What were the challenges Adman faced?
To service emergency and maintenance contracts for the Translink framework, the company needed a solution that provided in office teams the ability to send work orders to remote squads operating 24/7 and log the exact times and dates service work was carried out.
The project management team were using manual processes and printing out high volumes of documentation, RAMS (Risk Assessment Method Statement), parameters and maps for service contracts. Inductions were also carried out using paper.
A lack of automation and digitisation meant that processes were even more time consuming and not a good use of valuable project management resources.
Not being able to provide vital information quickly to remote teams especially when they are working on emergency projects impacts teams’ ability to complete projects in a timely fashion.
How did Skylark Control help?
The Skylark platform enables Adman to provide a faster and more streamlined work order process that increases response time for emergency and ongoing maintenance works.
- Adman can now ensure teams always have access to the most up to date information, at the touch of a button rather than having to deal with cumbersome paperwork, and time saved can be spent on more productive tasks
- Critical RAMS (Risk Assessment Methods) revisions. parameters and maps can be easily uploaded to the app securely, and teams notified about amendments immediately
- Improved health and safety compliance as workers can complete inductions via the mobile app easily when teams arrive onsite and receive alerts for monthly reinductions, which might easily have been overlooked
- Project managers can also now provide accurate service order reports with real time check-in and check-out times for the contract work carried out for their client
