Industry Leader in EHS, ESG, and Sustainability Solutions Platform Grows with Acquisition of Innovation Leader in Field Safety and Operational Engagement
CINCINNATI, OH – October 10, 2024 – Benchmark Gensuite, an industry-leading Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) and Sustainability platform provider, today announced the strategic acquisition of Anvl, a globally-deployed, AI-powered frontline worker safety solution.
By acquiring Anvl, Benchmark Gensuite aims to help all companies fully operationalize their safety programs. Together with Benchmark Gensuite’s enterprise-scale, best practice-based EHS and sustainability management system, Anvl’s solution – purpose-built for field service and project operations – can unlock transformative organizational efficiency gains.
“This is a critical step in our commitment to providing the most innovative EHS solutions on the market,” said R. Mukund, Founder and CEO of Benchmark Gensuite. “Anvl furthers our first-to-market AI advantage by extending our chain of practical AI solutions for breakthrough gains in engagement, productivity, and safety performance improvements in distributed workforces – transforming paper-based and aging everyday work processes that currently cost companies millions each year.”
Anvl’s mobile-first solution strengthens the alignment of corporate safety programs and frontline execution by embedding critical safety processes into daily workflows for site leaders, field service techs, and frontline workers in a highly accessible way. The solution delivers proven 90%+ adoption by frontline workers in the first 90 days. With its intuitive interface, self-configurable dynamic workflows and forms, and rich two-way messaging for workers and supervisors, Anvl boosts productivity, provides real-time visibility into worksite operations, and accelerates risk mitigation in the field. Anvl’s first-to-market AI utility, Mobilize™, rapidly transforms analog and paper-based processes to turnkey digital forms and workflows that map perfectly to a site’s existing procedures – in any language and on any device, mobile, tablet, or laptop.
Organic adoption is a hallmark of the Anvl customer experience, which not only generates real, measurable enterprise impact but also allows customers to start small and grow their deployment to new use cases and business units over time.
Anvl customer Joseph Richardson, with the Cummins Health and Safety Center of Excellence said, “Our participation in terms of headcount and demand took off more than we could have ever imagined because our workers see the value in the product for any process that is cumbersome and manual.” Anvl has grown to support Cummins, a global power solutions leader, in 16 languages, 50 countries, and over 400 locations.
Examples of Anvl’s enterprise impact:
- Cummins reduced its carbon footprint by digitizing Job Safety Assessments (JSAs) and briefings with Anvl, saving over 1.1 million sheets of paper and thousands of hours of manual data entry.
- Constellation moved away from paper forms to Anvl, quickly deploying a fully customized, mobile near-miss program and new automated workflows for safety audits, vehicle maintenance checklists, and hot work permits. Four hundred technicians and supervisors have embraced Anvl, completing over 10,000 digital workflows directly from the field.
- Hoosier Energy’s field teams moved from paper to Anvl for mobile JSAs. In the first month, Hoosier Energy saw a 480% increase in completed JSAs and substantial improvement in critical safety data integrity.
“Anvl exists to enable frontline workers to do their jobs better, faster, safer, and smarter,” said Zach Taylor, CEO of Anvl. “Our AI-powered field worker solution, combined with Benchmark Gensuite’s robust EHS management solutions, provides customers a new level of assurance over workplace safety and performance. When management empowers frontline workers to engage in and collaborate in safety programs, the impact on performance, culture, and the bottom line is tremendous. Together, Anvl and Benchmark Gensuite are exactly what safety and operational leaders have been wanting for years.”
The acquisition of Anvl is Benchmark Gensuite’s first, following the minority investment in the company in 2023 by Vista Equity Partners.
