McLaren rolls out innDex site management platform

McLaren tested the platform on two projects: the Omega West industrial and logistics development in Warrington, and the Horizon 29 industrial and logistics hub in Bolsover.

Seeking a scalable, intuitive solution to manage access control, inductions, safety observations, competency tracking and delivery coordination, the contractor’s digital team chose innDex. After initial success, McLaren tried additional innDex modules to complement its Asite CDE, competency verification from Complete Competence and right-to-work and workforce compliance from PPAC.

Tom Gothard, senior digital implementation manager at McLaren, said: “InnDex’s simple and user-friendly interface makes site management and access control effortless for our teams. Its data-driven approach, combined with an intuitive user interface, ensures smooth deployment and reliable input from site teams.

“As a platform built for integration, innDex enables McLaren to verify workforce competency in line with the Building Safety Act, while also streamlining daily operations and ensuring compliance with our internal policies. Most importantly, it delivers the robust data outputs and connectivity we need to meet client expectations and evolving legislative requirements.”

As well as introducing innDex on all its UK sites, McLaren’s international arm is now using the platform on two data centre projects in the UAE.

Jamie Selway, head of SHEQ for McLaren International in the UAE, added: “Having biometric access control and live dashboards that tell us who is on site, including safety-critical workers, is a fantastic addition to our toolkit. Our team can now access all worker induction records, training certificates and asset records directly from their mobile devices. Having this information readily to hand and knowing the data is robust not only supports compliance, but also helps with real peace of mind.”
