Inland Waterway Transportation

Case Description

Improving field operations through digital process automation.


CHALLENGE

Managing vessel inspections using manual and disconnected processes made it difficult to capture compliance information, track outstanding issues, and provide teams with real-time visibility. Limited internet connectivity on vessels added further challenges, impacting efficiency and delaying critical decisions

SOLUTION

We developed a mobile inspection solution using Microsoft Power Platform, enabling inspectors and SHEQ teams to complete inspections digitally from anywhere. With built-in offline capabilities, inspection data could be captured even without an internet connection and automatically synchronised once connectivity was restored, ensuring accurate and timely reporting.


RESULTS

The organisation transformed its inspection process with a faster, more efficient, and fully digital solution. Inspection data became instantly accessible, compliance issues were identified and resolved more quickly, and operational teams gained greater visibility into vessel readiness. The solution reduced administrative effort, improved decision-making, and established a scalable platform for future operational improvements
