This article will summarize how you can use reporting thresholds and display them within Corfix.
1. Quick Definition
Report Thresholds let you tell Corfix: “Who isn't creating forms in the field” They turn raw data into automatic flags right on your Dashboard.
2. Why Bother? (The Why)
Benefit | Why It Matters |
---|---|
Early Warning System | Catch safety, compliance, or productivity issues before they escalate. |
Data‑Driven Accountability | Quantify expectations for crews, subcontractors, & admins. |
Cleaner Reporting | Filter out noise and focus exec dashboards on KPIs that actually need attention. |
Regulatory Peace‑of‑Mind | Stay informed when metrics are lagging/exceeding for OSHA/COR/ISO 45001 limits. |
3. What Exactly Are They? (The What)
-
A threshold pairs a metric with an action.
-
Metric Source – any reportable field in Forms, Timecards, Assets, or custom datasets.
-
Condition – Required activity count (1 tool box talk needs to be completed by each supervsor on a weekly basis)
-
Action – If no compliance think about implementing the following;
- If workers are hitting their metrics;
- Give out Rewards/Shoutouts!🎉
-

5. Real‑World Examples
Scenario | Threshold | Result |
Safety | > 2 Near Misses on a site within 5 days | Safety Manager is assigned a Corrective Action Task. |
Timekeeping | Employee timecard flagged "Forgot to punch out" > 3× in a week | Supervisor warned; coaching note added to review. |
Asset Maintenance | Equipment inspection fails >2 in a week | Task is created with Work Order. |
Form Compliance | Weekyl Toolbox Talk completion < 1 form | Task is sent to Supervisor with a Toolbox as as Resolution form. |
6. Best‑Practice Playbook (Opinion)
-
Start Small, Iterate. Don’t boil the ocean—2–3 critical KPIs per department is plenty.
-
Align With Leading Indicators. Catch risky behaviour before incidents (e.g., near‑miss vs. lost‑time).
-
Quarterly Review. Thresholds can drift out of relevance; schedule a QBR check‑in.
-
Document Actions. Every threshold should answer: “Who does what when this fires?”
-
Celebrate Hits. Use positive thresholds (e.g., 100 % training completion) to praise teams, not just punish.
