Enhancing worker and driver safety with AI at Exelon
This session will explore innovative approaches to safety analytics within the electric utility industry, focusing on two key areas: actionable driving insights (ADI) and energy-based analytics (EBA).
ADI:
The ADI program at Exelon leverages telematics data to notify first-line supervisors about unsafe driving behaviors exhibited by their drivers. This data-driven initiative includes tailored recommendations for coaching conversations, training, etc based on the type and history of these behaviors, promoting driver accountability and safety. The program's benefits include deeper integration with operational safety initiatives, enhanced tracking of driving audits and training attendance, and a robust mechanism for measuring the effectiveness of these initiatives. By providing managers and senior managers with visibility into driving metrics and recommended actions, ADI serves as a comprehensive tool for managing and improving driving behaviors across the organization.
EBA:
High-energy control assessments (HECA) are a modern strategy designed to enhance worker safety on construction and utility job sites by ensuring all high-energy hazards have corresponding controls to mitigate risks. Exelon is using an app to facilitate HECA, capturing over 4,000 energy-based observations monthly. Exelon's in-house analytics team is turning these observations into actionable insights. By applying artificial intelligence to this vast dataset, Exelon aims to uncover valuable insights to further enhance safety performance and mitigate future risks.
Join us as we delve into these cutting-edge safety analytics programs and discuss how they are transforming safety protocols within the electric utility industry.
