NTS specializes in trench and traffic safety equipment, engineering, and OSHA-compliant training. Their sales team relied on bulky catalogs, printed data sheets, and Excel forms to support customers in the field. 

This created several obstacles:

• Accessibility: Remote job sites often lacked internet access, making it difficult to pull up technical data.

• Compliance: Contractors needed a reliable way to log excavation checklists to show OSHA due diligence.

• Always-Available Resource: Customers gained instant access to spec sheets, OSHA guidelines, training materials, and product data without needing to call the office.

• Efficiency: Engineering requests and site-specific worksheets were managed through manual Excel sheets and emails.

• Usability: With a diverse customer base, the solution had to be intuitive for both new engineers and seasoned contractors.

• Reduced Office Workload: NTS staff no longer had to field constant requests for catalogs, forms, or technical documents, freeing time for higher-value tasks.

• Consistent and Up-to-Date Content: All reps and customers accessed the latest approved materials, eliminating outdated or conflicting information.

• Faster Customer Support: With the mobile toolbox in hand, sales reps resolved customer questions in real time, strengthening relationships.

• Scalable for Growth: The platform supported multiple business units and training resources, making it easier for NTS to expand services without adding strain to office staff.

NTS needed more than a digital brochure, it needed a complete mobile field tool.

Command.App collaborated with NTS to design an enterprise-level mobile platform for iPad, iPhone, and Android. The app was white-labeled under the NTS brand and designed for both internal reps and contractors in the field.

Key Features:

• Catalog & Tab Data Access – 40+ product categories, 100+ solutions, and 14,000+ tab data sheets available offline.

• Jobsite Safety Tools – Daily excavation checklists, OSHA standards, sloping/benching calculators, soil classification quick reference.

• Real-Time Functionality – Ability to print, text, or email data, checklists, and worksheets directly from the app.

• Direct Requests – In-app engineered plan requests routed straight to NTS engineers.

• Multilingual Access – Spanish translations expanded usability.

• Offline-First Design – Critical for remote or no-connectivity jobsite environments.

This solution didn’t just digitize NTS resources, it created a handheld safety and compliance toolkit.

The app quickly became a vital tool across the construction industry, with 5,000+ installations nationwide.

• OSHA Compliance Win: Contractors could complete daily excavation checklists, time-stamp them, and instantly share with regulators—transforming compliance from a burden into a streamlined process.

• Sales Empowerment: Reps gained confidence by accessing the entire NTS portfolio and data sheets on-site.

• Customer Value: The app evolved into a must-have resource for contractors, helping NTS strengthen its role as the Trusted Advisor in trench and excavation safety.

• Reduced Office Workload: NTS staff no longer had to field constant requests for catalogs, forms, or technical documents, freeing time for higher-value tasks.
