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
