The team at Structure Tone Southwest has a habit of proactively driving productivity, safety, and efficiency on their jobsites to new levels. Structure Tone Southwest is currently 10 months into building a 230,000 sqft data center, and they have taken the opportunity to implement Eyrus to streamline workforce registration, automate time and attendance, and enable enhanced safety-prevention and response measures.
During mandatory safety briefings, all workers register in Eyrus and create worker profiles that contain worker contact info, emergency contacts, certifications, and more.
With all worker contact information in Eyrus the Structure Tone Southwest and Core Safety Teams can easily communicate with all workers or groups of workers.
After registration, workers are assigned a Bluetooth beacon that sticks to their hard hat. This beacon pings against Eyrus readers on site, automatically collecting attendance and time on site. With this data, Eyrus creates a series of automated reports for the Structure Tone Southwest PM team:
A quick Q&A with Pablo Lopez-Castillo, Senior Project Manager and Macaulay Christian, Asst. Project Manager on the benefits they are experiencing with Eyrus:
Pablo: “What used to take hours to compile from different reports in our system, it now takes me minutes to complete with the help of Eyrus. Having the information centralized is big help.”
Macaulay: “The reports identifying individuals who are at risk of working too many hours and measuring forecasted workforce against actual are two of the most beneficial reports the Eyrus team has been able to develop, particularly when it comes to workplace safety and performance against schedule. As Eyrus continues to build out its reporting features, the ease and value of using the data will become more and more evident.”
Macaulay: “Everyone, whether a trade partner or vendor contracted directly with the Owner, is required to go through our project-specific safety orientation. This is where our safety personnel ensure that everyone completes the Eyrus registration process. From that moment on, Eyrus is put in charge of tabulating worker counts on a day-to-day basis. By also tying workers’ phone numbers into Eyrus, we can communicate directly with the hundreds of workers on-site each day in the event of inclement weather, safety stand-downs, and other project-related information without having to go through their respective companies.”
Pablo: “It is much faster to communicate emergencies to the workers. Much faster than we ever could.”
Macaulay: “The Eyrus team has been terrific. The bi-weekly check-in calls have been helpful running issues to ground, discuss opportunities to improve how the system is used on-site and possible features. The willingness of Eyrus to work with our project team to develop new reports based on our needs or those of our Owner has been greatly appreciated.”
Pablo: “I absolutely want to implement Eyrus in all my projects. From the standpoint of safety, workforce count efficiency and controlling the site, Eyrus has been a game changer for Structure Tone Southwest.”
Eyrus uses simple technology to automate workforce management and worksite monitoring processes that are probably taking too many manual hours for your construction team to complete.
Eyrus powers flexible solutions to meet the specific needs of each project, including:
