Go beyond prequalification with Avetta's Safety Maturity Index

Enhance contractor safety performance with powerful leading indicators.

The Safety Maturity Index takes you to the next level

Prequalification is the cornerstone of contractor safety and compliance. To go beyond prequalification, you need a solution to identify gaps in your contractors overall approach to safety to reduce the occurance of serious injury and fatalities (SIFs).

Assess contractors’ safety systems

Make it easy for your contractors to give you vital information about the implementation status of their Safety Management Systems (SMS).

Gain visibility into leading indicators

The Safety Maturity Index gives you access to powerful leading indicators so you can uncover risks to improve safety performance.

Evaluate the presence of Safety Management System elements

Contractors provide evidence of the elements of SMS they have implemented. Avetta validates the accuracy of contractors’ documented practices and policies.

Improve Safety Management System implementation

Contractors get access to well-researched safety content and tools such as templates, toolkits, and tip sheets to mature their SMS implementation.

The partnership pioneering excellence in safety

Avetta and the National Safety Council (NSC) recognized the need for a forward-looking solution to contractor safety. The Safety Maturity Index was designed based on 15 years of NSC research as well as data gleaned from Avetta’s network of 130,000 global contractor companies and 1.5 million contract workers.

How the Safety Maturity Index works

Safety Maturity Index assessments are designed to be predictive, proven, and understandable by contractors of varied sizes across multiple countries.

Evaluate contractor safety practices with a standardized assessment

Assess every contractor's Safety Management System (SMS) implementation in your supply chain. The Safety Maturity Index uses an assessment to determine the presence or absence of systems, processes, and methods across five categories that predict an organization's capabilities to manage risk, prevent accidents, and improve safety.

Seamlessly collect Safety Maturity Index assessment answers and evidence

The Avetta platform makes it easy to deploy, communicate, and gather results from your contractors and suppliers. Users can upload SMS documentation directly to the form for streamlined data collection.

Validate safety management evidence

Authenticate submitted contractor evidence using one of three forms of verification. Scores are weighted based on contractor findings, evidence, and verification method.

Get comprehensive, actionable scoring and reporting

Receive a SMI dashboard and reports with easy to understand contractor safety maturity scores, analytics, benchmarks, and insights to assess and manage your contractors’ safety maturity.
