Introduction

When industrial business Galvanising Hawke’s Bay partnered with us at Foxbyte, the goal was clear: move beyond standard compliance protocols and embed a living, responsive system that brings their Health & Safety culture to the next level. We delivered a secure, custom-built AI system created to support every team member - in their language - and with the knowledge they need on-demand.

The Challenge

Galvanising Hawke’s Bay faced a layered challenge:

  • Their workforce included diverse language backgrounds, and questions often slowed response time or created misunderstandings.

  • Legacy systems for knowledge sharing and training were siloed, dated, and reactive rather than proactive.

  • They needed a solution that could keep pace with a dynamic site environment, supporting staff in the moment (via phone, tablet or computer) - and be trusted, secure and intuitive enough that adoption would be real.

  • They also wanted to strengthen culture, engagement and confidence across the whole team - not just tick boxes.

The Solution

Foxbyte stepped in with a purpose-built AI knowledge-system tailored to Galvanising Hawke’s Bay:

  • We built a secure, private AI chat system that carries the company’s full H&S knowledge base - policies, procedures, site rules, best-practice examples.

  • The system allows any team member to ask questions in their own language and get accurate, immediate answers.

  • Even more engaging: the AI is configured to “be” their team leader - the team member interacts with their leader’s voice/character inside the chat, creating familiarity, trust and immediacy.

  • Deployment is cross-platform (phone, tablet, computer), so guidance is reachable on-site, on the go or in training environments.

  • We prioritised data security and system resilience, meeting industrial-grade standards and ensuring the knowledge base remains bespoke to the client, with future-proofing for updates and growth.

Human connection remains at the core.
Of course, their team leader is also available in person - the AI simply extends that same guidance and support into every moment of the workday.

The Impact

Having the AI in place is already delivering results:

  • Team members are working more confidently and collaboratively, because the “go-to” for H&S and questions is immediate, familiar and on-demand.

  • Efficiency has improved: instead of waiting for site-leaders or paper manuals, questions are answered instantly via the AI assistant.

  • Culture is strengthened: language barriers are reduced, knowledge is democratised, and every team member has access to the same trusted information.

  • Leadership feels reinforced: the “team leader in AI form” helps embed consistency, tone and safety mindset.

  • Galvanising Hawke’s Bay is now ahead of the curve in using AI for good - not just for automation, but to elevate human experience and safety outcomes.
