New York, NY — ConceptCSI, one of New York’s leading general contracting and construction management firms, has partnered with Boxcore to digitise safety and workforce management across its projects.
Founded in 1995, ConceptCSI has grown from a fledgling start-up with zero capital into a respected builder of high-end corporate interiors, critical infrastructure, and data centres. Today, the company is headquartered in New York City and delivers projects across 17 US states, 40 cities, and 23 countries, earning a reputation as technical builders capable of delivering complex, time-sensitive projects with a personal touch.
The Challenge
With projects spanning multiple regions and strict compliance requirements, ConceptCSI faced the common challenges of many general contractors face:
- Tracking OSHA cards, SST cards, and project-specific orientations.
- Managing training records and safety documentation across multiple jurisdictions.
- Dynamic fast moving environments with multiple subs working together
- Ensuring audit readiness and document transparency on demand.
As projects became larger and more complex, these manual systems created unnecessary risk and slowed project delivery.
Why Boxcore
Boxcore was chosen for its simplicity, speed of adoption, and frontline usability. The platform brings all safety and workforce data into a single, cloud-based system, ensuring:
- Real-time workforce visibility.
- Automated registers for training, documents, and assets.
- Mobile-first functionality, enabling site supers and project managers check safety records in seconds.
Derek Venne, Vice President of Strategic Developments at ConceptCSI, highlighted the benefits:
“Boxcore has greatly streamlined how we manage safety reporting across our projects. It has reduced compliance risk and given us far greater productivity by cutting out the manual processes that slowed our site teams down.”
Rapid Implementation
Boxcore deployed its platform with minimal effort required from the busy conceptcsi team, the Boxcore team migrated existing training data on existing projects to ensure busy site teams could get up and running with minimal disruption or effort required. Site teams and subcontractors were trained in minutes, and Boxcore’s New York City based support team ensured smooth onboarding and rapid adoption. For ConceptCSI, this meant gaining immediate, project-wide visibility without disrupting ongoing work.
