Automated EHS Client Onboarding Kickoff

When a new EHS consulting contract is signed in DocuSign, WebRun reads the client and engagement details, navigates to VelocityEHS to begin setting up the client account and initial audit or inspection scope, and drafts a professional welcome and kickoff email in Gmail for the assigned consultant to review and send.

In short

How do I automatically kick off EHS client onboarding when a contract is signed?

When a new EHS consulting contract is signed in DocuSign, WebRun extracts the client details, creates the client account and engagement scope in VelocityEHS, and drafts a professional welcome email in Gmail with kickoff next steps. The consultant reviews and approves before anything is sent to the new client.

  • New clients are active in VelocityEHS within hours of contract signing, not days
  • Every new client receives a consistent, professional welcome with clear next steps
  • Consultants spend minutes reviewing a ready draft, not writing a kickoff email from scratch

Questions, answered

Will it send the welcome email to the new client automatically?

No. The welcome email is saved as a Gmail draft for the assigned consultant to review, personalize if needed, and send. Nothing reaches the client without your approval.

What does it set up in VelocityEHS during onboarding?

It creates or updates the client account with the contact details from the signed contract and opens the first engagement record in the relevant VelocityEHS module, whether that is audits, incidents, chemical management, or training.

What if the contract is for a returning client, not a new one?

If the client already has a VelocityEHS account, WebRun updates the existing record and creates a new engagement scope rather than creating a duplicate client entry.
