Join Exelon's Mark Musser and explore their evolution toward an Energy-Based Safety approach and the lessons they learned along the way.

This session will examine how Exelon's rollout of Energy-Based Observations started as a tool to capture richer hazard data — but it became the catalyst for a broader shift in how field teams think about safety culture. 

That shift is now shaping Exelon's next move: consolidating EBOs, JSBQA, and BBOs into a single field EHS interface, so crews work from one unified view instead of three disconnected tools. It's a case study in how a single workflow win, done right, can become the foundation for an entire platform rethink.

Speaker: Mark Musser, Exelon

Join National Grid to learn how about their journey with field safety technology ,and how it is enabling front-line supervisors to play a more active role in the safety process.

This session will showcase how digital tools support a better job brief, improve coaching, real-time guidance, and enhanced oversight before, during, and after work execution—all working together to help strengthen safety culture, improve accountability, and reduce operational risk.

Speaker: Jerry Convery, National Grid

Join members of the Worker Safety Customer Advisory Board for an invite-only working session with our leadership and product team. 

We’ll recap how your 2025 input shaped the roadmap, review live prototypes of key initiatives in active discovery, and gather your direct feedback to guide what we build next.

Speakers: Brad Jacobs | Jon Kremer | Jay Agrawal | Alex Munro | Marc Baskin, Itron

We'll wrap Day 1 with a recap of the day's sessions, and a preview of what to expect on Day 2.

Speaker: Brad Jacobs, Itron

We'll wrap up our first Inspire event with a recap of discussions, actions, next steps, and how we continue to build the Worker Safety community moving forward.

Speaker: Brad Jacobs, Itron

Join us for a first look at Field Engage, Worker Safety’s new module designed to put the right information in front of your   crews at the right moment. 

We’ll walk through publishing communications and training content straight into the app, and show how engagement data helps you understand how crews are actually using it day to day.

Speaker: Alex Munro, Itron

You’ve told us where device limitations and offline access make field work harder.

Join the Worker Safety product team to see how your feedback is shaping a more consistent experience across devices, and learn what to expect during rollout.

Speakers: Jon Kremer | Marc Baskin, Itron

Energy-Based Observations and Smart Job Safety Briefings have moved from pilot programs to everyday field practice across the industry — but no two organizations got there the same way.

This session opens with a look at the collective impact so far: adoption, scale, and the high-level metrics behind the shift. 

From there, two customers take the stage to share their own path — where they started, what they were trying to solve, how they rolled out EBOs and the JSB across their   organizations, and what they'd tell others considering the same journey. Each brings a different starting point and a different focus, offering a grounded, practical look at what implementation actually looks like once the pilot phase ends.

The session will close with each customer sharing what they still need — open questions, gaps, and/or asks for the broader community — turning the conversation from a retrospective into a forward-looking dialogue about what comes next.

Speakers: Scott Stahl, PPL | Ryan Hoover, APS |Brad Jacobs, Itron

Field enablement technology has moved fast — from digital job briefings and energy-based observations to AI-assisted hazard recognition and unified safety platforms. But how far should it go, and what could go wrong if it goes too far, too fast?

In this panel, safety leaders from across the industry come together to discuss where field technology is headed next: predictive risk insights, consolidated EHS workflows, and AI-driven decision support at the point of work. They'll also confront the harder questions — where automation risks   eroding field judgment, how much should be trusted to a model versus a worker's experience, and what guardrails are needed to make sure technology strengthens safety culture rather than quietly undermining it.

Expect a candid conversation on both the promise and the pitfalls: what's genuinely transformative, what's overhyped, and what safety leaders need to get right before the next wave of field technology arrives.

Speakers: Jason Manley, Georgia Power | Jerry Convery, National Grid | Ryan Hoover, APS | Brad Jacobs, Itron
