Multitude of jobs
Won by proving safety performance to owners with live data
Zero
Double-entry between SALUS and Procore — fully automated sync
Real-time
Field visibility on forms, certs, and sub compliance from the trailer
We can now show the results of our safety initiatives to owners. We were never able to do that before, and it’s helped us win a multitude of jobs.
Willmeng Construction is a leading general contractor in the American Southwest. They manage complex projects, multiple subcontractors, and the relentless documentation demands that come with building at scale.
Justin Itulle, Willmeng’s Field Integration Manager, knew the company’s safety program had to evolve from something they did to stay out of trouble into something that drove business.
Operational safety turns field work into usable proof.
15 platforms evaluated, none got it right
Willmeng had mountains of paper and no manageable way to read, track, or use the information they were collecting. They knew they needed to go digital — but after evaluating 15 platforms, they were still looking.
Subcontractor black hole
A fundamental disconnect between field and office. You hoped subcontractors were following the rules, but verifying compliance in real time was impossible.
15 evaluations, zero fit
Some had great dashboards but were too complicated for the field. Others were simple but lacked analytics. Several specialized in one area. None offered a connected system where everything lived in one place.
QR code orientation, Spanish forms, and Procore integration
Zero-friction field adoption
Workers scan a QR code for their one-time safety orientation — no app download, no account setup friction. They create an account in seconds with just a name and phone number. Forms are available in Spanish. Links can be embedded inside orientation and toolbox talk forms. The field adopted it because it removed friction instead of creating it.
Procore integration
With SALUS's Procore integration, all log submissions are automatically uploaded to Procore's document section — organized, categorized, and in one location. No double entries. No data silos. Safety activity becomes part of the project record automatically.
Workers scan a QR code for their one-time safety orientation — no app download, no account setup friction. They create an account in seconds with just a name and phone number.

Looker-Powered Reporting & Insights
Willmeng doesn’t just collect safety data — they weaponize it. SALUS embeds Google’s Looker analytics engine directly into the platform. Dynamic dashboards with drill-down capability let them correlate safety engagement with project outcomes, filter by sub or site, and export professional-grade reports that win work in bid presentations.

Subcontractor Performance Dashboard
Orientation rates, daily form completion, corrective action closure, training compliance — for every sub across every project. When Willmeng walks into a bid meeting, they’re not claiming they’re safe. They’re showing verified sub-level performance data that no competitor can match.

Connected Safety Wheel
Every data point — orientations, equipment scans, incident reports, corrective actions — feeds one interconnected system. A worker’s training history informs what forms they can sign. An equipment deficiency flags the asset across every dashboard. The modules talk to each other because they were built to.

More from Justin Itulle
It felt like we were going through the motions of safety, without a manageable way to read, track or use the information we were collecting. We had mountains of paper and you couldn’t find anything. Where did it go? In storage? The trash? What was the point of all that work?
The Procore integration created more tangible value in the form of time back to the field. We eliminated double-entries, gave visibility and access to field reports across the project/business in a uniform and organized fashion all automized, categorized, and in one location.
