Summary
Far Reach helped A-Line E.D.S. (Environmental Decommission Service) turn its established paper processes into digitized workflows. The custom system reduces the opportunity for human errors, saves the team time, and allows access from anywhere.
After 14 years, A-Line’s previous paper-based manual workflows were well-refined, but they required additional steps to get the data into a Sharepoint spreadsheet so the lab and office could continue the process.
“Having to re-enter data that we took down out in the field slowed down the reporting process, especially on busy days when we are unloading trailers one after the other and did not have the chance to sit down at our computers,” said Jennifer Bridges, Inventory Lead at A-Line E.D.S.
“It just made more sense for us to have a software program that was able to adapt to our needs rather than our process changing to fit an already established software,” Bridges said. Thanks to established manual processes, A-Line had a good idea of what they wanted and needed in a custom system. The transition to a digital platform also provided the opportunity to identify and make improvements to those processes at the same time.
