Case Study: Hoosier Energy increases safety compliance with Benchmark Gensuite

Hoosier Energy Powers Safety Compliance with Digital JSA Software

Hoosier Energy, which serves 18 member distribution cooperatives across Indiana and Illinois, needed a better way to manage safety compliance for its substation and meter relay teams. Before working with Benchmark Gensuite, the company completed Job Safety Assessments on paper and relied on monthly collection of forms and an honor system to confirm that hazards were mitigated and PPE and permissions were in place.

Benchmark Gensuite helped Hoosier Energy move to a custom digital JSA workflow with worksite photos, eSignatures, and Live Line Releases. Teams can now complete JSAs on smartphones, and supervisors can monitor real-time safety reports; in the first month, Hoosier Energy reported a 480% increase in completed Job Safety Assessments and gained better data integrity, faster reporting, and clearer visibility into trending hazards.
