4 Benefits of Using a Web Application for Incident Management

When something goes wrong at your company, are you one of the first people alerted? Depending on your organization, you may carry the title of safety manager, compliance officer, general manager, or something similar. Yet, no matter your title, you most likely understand the importance of an organized response when faced with an unplanned event. At Verity, we believe incident management best practices need a revolution. We’ve created the first web application of its kind that makes incident reporting and management easier and faster than ever.

In your role, the planning and prevention of health and safety incidents is top priority. But employee health and safety issues aren’t the only incidents that can halt operations and cause a loss of time, productivity, and revenue. Equipment damage, loss or theft of company property, weather damage, and other unplanned events that slow or even stop efficient workflow can all negatively affect a company’s bottom line. For you, many of these incidents most likely spark a flurry of reports, meetings, research, and investigations or partnerships with third parties such as law enforcement or OSHA. If you’re like most companies in the oil and gas, construction, property management, or security services industries, this process involves a paper trail of outdated spreadsheets, documents, and records that have likely been used for years.

We’ve created the first web application of its kind that makes incident reporting and management easier and faster than ever.

To keep up with the growth and progress of your industry, an outdated paper trail is simply not enough. Your incident management procedures should be as up-to-date as the rest of your technology. If the other areas of your business are streamlined (from accounting and IT to supply chain management), why isn’t incident management? Finding a comprehensive, digital solution that works for your business will give you peace of mind that future issues will be less stressful and more effectively handled.

Verity exists to provide an easy-to-use incident management system that’s entirely web-based.

The top 4 benefits you’ll receive by switching to a web-based incident management platform

Efficiency

Multiple documents and folders that most likely assemble your current incident management system can make things confusing and are difficult to comprehensively update, as well as share with key third parties. With a web application, everything you need to log information, make important notes, record photos, and more is found within a single platform. As a web-based application, Verity improves the efficiency of record-keeping because it:

  • Is accessible 24/7 from any location or site with a secure internet connection
  • Features built-in security parameters that protect sensitive information
  • Always features the most recent, up-to-date information
  • Provides an easy-to-use, consistent template for recording all incidents which improves the ability to review long-term trends
  • Quickly pulls quantitative data into easy-to-read graphs and charts

Ease of Access

A web-based application means that viewing, editing, and analyzing incident information is as easy as logging into the platform. You or other members of your team at a corporate office can easily view live cases within Verity that pertain to multiple worksites hundreds of miles away. This helps management to make informed decisions more quickly.

Your Verity platform can be directly shared with key third party members outside your organization such as law enforcement personnel, legal teams, insurance professionals, OSHA investigators, and more. In addition, its integrative technology makes it easy to automatically notify pertinent outside members when you update information within a case.

Faster Response Times

You may well know the term “time is money” which is never truer than when it comes to incidents involving company property. Whether it’s a theft of materials or loss of equipment, fast response times can be the difference between recovering stolen or lost materials or losing both the assets and time it takes to replace them.

With a web-based platform utilizing GPS software, key company assets such as vehicles or equipment can be easily tracked and monitored on a digital map, even from miles away. The incident management platform is not just a secure home for company records but is a digital inventory system. With the power of GPS tracking, you can more quickly identify issues, alert law enforcement, and improve your chances of recovering stolen or lost assets.

Effective Prevention

Information backed by numbers, data, and historical figures is the best tool you can have to make informed, logical decisions for management. For instance, are recurring individuals involved in multiple incidents? Is theft happening at a certain time of year? Verity can give you qualitative tools to help you answer these questions and more.

Our web-based platform securely stores all of your company’s incident reports, which makes it easy to visually display aggregated data. The integrated GPS and mapping technology gives you a wide-angle visual tool of exactly where incidents are occurring, helping you to make better management decisions on how to prevent them in those key areas moving forward. Both the geographical tools and qualitative figures and charts help you to identify trends and proactively plan ways to reduce the frequency of unplanned events. Over time, enough data can help to even prevent future incidents.
