This company has launched enhanced capabilities for its Safety Suite 2.0 software platform, providing broader visibility into portable gas detection device fleets for safety leaders in refineries, chemical plants, utilities and first-responder operations. By adding more historical data, enhanced dashboards and forecasting capabilities, the unified software ecosystem now enables operators to better protect workers in real time, track and forecast compliance metrics and effectively manage device inventory. These updates can help operations teams to connect insights from historical trends and real-time metrics, meaning that organizations can shift from reactive responses to a more proactive approach. This helps to reduce risk, enable faster, more informed decision-making and strengthen a culture where worker safety is embedded in every process, asset and outcome.” With Safety Suite 2.0, safety managers can see past trends to help identify risk patterns and review historical alarm events from a centralized location, supporting post-incident investigations and informing safety training. The software platform helps support coverage for all workers and provides efficiencies and connected insights through other enhanced capabilities, including: Customizable dashboards that consolidate exposure data, compliance status and fleet health into clear visual summaries, making outcome measurement and audits quicker and easier. Real-time alerts are pushed to employees notify them of critical events or upcoming needs to bump test devices, keeping operations running smoothly and helping avoid costly downtime, and real-time readings are displayed from workers’ gas detectors provide quick visibility into safety conditions at all facilities or locations. Guided and automated workflows are available for onboarding, assigning, calibrating and returning devices back into inventory save time and improve tracking of portable technologies when assigned to a team, an individual or several people across different shifts. — Honeywell International, Inc., Charlotte, N.C.
