The system, named RyderSTAR, allows the Corporate Health & Safety team to establish enterprise-wide consistency in activity management to support proactive safety management. The system’s intelligence automatically creates a “custom” Safety Plan for each site based on the location’s operations, type of business, and several other factors. Based on site’s monthly activities, the system creates a “Scorecard” that can be rolled up at all levels of the organization.

“Several years ago, we partnered with ProcessMAP to start building Ryder’s web-based global safety management system. RyderSTAR system had already been deployed in North America and Europe and we have been able to improve transparency in our safety initiatives since then,” said Bill Anderson, Director Global Safety & Security for Ryder. “Deployment in Latin America demonstrates our continued confidence in the value ProcessMAP’s solutions have added to Ryder, and the system’s ability to further the effectiveness of our safety programs. Together with Latin America, the system now is used at more than 2,000 locations globally. As a leader in the transportation industry, safety is a top priority for Ryder.”
