Negotiate Better Insurance Terms

Demonstrate to insurers that your projects are a lower safety risk with extensive data and a strong predictive-based safety program.

Insurance rates have climbed steadily since 2018, growing 25% according to Marsh McLennan. It’s an enormous cost for construction firms, accounting for 5% or more of a project’s total cost, so controlling them is a high priority.

Worker’s compensation insurance is an important driver of insurance costs. Newmetrix has partnered with carriers to bring the safety benefits of Predictive Based Safety to their insured.

What is a Predictive Based Safety (PBS) program?

A PBS program combines the safety and project data you are already collecting with artificial intelligence (AI) to create metrics and predictive models to predict which sites are at the highest risk of an incident. These alerts, along with recommendations on how to mitigate them, enable teams to take action to prevent incidents before they happen. This preventative action leads to better results. Early adopters of PBS have seen their incident rates drop by more than 30% over a 12-month period.

Chances are, most organizations are already collecting the data required to power PBS.
