Intro

Vast Networks

Intro: Utility companies operate vast networks of transmission lines spanning diverse terrains and weather conditions. Engineers, lone workers or small teams, are routinely tasked with maintenance, repairs, and inspections in areas that pose potential risks.

challenges

Engineer Safety

Engineers often work alone or in small teams in remote locations, making it challenging to ensure their safety in case of emergencies or adverse conditions. The company needed a reliable way to track the real-time locations of engineers and receive alerts in case of unexpected deviations or emergencies. Effective communication was essential for providing assistance to engineers and sharing important updates or warnings related to their work environment.

solution

EVERYWHERE Hub

The EVERYWHERE Hub served as the centralized platform for location monitoring and managing engineer safety. While the inReach® Mini 2 constantly tracked the engineer's location via the Iridium satellite network, it transmitted data to the EVERYWHERE Mobile App to provide two-way messaging – allowing them to communicate with supervisors, support staff, or emergency responders. 

Geofences were established around specific work areas or transmission line segments. If an engineer entered or exited a predefined geofenced area, the system would generate an alert and notify relevant parties.

Scheduled Check-ins

Scheduled Check-ins: Engineers were required to perform scheduled check-ins at specific intervals. If a check-in was missed, supervisors and safety personnel would receive an immediate alert, indicating a potential problem.
