'It will never work on our site.' Is this familiar to you as well? Experience showed us that it is often used to slow down digitalization; however, early adopters are demonstrating that an intuitive UI and a highly customizable solution for every terminal puts a smile on the face of even the most stubborn person towards digitization.
Working digitally does not have to be a lengthy process, as maybe some of your front-line staff fear. Results can be achieved very quickly, and perhaps the points below will bring more reassurance to you and your colleagues.
Why do tank storage terminals need digital inspections solutions
Working with some of the biggest energy tank storage on the market has given us clear insights into the processes that disrupt operations due to delays, lack of compliance, or miscommunication which oftentimes can cause severe safety issues.
Dealing with prolonged safety audits due to paper checklists stockpiles was no longer in line with the customers’ vision for the future.
Goals such as solving safety, compliance, sustainability, and efficiency come as defaults now for tank storage companies.
With Smartflow, customers have the freedom to roll out existing templates from other terminals (operator rounds, permit inspections, asset handover forms, punch lists, tank inspections) or build/create their own templates.
On top of the standardized checklists that are ready to use in our library, customers can fully configure their workflows to improve collaboration between all users and roles.
