The Challenge: Get Critical Safety Insights Enterprise Wide
Manual methods of collecting and analyzing safety data can be time-consuming, requiring duplicative data entry in spreadsheets or on paper forms, and leaving significant room for human error. Not only is it difficult to manage safety data when it’s spread across multiple spreadsheets and files, it also leaves business leaders without quick, timely insights that help them make informed decisions.
ReNew Power, one of India’s largest renewable energy independent power producers (IPPs), recognized that using manual data collection and analysis was holding them back from achieving the highest possible standards for their EHS system—a key aspect of their vision to build the best renewable energy company in the world.
ReNew Power’s EHS system encompassed multiple activities across several sites and projects, which resulted in scattered data. Some of that data was stored on local hard drives. Site leaders found it very difficult to organize the data in a uniform way that allowed for data to be analyzed in aggregate at a corporate level.
Additionally, EHS team members needed more advanced data trending as well as business intelligence report preparation that would allow them to weave data into simple graphs for leadership overview.
Fortunately, the Benchmark Gensuite platform offered the team an EHS management system that would make it easy for them to streamline the collection, analysis, and communication of their safety data.
The company needed a comprehensive EHS management solution to:
- Gain visibility into EHS performance at all levels of the organization
- Boost data integrity and unite siloed data streams
- Automate reminders and follow up tasks
- Generate audit-ready reports
- Collaborate and communicate effectively across sites
- Scale its EHS management program to match continuous global growth

ReNew Power implemented Benchmark Gensuite Risk + Compliance Solutions to drive critical actions to closure, streamline incident management, empower employees to quickly report safety concerns, and achieve 100% digitization of their EHS system.

By future-proofing their EHS system, ReNew Power was able to implement a number of important program changes and improve their decision making and results.
