Newmetrix Metrics Definition
Metrics Overview
Newmetrix’s built-in analytics capabilities aim to provide customers with insight into their data and enable them to unlock the potential of analytics throughout their organization.
Newmetrix’s analytics enable companies to harness the power of their data to measure and manage multiple aspects of risk in construction through the following:
- In-product insights dashboards
- Comprehensive BI dashboard services
- APIs
The metrics we are providing encapsulate our service offerings across Safety Monitoring and Safety Observations.
For both our offerings, the focus of the metrics we have developed is two-fold:
- Capture user behavior and activity with our platform throughout their engagement lifecycle
- Provide risk-related measurements that allow customers to quantify their jobsite risk.
Note: Throughout this document, we are referring to our customers’ image data as Assets.
Safety Monitoring Metrics
Activity Metrics
The main goal of the activity metrics is to track our customer’s activity in our platform and provide insight into how their activity is affecting their project and organizational performance throughout the lifecycle.

Metric Calculation Levels
Our metrics are calculated at multiple levels and time periods to provide our customers’ flexibility in how they are capturing their insights.
The metric level indicates the business level granularity that a metric is measured as. We currently support calculations for project, project group (if configured), organization and user levels.
The time period buckets in place represent the date ranges for which a specific metric is calculated. We currently support calculations for the last 1, 7, 30, 60, 90 days and All time (historic calculation).
The metrics are calculated and refreshed nightly and are generally available for consumption by 7 AM ET.
Below is detailed information on calculation levels supported for the various types of metrics:
Safety Monitoring Metrics
