Case Study: Decmil achieves rapid digital HSE transformation and 90% site adoption with SAI360

Effective Digital HSE Transformation at High-Speed Decmil’s strategy for overcoming digitalization barriers

Decmil is an Australian construction and engineering firm operating since 1978 that entered a new growth phase and needed to digitalize its Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) processes. Leadership identified common digitalization barriers—securing buy-in, prioritization, user focus, change management and clear success criteria—and tasked the HSE team to implement the SAI360 platform in under three months.

Decmil addressed this by defining clear catalysts (operational efficiency and data accessibility), narrowing initial data capture to compliance-critical items, and rolling out SAI360 modules in phases (starting with actions, observations and incidents) with a mobile-first approach and strong change management. The no-code platform and integrations with HR, project, accounting and quality systems delivered real-time insights, drove a 90% increase in site-based teams using the software within six months, cut total cost of ownership, and is expected to reduce administrative effort by up to 50% as contractor and asset modules are self-configured.
