Case Study: Colonial Pipeline Company achieves data-driven safety and a 900% increase in safety observations with Enablon

Turning Data Into Information & Insight

Colonial Pipeline, the largest refined‑products pipeline in the U.S. serving more than 50 million people across 5,500 miles and 14 states, needed to move beyond paper and homegrown tools to turn raw data into actionable insight to improve safety and operational efficiency while reinforcing a safety‑first culture.

By deploying Enablon’s incident management, inspections, compliance, action‑plan and mobile modules plus real‑time dashboards and configurable forms, Colonial increased safety observations by 900% and more than doubled near‑miss reporting (2017–2019), enabling risk‑based decisions, better process optimization, stronger safety performance and faster adoption of digital workflows.
