This OneBonsai simulation asks the trainee to spot missing fall protection and choose the correct response inside a realistic work environment.
CONSTRUCTION · FIELD INTELLIGENCEEACH DEVICE HAS ONE CLEAR JOB
Four ways to capture site evidence.
The equipment stays modular. Every verified finding enters the same project record.
CCTV + VISIONContinuous zones for attendance, PPE and hazards.
ROBOT DOGRepeatable indoor routes with cameras, thermal and 3D scanning.
SMART DRONEApproved aerial routes for roofs, façades and earthworks.
MOBILE CAPTURETargeted evidence from the engineer already on site.
FIELD EQUIPMENT · REUSABLE ACROSS THE PORTFOLIOBUY ONCE · DEPLOY ON EVERY SITE
One kit, every project type.
The cameras, the robot and the drone are not tied to one site. They move with the programme, from a tower to a commercial development to a private villa, and the cost is spread across the whole portfolio.
Fixed cameras on gates and cores. The robot repeats floor-by-floor MEP routes. The drone surveys the façade and crane zones on an approved route.
Evidence per floor, per dayCameras cover yards and loading bays. The robot scans large slabs and plant rooms. The drone tracks earthworks, roofs and car parks.
Progress against programme, verifiedOne camera and a weekly robot or drone visit are enough. The same record format, the same close-out proof, at villa scale.
Light-touch, same standardTHE BENEFITThe equipment is reusable. One investment serves every project Saffarini runs, and every finding lands in the same record no matter the site.

Saffarini approves where project data sits, who may access it, which services may process it and how long records remain.
