HOW A GCC ALUMINIUM AND STEEL MANUFACTURER DIGITALIZED SAFETY OPERATIONS WITH QGIRA
A leading GCC aluminium and steel manufacturer replaced fragmented, paper-based HSE processes with QGira creating connected workflows, faster approvals, and real-time safety visibility.
RESULTS AT A GLANCE
PROJECT OVERVIEW
THE CHALLENGE
The manufacturer relied heavily on paper-based processes to manage safety and compliance across high-risk industrial operations.
Key challenges included:
• Inconsistent audits and inspections
• Delayed incident reporting
• Limited root-cause and corrective-action tracking
• Paper-based work permits
• Disconnected training and certification records
• Time-consuming compliance reporting
• Limited real-time management visibility
BEFORE QGIRA
Paper Forms → Manual Approvals → Disconnected Records → Delayed Reporting
This fragmented process created delays, compliance gaps, and limited oversight of safety performance.
THE SOLUTION
QGira connected the manufacturer’s core safety activities within one digital platform.
The solution included:
• Digital audits and inspections
• Incident and corrective-action management
• Digital Permit to Work
• Training and certification tracking
• Automated reminders and escalations
• Real-time dashboards and analytics
• Mobile and multilingual field access
HOW QGIRA WORKS
Field teams capture information digitally. QGira routes each submission for review, automates notifications and escalations, tracks actions through closure, and provides real-time management insights.
