What does it take to go from implementation to award-winning results in less than a year? Join us as Utilitra, the 2025 Rookie of the Year winner at Novara, shares their remarkable first-year journey with Novara Flex.
Jason Wernex, Director of Safety at this woman-owned engineering and construction firm, will reveal how they transformed their safety program from manual processes to a digital-first culture—and how their field workers became their biggest advocates along the way.
You’ll learn:
- How to drive user adoption among traditionally tech-resistant field workers (hint: start with what’s familiar)
- Implementation strategies that actually work when you have no dedicated system administrator
- Real metrics from real success: 300% increase in safety reporting and 200% improvement in field auditing
- Beyond safety: How field teams independently discovered operational applications for billing, project management, and daily logs
- What they’d do differently and what surprised them most about their Novara Flex journey
Perfect for:Safety managers implementing new technology, operations leaders seeking scalable solutions, and anyone who’s been told “our field workers will never adopt this.”
Whether you’re considering Novara Flex or in your first year of implementation, you’ll leave with actionable insights and proven strategies from a company that got it right from day one.
