Centrica employs over 37,000 people and in 2013 generated more than £2.7 billion in operating profit. Philip Sayer, Group Head of HSE Governance & Assurance, Centrica, said: "Given the nature of our business, Health & Safety is the top priority on our agenda. We are excited to work with credit360 to establish an unparalleled, integrated platform that will be used at all levels of the organisation. This is a business critical system to help us to manage HSES performance and take a more proactive stance to further enhance our position. credit360 covers the full spectrum of our needs, after a comprehensive selection process we are very much looking forward to working with the credit360 system."
The credit360 EHS software solution will be used to log information on the ground through mobile applications, desktop entry and automated connections, and will support a range of complex workflow processes across the project areas. Ultimately, Centrica will be able to analyse the data with a range of flexible tools and communicate information via automated reports and dashboards. The system will also be used to automate the Director level review and sign off process, and provide executive level performance snapshots and analysis.
Mark Shields, Managing Director, credit360, said: "We are delighted to announce the start of this new client relationship with Centrica, and to support their ambitious efforts to establish an unparalleled integrated HSES platform. One of our key strategic objectives at credit360 is to continually develop the robustness of the system and expand the capabilities across the full range of EHS / compliance reporting and performance management.
