Case Study: Harvey Building Products achieves 31% fewer reportable safety incidents and 70% reduction in lost time with Quickbase

Leveraging Technology to Keep Companies EHS Compliant and Mitigate Risk

Harvey Building Products, a manufacturer of windows, doors and building products with 2,400 employees across seven manufacturing sites and 50 distribution centers, faced an outdated, rigid EHS system that left records siloed, made OSHA compliance time-consuming, and drove high incident rates and workers’ compensation costs. EHS Director Frank Matyoka needed a single, flexible solution to gain visibility, standardize processes and reduce risk.

Matyoka implemented Quick Base to centralize EHS data, build apps for incident reporting, audits, job hazard assessments and a compliance calendar, and automate OSHA-templated forms. The result: a 31% drop in reportable incidents, a 70% reduction in lost-time days, an estimated $300,000–$400,000 saved in workers’ compensation, and faster, more consistent EHS management across the organization.
