Construction teams work around noise, changing site conditions and colleagues spread across different areas. Clear communication helps site managers, contractors and tradespeople exchange updates and coordinate work.
Connect site teams with push-to-talk
Storm’s push-to-talk over cellular enables one-to-one and group voice communication at the push of a button. Teams can also share messages, images, videos and files to explain an issue or provide an update from the site.
Choose devices that suit the working environment and your organisation’s policies. Assess network coverage in the areas where staff will use the service before deployment.
Coordinate work from a control room
A dispatch console helps a control room communicate with workers and view their locations. This can support coordination across a site or between teams working at different locations.
Support workers who need assistance
Storm’s lone worker solution includes SOS alerts, man down alerting and check-ins. These tools support existing safety procedures, with agreed arrangements for receiving alerts and responding to workers who may need help.
Communication technology does not guarantee worker safety or replace risk assessments, training and site safety procedures.
Plan communication for your project
Start with the number of users, the groups that need to communicate, device suitability, network coverage and response arrangements. For temporary requirements, ask about push-to-talk device hire. Storm’s minimum hire period is one week, and bookings should be made at least two weeks in advance.
