UK Connect tackles COVID in construction with new test-logging tech 

Today, in an industry first, construction connectivity specialists, UK Connect, announces a brand-new feature to tackle COVID-19 outbreaks, as part of its powerful site management software, One.site. 

The new feature allows construction sites to efficiently handle the collecting, storing and management of worker COVID-19 test results from one central online location. Users are then able to record individual test results, before allowing entry to sites, as well as set parameters on test result expiration and when workers need re-testing. 

By making the process as streamlined as possible through quick and accurate capture  software, site managers can record and track COVID-19 test results for every visitor. This ensures only those with a negative test can enter, reducing risk and preventing complete site shut-downs. 

Working with customers to address industry COVID-19 challenges utilising the innovation of new technologies

UK Connect developed the One.site enhancement by responding to, and working alongside, key customers who needed an answer to potential site closures and disruptions as a result of COVID-19.  

UK Connect, were then able to create a solution for One.site that actively safeguards construction site staff and workers. Now in its final phase of testing, it has plans to roll-out the new feature nationwide from February 2021, to help the nation’s housebuilders operate in a safer, smarter and more efficient way. 

Currently, the COVID-19 test logging feature is a free module for all One.site customers, working alongside its existing powerful site induction software and sign-in app.  

UK Connect also has plans to release a free three-month trial nationwide to housebuilders and developers interested in adopting this market-leading technology.
