ALATRAC
Building the Perfect Data Collection Platform
Our Utility Services field teams criss-cross the U.S. inspecting thousands of wood utility poles each week and recording data for each pole. The data collected differs by project, depending on the customer, state regulations, and countless other variables.
Given the nature of this work and the amount of data our customers need, it is essential for us to have a robust, flexible and customizable platform for large-scale data collection and management – that also offers the ability to manage the remote workforce responsible for collecting the data.
Fortunately, we have a technology/software team with big brains (and we mean really big brains) plus years of real-world experience refining what is one of the best mass data collection tools available, Alatrac.
While it has been used by our Utility Services teams to collect and deliver millions of highly accurate pole inspection records, Alatrac effortlessly gathers and handles large amounts of data from across the spectrum, regardless of what that data pertains to. Yes, it is a stellar utility pole inspection platform, but Alatrac can collect, manage and deliver data for anything you need to inspect or inventory. And we said this previously, but it bears repeating, Alatrac also helps you manage the workforce assigned to collect the data.
It may have been designed by our biggest brains, but the beauty of Alatrac is that it is specifically built to be easy to use for everyone. It has recently been put into use by Alamon’s Outside Plant Services and Safety departments, and once beta testing is complete, Alatrac will be licensable by the public as a standalone data collection & management tool.
