Engineering better outcomes with digital field asset inventories

For engineering projects, field asset inventories are essential to maintain infrastructure, track assets, and reduce costs. This case study shows how SMEC, a major global engineering firm, achieved these goals. Using Fulcrum’s mobile data platform, SMEC transformed its approach to inventories across diverse projects.

SMEC needed a flexible solution to replace manual methods and improve field data quality. Fulcrum’s platform allowed SMEC to create 95 customized data collection apps tailored to specific project needs. With these apps, SMEC recorded over 20,000 assets, enhancing data quality and improving project outcomes.

By using Fulcrum, SMEC captured asset information directly in the field. Teams documented assets, assessed conditions, and kept asset classifications accurate in real time. This eliminated manual errors, helping SMEC meet client expectations for timely, reliable data.

SMEC’s field asset inventories supported a range of projects, from road assessments to water quality programs. For example, SMEC documented road surfaces, recorded facility conditions, and audited water safety programs. Fulcrum’s tools enabled teams to capture this critical data quickly and accurately.

For SMEC’s engineering projects, this method provided faster results with fewer errors. With Fulcrum, SMEC reduced the time needed for asset documentation. This streamlined approach has become invaluable in meeting client deadlines while ensuring quality.

Asset inventories are key for organizations managing complex infrastructure, improving asset life, and reducing maintenance costs. SMEC’s approach shows how field inventories benefit organizations managing extensive assets.
