organize their uniforms ahead of time.
The Impact: One small step for m…
Our solution led to substantial cost savings and improved efficiency. The automated system not only reduced the monthly uniform expenditure but also provided a clear, organized register of uniform allocations. This allowed for better oversight and resource management, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable and productive project environment.
In Conclusion:
At AMM, we are dedicated to helping our clients overcome operational challenges through innovative IT solutions. Our recent project with the construction safety team is a testament to how digital transformation can save money, improve workflows, and enhance user experience.
