Overview

A safety intelligence platform built for construction companies to monitor site activity, analyze safety incidents, and make informed decisions through structured reporting and AI-driven insights.

Problem

  1. Limited visibility across sitesSafety data is scattered across reports, messages, and manual processes, making it difficult for decision-makers to maintain a clear, real-time understanding of what's happening on site.
  2. Reactive instead of proactive safety managementIncidents are often handled after they occur, without a structured system to identify patterns, track severity, or prevent recurrence.
  3. Complex roles with inconsistent access to informationDifferent stakeholders - from site managers to executives - require different levels of insight, yet existing tools fail to provide clear, role-based visibility and control.

Solution

A centralized platform that aggregates incident data, AI detections, and site activity into structured, role-based reports — enabling stakeholders to monitor safety performance, identify patterns, and make faster, more informed decisions across all sites.

Personas

Project manager on a construction site

George Site Level

Who he is

A site-level project manager responsible for daily construction operations, coordinating teams, and ensuring work progresses safely and on schedule. He works under constant pressure, balancing execution with safety requirements in a fast-moving environment.

Key Frictions

  • Limited visibility into real-time safety issues across the site
  • Safety data is fragmented across reports, making it hard to act quickly
  • High responsibility with little structured support for decision-making

What he needs

Clear, actionable safety insights that help him understand what requires attention right now, so he can respond quickly without slowing down site operations.

Behavior Profile

Operational, reactive, and action-driven. relies on quick understanding rather than deep analysis.

John Executive Level

Who he is

An executive responsible for safety strategy across multiple sites, focused on reducing incidents, ensuring compliance, and improving long-term safety performance.

Key Frictions

  • Lack of structured visibility across multiple sites and teams
  • Difficulty identifying patterns and recurring safety risks
  • Reliance on delayed or inconsistent reporting

What he needs

A high-level, reliable view of safety performance across sites, with the ability to identify trends, monitor risks, and make informed strategic decisions.

Behavior Profile

Strategic and analytical. focused on patterns, long-term impact, and proactive risk reduction.

System Thinking

A system designed to translate on-site safety activity into structured, actionable insights across different organizational levels. From real-time detection on site to aggregated reporting at the management level, the platform connects data, roles, and decision-making into one continuous flow.

Core Structure

  • Multi-level access - Site-level users focus on immediate issues, while executives monitor trends and performance across sites
  • Data-driven flow - AI detections, incidents, and reports are structured into clear, trackable safety insights
  • Centralized visibility - All safety activity is aggregated into a unified system, reducing fragmentation and improving response time

Product Positioning

While existing safety management systems focus on real-time alerts and manual event tracking, they often lack advanced analytics, integration capabilities, and meaningful data visualization.

This project explores a more proactive approach — combining AI-based detection, structured reporting, and clear visual insights to support both operational and strategic decision-making.

From reactive safety management to proactive, insight-driven decision making.

User Interface

A clear, structured interface designed to support safety monitoring, decision-making, and daily operations across different roles.

Onboarding

Initialize Access

Sign-in supports email, phone verification, and SSO (e.g. Microsoft) so access stays secure and flexible for different users.

Site-level users land in their assigned site context; executives enter a system-wide view without a fixed site. A short setup captures profile and role, then users can invite teammates, take a quick tour, or open account settings.

Site Association

Role-Based Invitation

Users are assigned to specific sites based on their role, ensuring access to the right data and operational context.

Site-level users are connected to a defined environment, while higher-level roles maintain a broader view across multiple sites without a fixed association.

User Management

Control Access & Roles

Manage users across the organization with clear role definitions, access levels, and site associations.

The system provides full visibility into user status, activity, and permissions, allowing teams to invite new members, track onboarding progress, and ensure the right people have access to the right data.

System Configuration

Organization details, Branding & Notifications

Additional settings support the overall system structure and experience — from defining organization details and authentication methods, to managing branding assets and controlling notification preferences.

Together, these elements ensure consistency, security, and clarity across all users and sites.

Dashboard Approach

Designing for Clarity in a Complex System

A system designed to translate complex safety data into clear, actionable insights - tailored to different user levels while encouraging engagement, awareness, and accountability.

Dual-Level Experience

Different roles require different perspectives. Executives receive a broad, comparative overview across sites, while site-level users focus on operational insights and immediate actions within a specific environment.

Modular Widget System

A flexible widget-based structure allows the dashboard to adapt to different roles, use cases, and future needs - enabling scalability without redesigning the system.

Engagement Through Design

Safety is often perceived as a secondary concern. The interface introduces clarity, visual feedback, and a sense of progress to encourage ongoing engagement and promote a culture of accountability.

Dashboard

Operational Awareness, Reimagined

The dashboard presents real-time and historical safety data through a structured yet flexible layout.

By combining key metrics, alerts, and contextual insights, it enables both executives and site teams to quickly understand the current state, identify risks, and take action.

User-Level Adaptation

Tailored Views for Different Roles

Two distinct layouts support different decision-making needs.

The executive view focuses on cross-site visibility and trends over time, with global filters and comparisons. The site-level view provides a more focused perspective, highlighting real-time activity, operational metrics, and immediate risks within a specific site.

Widget Deep Dive

Focused Widgets, Actionable Decisions

Live Incident

Immediate Visibility When It Matters Most

A dedicated real-time widget appears dynamically during active incidents, providing a shared operational view across roles. It structures the event into three measurable stages - response, handling, and closure - enabling clear tracking, accountability, and post-event analysis.

Insights

Key Findings

Actionable insights derived from aggregated data highlight where attention is needed most. Whether at the company or site level, these findings guide decision-making, reinforce safety priorities, and help define actionable goals.

Risk Detection

High-Risk Workers

Identifies workers with recurring safety issues, allowing site teams to address risks at an individual level. This helps prevent negative behavioral patterns from spreading and supports targeted interventions before issues escalate.

Optimization

Suggested Patrol Time

Analyzes incident patterns to recommend optimal patrol times. This allows safety managers to align their presence with peak risk periods, improving efficiency and increasing the impact of on-site supervision.

Spatial Awareness

Company Sites Map

A visual overview of all company sites, displaying their current status through clear state indicators - closed, active, or with live incidents. This provides leadership with an immediate understanding of operational conditions across locations.

INCIDENTS

A Visual Record of Safety Events

A structured, filterable gallery that centralizes all recorded incidents in one place.

By combining visual evidence with clear categorization and search tools, users can quickly scan, review, and access relevant events without disrupting their workflow.
