Has the COVID-19 pandemic sped up digital transformation in your organisation?

Despite the virus’ devastating impact on the economy, businesses are investing more in technology; with 52% of companies stating they will increase their spending on digital transformation, according to a global research study from IFS.

The study confirmed that many companies were using the global downturn to divert resources to technological renewal and innovation; while enterprise software also looked to play a role in accelerating recovery further down the line. Adopting digital software solutions to replace outdated systems and working practices will help companies thrive, now and in the future – although it is important to remember that digital solutions is and has played a vital role in helping companies here and now to ensure businesses can still communicate and engage with customers, clients, contractors and suppliers; as a survey by Twilio found that 95% of all companies are seeking new ways of engaging customers as a result of COVID-19 and 92% say transforming digital communications is extremely or very critical to address current business challenges.

As part of our commitment to assisting your business continuity, at a time when many teams have been struggling with contractor compliance, we’ve been telling you how we can help significantly and quickly with our Verature Contractor Management Systems.

We’ve been letting you know how Verature can enable your organisation to continue working safely and productively with; Homeworking access, Kiosk Mode Receptions, Lone working options, and Specific Questionnaires and Health Declaration Approval Process.

  • Homeworking: Our Verature systems are cloud-based solutions, enabling you and your team to work remotely and still have 24/7, 365 days access to all the information and database so you can continue to manage your contractors and visitors.
  • Kiosk Mode Receptions: Enabling you to move to a paperless system that can limit hand to hand contact, the Verature system can be set to a to a kiosk mode to automate how visitors and contractors sign in or out of site; preventing unnecessary queues and bottle necks not only via paperless signing-in, but by allowing RAMS and Credentials to be checked and your visitor to be Inducted,  BEFORE they even arrive on site!
  • Lone Working: Track Lone Worker situations, with a full escalation process. The Verature System is enabling Lone Workers to log out remotely and if they have not signed off site, a text and email will be issued to an emergency contact to escalate a healthy and safety check on the Worker.
  • Specific Questionnaires and Health Declaration Approval Process: You and your team will have the ability to only approve visits with an approved coronavirus questionnaire. The development to the contractor compliance process enables you and your team to pre-vet for the coronavirus before your visitors or contractors arrive anywhere near your site and near your staff. From the Verature system an induction questionnaire can be sent to your chosen visitors and contractors to be checked, based on the answers provided, the questionnaire will expire every 7 days and will be re-sent to ensure the health and safety of others on site.
