      De-Risk Your Jobsites with Construction cameras

      Posted Aug 28, 2023

      You can’t be everywhere at once. How can you make sure nothing significant slips through the cracks as you juggle meetings, equipment, material, labor, trips to the jobsite, and daily project management activities?

      Construction cameras can help tackle the challenge by providing 24/7 project monitoring and built-in security. The motion detection feature alerts you when a camera senses suspicious movement, so you don’t have to be at the site to keep track of what’s happening.

      But did you know that construction cameras also protect from other risks? 

      Cameras with advanced features not only monitor for security incidents like vandalism and theft, but also for other threats that can set projects back as much as or more than security incidents. 

      The crew asked for an extension, but could it have been prevented?

      When subcontractors request time extensions, it’s important to examine why their work can’t be completed by the original deadline.

      Construction cameras with artificial intelligence activity tracking can help you investigate by analyzing images, reporting on findings, and sending alerts about situations that need attention.

      Whether it’s adverse weather, equipment issues, change orders, or safety reasons, the jobsite surveillance cameras give you visual evidence — real-time footage and time-lapse video — to support the decision to approve or deny requests.

      How can you know whether safety guidelines are being followed?

      Every jobsite has its own safety regulations and protocols. Enforcing these policies can be difficult when someone isn’t on-site to verify compliance and correct issues.

      Monitoring jobsites with construction cameras helps you ensure compliance with policies and procedures while documenting incidents and near-misses. This monitoring can help you avoid liability if someone is injured. 

      Are workers wearing safety glasses when necessary? Is scaffolding set up correctly? Is adequate fall protection in place? Construction cameras can visually confirm adherence to protocol and the presence of safety equipment. Footage can also pinpoint opportunities for compliance training and process improvement.

      Miscommunication can lead to costly delays, but live updates can fix issues quickly

      Simple misunderstandings can lead to costly jobsite mistakes. Construction cameras can prevent minor issues from turning into unplanned delays that negatively impact efficiency, cost, and completion time.

      Are trenches being dug incorrectly? Are tasks being completed out of order? Are materials damaged? Jobsite video cameras capture these oversights immediately so they can be corrected before slowing down projects.

      When you have construction cameras in place, you can easily confirm material delivery, the number of workers, material storage and handling processes, and other factors that affect quality, rework, productivity, and waste.

      Are you utilizing the full range of construction cameras’ capabilities?

      While construction cameras are already effective for security monitoring, they’re an even more powerful resource when used to reduce liability in other ways. Using the right camera system with advanced features can prevent jobsite issues from escalating into costly problems.
