Technology

Mountain State Civil, we deploy the most modern technology in all facets of our process.This is especially true within our safety program. Our safety team has designed and implemented a digital job hazard assessment process known as the Take 5. The Take 5 application allows all employees to perform a JHA at any point throughout their day from their cell phone or tablet. Since the implementation of this app, along with our dedication to the other areas of our safety program, we have lowered our incident rate by 75%.

The safety team has also designed and operates digital applications for reporting near misses, incidents, and accidents. Additionally, we have been able to lower costs associated to equipment damage by implementing a digital pre-trip inspection form.
