Business Challenges

Loudounhill's business operations like many, had been hit by covid, and they were still relying on outdated systems such as pen and paper to manage their safety. They could see an opportunity to align their multiple sites and staff by going digital. 
  • Reliance on pen and paper & spreadsheets.
  • Management was not convinced of the benefits of a digital system.
  • Multiple sites, all working siloed and with no clear communication or clarity of work.
  • Lack of team alignment and disjointed information shared with management.
  • Outdated processes in need of a radical upgrade.
  • The negative impact of COVID-19 added to the company’s challenges.

Solution

  • Worked with Lucidity’s UK partner Ian Gordon, Director at Gordon Foley Consulting, to find the best HSEQ solution. Ian was on hand to support every step of the way
  • As it was such a big change for their employees, Loudounhill Contracts implemented Lucidity during a quieter business period for smoother adoption. It was perfect timing as it let all their users try out and experience the Lucidity system.
