VectorEHS, formerly IndustrySafe, allows organizations to report, track, and analyze various safety data, including incidents, inspections, and hazards.

The software is web-based and configurable and includes data entry, a mobile application, dashboards, and reporting features. As a product manager, I worked with multiple teams, including technical, sales and marketing, and customer success, to design, test, launch, and improve the product.

The product has been successfully used by hundreds of organizations allowing them to improve the safety of their stakeholders and achieve regulatory compliance.

Led team that developed APIs to connect employee and course content information from multiple learning management systems into an environmental health and safety software, including course performance, progress, and history.

The IndustrySafe Mobile App is successfully used by multiple organizations to conduct safety inspections in the field and to synchronize data back and forth to the IndustrySafe web application. The mobile app is designed for both offline and online use and needs to update with the configuration settings from the web application. System administrators can add/edit and modify inspectors, checklists and checklist items, checklists forms, and more using the web application. All of these options need to update on the mobile inspection web and allow for a great frontline worker, supervisor, or safety professional user experience.

As product manager for this product, I collaborated and developed with team members the design, business, and functional requirements for this project, including design and branding specifications, UX and UI wireframes, and launch and implementation plans.

Vector Solutions had a safety data sheet software available in the education and public sector, and it was not available for sale in the commercial business unit.

Launched effort to enable sales of the SDS software to commercial businesses, including updating Salesforce CPQ codes, creating product marketing and sales training materials, delivering sales training, and designing a product interface between the SDS products and Vector's EHS software.

The efforts resulted in a significant increase in SDS sales for the commercial business units.

Determining which communities or households cannot benefit from high-speed internet and digital access is a complex problem and can require different solutions depending on the issue.

For example, a lack of broadband availability may require cable installation, while issues of affordability and literacy will require a different approach. Several disparate data sets are collected on a national level that attempts to tackle the digital divide issue, and each state or local government may have additional data available.

In addition, data privacy and data security concerns are paramount in protecting individual-level data. Working with the team at Civis Analytics, we created a framework to gather, scrub, and analyze a wide variety of data sets and to create data models that will allow cities and states to determine which communities and which strategies would provide the most effective solutions to bridge the digital divide.

The IndustrySafe (now Vector EHS) SaaS application has a detailed dashboard that allows users to view their safety data from all modules in one place. The dashboard is configurable so users can create their own dashboards or select dashboards from a pre-set list. The indicators include incident metrics (including OSHA compliance), inspections, corrective actions, and more.

As the product manager, I worked with the development and customer success teams and customers to create and refine the list of pre-set indicators, including UI/UX components, indicator definitions and calculations, data sources, data validation, and more. The dashboards are developed with a third-party BI tool. I also worked with the product marketing team to develop customer marketing materials describing the indicators and their benefits.
