Transforming EHS Training and Certifications to Digital at the Speed of Business: A Buttcon Success Story.

Introduction 

Buttcon, an employee-owned leader in the Canadian construction industry, is renowned for its high-quality workmanship, innovative solutions, and ability to fast-track projects. With a focus on institutional, commercial, industrial, and multi-unit residential projects, Buttcon has long aspired to digitize its contractor safety certifications to enhance efficiency and promote safety excellence. After a seven-year search for the perfect solution, the company embarked on a transformative journey.

Objectives 

Buttcon aimed to establish a uniform digital safety orientation to bolster contractor safety across its operations, prioritizing ease of access and administration. This initiative was expected to yield significant time and cost savings. Furthermore, Buttcon sought to standardize its training programs using the selected digital platform.

Solution 

In 2020, Buttcon chose LUMA1 for its inaugural digital safety certification project, focusing on contractors. The company utilized its existing PowerPoint-based contractor training, converting it into an MP4 video enhanced with LUMA1's additional content and assessment features. Successful completion of the certification granted contractors a digital certificate and a physical certification sticker for their hard hats. Following this success, Buttcon expanded its LUMA1-based training to include additional safety protocols and system training for tools like Procore, further integrating the platform into its business processes.

Results 

The shift to digital certification has led to substantial cost savings in the six-figure range, alongside notable improvements in user satisfaction and a deeper understanding of knowledge gaps among contractors and employees. This insight has been instrumental in enhancing both safety and productivity within the company. Remarkably, the first certification was developed and launched in under two weeks, showcasing LUMA1's exceptional capabilities.
