Premier Utility Services, a leader in energy infrastructure inspections and a wholly-owned subsidiary of USIC, LLC, needed an efficient way to manage its fieldwork operations.
Recently, it took on an ambitious project to inspect over half a million gas meters across 3,300 miles of pipeline in New York. For energy infrastructure inspections of this scale, both precise data collection and effective team coordination were essential.
Fulcrum’s mobile platform allowed Premier to modernize its entire inspection process. Equipped with mobile devices, Premier’s technicians could now record inspection details on-site, capturing GPS-tagged photos, logging meter conditions, and immediately flagging any issues. As a result, handwritten notes were eliminated, reducing the chances of errors and ensuring data accuracy and reliability.
To enhance oversight, Premier integrated Fulcrum with CARTO, its GIS system, which enabled real-time visualization of field data. Project managers could monitor inspection progress instantly, prioritize critical areas, and maintain alignment across the entire team. This integration kept field inspections organized and allowed office staff to assign tasks and communicate updates instantly.
Fulcrum’s tools also provided Premier’s clients with access to live project dashboards. Clients could view inspection progress, download reports, and monitor essential metrics in real time. This transparency improved client satisfaction and streamlined the data-sharing process, making the entire workflow seamless.
With Fulcrum, Premier accelerated the pace of its energy infrastructure inspections, lowered labor costs, and increased data accuracy. By maintaining this efficiency, Premier completed projects faster and could pass on savings to its clients while maintaining quality.
