Use-cases for markings

There are multiple different use-cases for markings and filters in Site Management. Risk management and site inspection are just two to mention, both will be highlighted in this page.

Risk management

When project has begun or is about to begin, risk management is one of most important tasks. Risk management is traditionally done document based, meaning that there is just text, maybe reference to a location.

Site Management turns the mentality upside down, what if all the risks are fixed to a location or an area.

Create a marking to a specific location by exact coordinates or draw an area to highlight the risk. Give the marking a title and more detailed description. The most important thing is to add a tag, for example “Risk”. Use the priorities etc., to further describe the risk.

Once there are multiple markings, with a “Risk” -tag, there is a possibility to create a filter which only shows markings with “Risk” -tag. This leads to an easy and visual risk management tool.

Site inspection

Site inspections are done for example daily or weekly. The goal is to find possible areas that might cause issues and help plan ahead. Whether there is something blocking the next workphase or the detour for the site is not guided well enough.

During the next site inspection open Site Management from a mobile device. While inspecting it is possible to create markings to correct locations, even add pictures to describe the issue. Allowing everyone within the site to see the possible issues. A transparent way of communicating what is happening on the site.
