The biggest challenge before going digital: logs were "hand-written on a piece of paper"
“When we first started doing logs... it was hand-written on a piece of paper that we then put into a binder,” Alex explained. However, after switching to EDGEauditor’s terrain management platform, his team can fill out their logs from the convenience of their mobile phones right on the hill. “Overall, it’s been super helpful to switch it all over to being digital,” he added.
Another overall operational challenge Alex touches on, is “finding and retaining experienced people” – adding that “I think everybody’s in a similar boat... In my world, people are the most important tools to do our job.” And while this continues to pose a challenge, Alex explained that managing their operations digitally “has made everything easier... in that aspect.”
