With Corfix you get full-picture visibility across your organization in one centralized, palm-of-your-hand solution. Corfix offers a comprehensive and integrated management system that provides full visibility across your business operations.
Yes, Corfix was developed as a cloud-based construction management solution, but clients outside of that industry are finding value in its simplicity, accessibility, and robust reporting and alert capabilities
So what can you do with Corfix? How are businesses outside of construction using Corfix to improve their productivity?
Whether you’re running a zoo with thousands of visitors or a small business with a fleet of trucks, these are the key areas of site management where Corfix provides unparalleled value:
- Accessible and Accurate Site Information
- Health and Safety Management
- Project/Site Management
- Visitor / Contractor Management
- Worker Management
- Resources/Asset Management
Accessible and Accurate Site Information
Corfix gets everyone on the same page with a single source of digital truth.
An online document library accessible from the mobile app and the admin browser ensures that accurate information is always at your worker’s fingertips, whether they are on site or working in a remote location across the country.
The document library can be adapted to support a wide range of industries by providing a secure, organized, and easily accessible repository for all critical documents —including those required by law—like:
- Emergency Response Plans
- Muster location
- Emergency Contacts
- Safe Work Procedure
- Safety Data Sheets (SDS)
- Work Policies
Using Corfix to store these documents takes the headache out of regulatory compliance, by making them universally and readily accessible—with just a few clicks or the scan of a QR code— complete with information you can trust is up to date and accurate.
Health and Safety Management
Corfix streamlines the management of essential health and safety forms and certifications by reducing the reliance on paper documents. With digital versions readily accessible for verification, compliance audits are much easier to deal with.
Any and all forms used on your site can be digitally created in Corfix by using a template builder or by working with the Customer Success team to develop what you need. These forms are easily distributed, completed, reviewed, and signed within the software, enhancing the effectiveness of your safety programs.
Here are some health and safety applications that clients are using Corfix for:
- Incident Management and Reporting
- Inspection Forms
- Safety Forms
- Training & Competency Tracking
- Hazard Identification
- Emergency Alert System
In most cases, QR codes can be implemented to make access and reporting even easier, especially for visitors or 3rd party contractors. There is also the ability for external parties to sign documents without needing an account or a downloaded version of the Corfix app.
Real time data entry and automated notifications enhance overall safety protocols on site—and, should you need it, digital records assigned to workers and projects prove due diligence and compliance. A digital paper trail is created to demonstrate how issues have been addressed and resolved, including photographic evidence and digital documentations to provide proof of timely compliance.
In the event that you need to manage employee training and competency levels, the Corfix app securely stores and organizes all certifications and training records, which employees can present from their mobile devices if requested. Notifications for upcoming expirations can be set so that you can proactively plan additional training or recertification activities.
Corfix has the ability to immediately disseminate emergency push notifications to specific staff groups, enhancing the ability to respond swiftly in critical situations. Tailoring the notifications ensures the right people are notified without causing any unnecessary disturbance to the larger group.
Project/Site Management
The person (or people) responsible for the project or the site will benefit from Corfix’s customizable dashboard that provides a 360-degree view of everything they care about. Overviews can be tailored to their KPIs, enabling better management and quicker decision making.
As new workers, documents, and time cards are entered into Corfix, they’re automatically associated with their projects for easy access, retrieval, and audit. With these things linked to specific projects, project/site managers can more accurately account for expenses, keep on budget, and predict future costs.
Visitor / Contractor Management
Depending on your business, there are sometimes situations where you’d like to track documentation from people not technically (or at all) on your staff, such as visitors or external workers on site for a repair.
Workers and visitors can sign in using QR codes, which immediately bring up necessary documentation for acknowledgment and signatures, streamlining the entry process and ensuring compliance from the moment of arrival. QR codes enhance security and efficiency, allowing for seamless check-ins and attendance tracking of workers, visitors, and contractors.
Corfix also includes an external signer portal that facilitates the signing of documents electronically, reducing bottlenecks at busy times, like when facilities open for the day, or when staff arrive for a morning shift.
Worker Management
Corfix can help manage the day-to-day activities of the site workers, starting with their arrival. Corfix has incorporated labour hour tracking into the software, which can be enhanced with features like geofencing, automatic lunch removal, punch-in/out reminders or as simple as electronic time card bulk-entry at the end of the week.
Worker attendance can be tracked with the click of a button and the geofencing feature offers real-time tracking of personnel within designated areas, providing enhanced security and operational oversight through dashboard and map visibility.
Cost codes can be created to better organize and track what work is being performed without adding an extra headache for the payroll administrator.
Corfix also facilitates worker task management, including the initiation of corrective and preventative actions. Managers can assign work from anywhere, to anyone and easily view the status of a task, from “accepted and in progress” to “complete”, and even require photographs or supporting documentation to confirm.
Resources/Asset Management
Corfix includes a useful asset directory designed to provide those who need it with a detailed overview of the business’s resources, whether they be equipment, tools, and vehicles or modified to represent rooms or even animals.
Assets and resources can be assigned to people and projects and real-time status updates let you monitor the current status of each resource. Photographs and notes can be added for more detail so you can stay on top of maintenance needs, operational status, and general upkeep.
