We help companies improve their jobsite safety through an application called Corfix. Corfix was created by construction professionals for construction professionals, to ensure that the safety requirements of your projects are covered from start to finish. Corfix enables companies to eliminate the use of paper in the field, improve their regulatory compliance, manage jobsite safety, and connect projects, workers, and documents into one consolidated package. By doing so, Corfix allows your team to view all essential documents in one easy-to-use software (with permissions); organize and distribute important safety documents so you can be prepared for unexpected COR audits; allow real time reporting or injuries, incidents and equipment issues to ensure you are on top of every hazard/accident happening at your jobs; and link forms, tasks, people and hours, to a project so you can have a real-time snapshot of your projects’ health.
