A HCSS Case Study
Millstone Weber, a heavy civil contractor, faced significant safety management challenges as the company expanded geographically. Their manual, paper-based system for tracking inspections, training, and certifications became inefficient and difficult to manage across multiple distant job sites. The Vice President of Safety, Eric Waterkotte, knew he needed to switch to a digital solution but had procrastinated due to a fear of overwhelming his team with complex new technology.
The company implemented safety software from HCSS to centralize and automate its safety processes. The HCSS solution provided an easy-to-use system for field foremen to conduct toolbox talks and inspections, QR codes for instantly verifying worker certifications, and automated analytics to identify trends and risks. The results included time savings of at least 10 minutes per daily huddle for field crews, a drastic reduction in administrative hours, and greatly improved compliance and risk management. Millstone Weber's leadership expressed that their only regret was not adopting the HCSS software sooner.
