Effective road inspections are critical for ensuring safety and long-term infrastructure quality. This case study highlights how Trimat Material Testing used Fulcrum to achieve efficient, accurate digital road inspections for its clients. Trimat, a civil engineering company, specializes in concrete and asphalt inspections for roadways and runways.
Previously, Trimat inspectors relied on outdated, manual data entry systems, leading to delays and frequent errors. Field teams would perform inspections, but then needed to enter data later, wasting valuable time. Fulcrum’s mobile platform, however, allowed Trimat to shift to fully digital road inspections, eliminating the need for re-entry and saving hours.
With Fulcrum, Trimat developed customized digital forms to capture inspection details directly in the field. Inspectors could log concrete and asphalt conditions, upload images, and record GPS coordinates in real time. Managers reviewed reports instantly, allowing for quality control before inspectors left the site, reducing follow-up visits.
This digital road inspections approach also enabled faster report generation and remote approvals. Clients received timely, detailed reports, increasing Trimat’s responsiveness and accelerating payments. The intuitive interface also shortened training time, so new inspectors quickly adapted to the platform and maintained high data accuracy.
Digital road inspections offer immense value for any organization handling high-volume road maintenance. Fulcrum’s solution empowered Trimat to streamline its workflow, improve data quality, and pass time savings on to its clients. This case study demonstrates how the right technology enhances inspection accuracy and efficiency, benefiting both teams and clients.
