DigiSHEC
Transforming operations with Survey123
A gold standard for mining exploration safety records, transforming paper-based processes into an automated digital platform using Esri's Survey123.
Project Overview
DigiSHEC represents a transformational approach to safety, health, environment, and community (SHEC) management in the mining exploration sector. By evolving from paper-based forms to an automated digital platform using Esri's Survey123, this solution has set a new gold standard for mining exploration safety records.
The Challenge
Mining exploration companies traditionally relied on cumbersome paper-based systems to track safety incidents, environmental observations, and community interactions. These systems were:
- Prone to data entry errors and delays
- Difficult to analyse for trends and patterns
- Time-consuming to compile for regulatory reporting
- Limited in their ability to capture location-based information
Our Solution
GP One Consulting developed a comprehensive digital solution leveraging Esri's Survey123 platform to transform SHEC data collection and management. The solution includes:
- Mobile-first design: Field teams can capture data offline in remote locations
- GPS integration: Automatic location capture for all observations and incidents
- Photo documentation: Attach images directly to records for better context
- Real-time dashboards: Management can monitor safety performance instantly
- Automated reporting: Generate compliance reports with a single click
Results
The implementation delivered significant improvements:
- 85% reduction in data entry time
- 100% improvement in data accuracy
- Real-time visibility into safety performance across all sites
- Streamlined regulatory compliance reporting
