    World Day for Safety and Health at Work: digital hazard tools for project engineers

    World Day for Safety and Health at Work: digital hazard tools for project engineers

    First reported on New Civil Engineer

    30 Second Briefing

    World Day for Safety and Health at Work sees Mott MacDonald showcase five digital tools from a Strategic Design Partnership hackathon aimed at tightening hazard management on infrastructure projects. Concepts include automated hazard identification from design models, mobile apps for site-based risk reporting, and dashboards aggregating incident and near-miss data in real time. For civil and geotechnical teams, the focus is on earlier visibility of construction and ground risks, faster feedback loops between site and design, and more structured capture of lessons learned.

    Technical Brief

    • Mott MacDonald’s tools were incubated through a Strategic Design Partnership hackathon format, enabling rapid prototyping.
    • Several tools focus on integrating site observations with design-office workflows, tightening traceability of risk decisions across project phases.
    • Emphasis is placed on capturing near-miss data alongside incidents, supporting leading-indicator safety metrics rather than lag-only reporting.
    • Data aggregation concepts are intended to operate across multiple projects, allowing portfolio-level comparison of hazard profiles and controls.
    • Hackathon outputs are positioned to complement, not replace, existing CDM and corporate safety-management-system processes.
    • For civil and geotechnical teams, the direction of travel is towards codified, digital-by-default hazard registers embedded in project information models.

    Our Take

    Mott MacDonald’s appearance across multiple recent pieces – from SMR work with Great British Energy – Nuclear to the Windermere station masterplan – suggests any digital safety tools it promotes are likely being road‑tested in complex, multi‑stakeholder UK infrastructure settings rather than in isolation.

    ABAX Tachograph for light vans: SMT2 compliance and data workflow notes for fleets

    ABAX has launched ABAX Tachograph to bring 2.5–3.5‑tonne light commercial vehicles into compliance with the EU Mobility Package’s Smart Tachograph 2 (SMT2) rules taking effect on 1 July for international transport. The system integrates LCVs and existing HGVs on a single Smart Operations platform, adding automated tachograph data downloads, violation analysis and driver data management rather than a separate standalone unit. ABAX is targeting fleets facing the 2026 full compliance deadline, aiming to simplify cross‑border operations and reduce manual admin around drivers’ hours enforcement.

    Liebherr extends MyLiebherr digital services: fleet data insights for engineers

    Liebherr is rolling out its expanded MyLiebherr Performance and MyLiebherr Maintenance digital services for earthmoving and material handling fleets in Australia, the UK, Ireland, Canada and the USA, with six months’ free access. The maintenance module gives workshop managers a fleet-wide status overview with traffic light condition coding, cause-specific alerts (e.g. upcoming services, low fluid levels), machine-level service histories and geo-tracked locations to plan bundled interventions. The performance module tracks utilisation, idle hours, fuel consumption versus a global average, and weighing data, enabling group comparisons by machine type or operation to tighten scheduling and cut operating costs.
