Taking field engineers off paper, permanently
A utility replaced clipboard inspections with an offline-first mobile platform used at 900 sites.
- Sites live
- 900+
- Field adoption
- 94%
- Compliance reporting
- 2 wks → 1 day
The challenge
Field inspections were recorded on paper and re-keyed days later. Half the sites had no reliable signal, which had killed two previous digital attempts.
What we did
- 01Designed offline-first from the start, with conflict resolution built into the sync layer
- 02Ran design sessions on site, in the weather, with the engineers using it
- 03Shipped to one region as a genuine pilot, with a real option to stop
- 04Integrated with the existing asset management system rather than replacing it
- 05Built the compliance report generator the regulator actually asks for
The outcome
Inspection data now lands the same day, report preparation dropped from two weeks to a morning, and adoption hit 94% within a quarter.
