In the fast-paced and demanding world of construction, safety isn't just a priority; it's a fundamental necessity. Every day, thousands of hardworking individuals put their lives on the line to build cities and communities.
Twiceme understands the critical importance of not only providing reliable protection, but also offering innovative solutions that empower both workers and rescuers alike.
Partnering for Progress
Its partnership model is rooted in the belief that safety should never be compromised. By collaborating with construction helmet brands, Twiceme integrates state-of-the-art technology into its products, elevating safety standards for everyone.
Its partners, renowned for their commitment to excellence, recognize the value we bring to their customers: enhanced protection coupled with advanced functionality.
Climbing-style helmets
Studson has become the #1 choice for contractors in the USA, and Twiceme is part of that journey
Take Studson, for example, who started in 2019 intending to revolutionize the construction industry through climbing-style helmets. An industry that had been stagnant for a century.
They’ve become the #1 choice for contractors in the USA, and Twiceme is part of that journey. As Twiceme onboarded close to 450+ contractors in Q4 of 2023, most of them with Studson helmets at the site, this demonstrates the tremendous growth they’ve achieved.
Anonymized data insights
Through the partnership model, Twiceme provides value to brands through anonymized data insights, assisting them in adding innovations to their equipment through easy integration, and more.
It can also reach a much higher scale in the value we provide to contractors and workers at the site compared to if it sells directly to consumers. This is why partnering with world-pioneering brands has been the sole focus, and it's rapidly transforming the construction industry.
Bringing Value Beyond the Surface
From continuous gear monitoring to instant alerts, the solutions are designed to empower individuals
But the mission extends far beyond product enhancement. Twiceme is dedicated to delivering tangible value to contractors and workers, ensuring that every innovation serves a practical purpose.
From continuous gear monitoring to instant alerts, the solutions are designed to empower individuals with the information they need to make informed decisions and effectively mitigate risks.
Privacy Concerns Solved
Twiceme initially began as an integrated Medical ID because rescuers have sought a solution for decades that allows them to understand more about an injured person as they arrive at the accident site.
However, privacy laws like GDPR and HIPAA have made this challenging. These laws serve a real purpose in protecting individuals' medical information and more. Through Twiceme, by storing this information locally in the equipment, one can provide this information without compromising personal data or risking it being hacked.
Addressing compromised data
Also, users have made it easy to delete the locally stored information, and reupload it the next time
Sometimes, though, people worry that changing gear might leave their information vulnerable. Or that if they leave their gear, someone can scan it and access all their personal information. Sure, that’s true.
Just as someone can rob a user of a wallet or car keys. Because users have to tap the equipment to access the information, rarely, they don’t notice someone scanning them. Also, users have made it easy to delete the locally stored information, and reupload it the next time they are using the equipment.
Solving More Issues
As time progressed, Twiceme developed additional features that protect workers before and after an incident. Before an incident, it assists them in monitoring their equipment through regular checks and even through product inspection directly within Twiceme, ensuring compliance at all times with laws.
After an accident, Twiceme offers all the critical alerting and identification functionalities needed to take action as a bystander and become a helper.
Reduced costs
Through Twiceme, one can likely substantially decrease these costs because users are more prepared
But it’s not just that Twiceme allows workers to be more prepared in case of an accident. The construction industry is plagued by high litigation costs and the consequences of accidents.
Through Twiceme, one can likely substantially decrease these costs because users are more prepared before an accident even occurs. This means that one can shift investment into preventive measures instead of reactive ones.
Continuous Innovation
As Twiceme is a digital product, nothing is holding it back in terms of opportunities to provide more value, both to partners and workers. Such as what it did with its partner Guardian Fall, where Twiceme developed a comprehensive product inspection feature for fall protection harnesses. All within Twiceme and specifically made for competent persons.
And later in 2024, Twiceme latching on to functionalities that might transform how contractors use Twiceme daily. More on this later this spring, but to give a hint, it will allow workers to upload all their documents, training records, certifications, and more to their gear. Plus, Twiceme adding even more functionalities for safety managers and competent persons.
Empowering Helpers
Twiceme ensures that solutions not only meet but exceed the expectations of those on the front lines
At the heart of Twiceme lies a deep-seated commitment to those who safeguard communities: the rescuers. The technologies are engineered not only to protect but also to facilitate rapid response and rescue operations.
By forging close ties with rescue teams and first responders, Twiceme ensures that solutions not only meet but exceed the expectations of those on the front lines. That's why Twiceme works with over 400 rescue organizations around the world to drive awareness and build a knowledge base of what brings value in real-life scenarios.
A Real Scenario Where Twiceme was Needed
- Interview with Jacob:
“I work as a service technician in ventilation and was there to carry out a job when I learned that one of the people on the site had fallen from a beam. The situation seemed serious, and it was difficult to find out who the person in question was, which shift he belonged to, and whether he even spoke Swedish - Foreign subcontractors are very common."
"It all resulted in an ambulance being called and colleagues while waiting for the ambulance, having to do their best to communicate with the injured man who did not seem to respond to calls."
Addressing call responses
"Afterwards, it turned out that the person in question was a foreign worker working for one of the subcontractors, and that his entire family was in his home country."
"Thankfully, he seemed to have fully recovered. In retrospect, I think it would have been good to know more about the man, he was after all a colleague, and he didn't speak Swedish and therefore might have had difficulty responding to calls. I also think about his family, if they had time to get worried before they heard anything from him.”
Conclusion: A Safer Tomorrow Starts Today
In the ever-evolving landscape of construction safety, Twiceme stands as a beacon of innovation and reliability. Twiceme can't prevent accidents from occurring. But what it can do is help those who will help users if an accident happens. Getting the right help quickly after an accident can be a life or death difference.
By turning a helmet or piece of equipment into a source of information, Twiceme provides bystanders with the answers they need to make the best decisions when it’s needed the most. By simply tapping the Twiceme symbol with a smartphone, the first person on the scene can access an incapacitated user's uploaded profile, which may include fields such as medical history, personal identifiers, ICE contacts, insurance information, and exact coordinates.
