What are Asset Inspections and Audits?

Asset inspections and audits involve the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to assess and evaluate various types of assets in different industries.

These UAVs (or drones) are equipped with advanced imaging technology and sensors, allowing them to capture high-resolution data from an aerial perspective.

By flying over the assets of interest, they provide valuable insights into the condition, reliability, and functionality of the surveyed assets.

This aerial data collection process allows inspectors to identify potential issues, defects, or anomalies that may not be easily visible from the ground.

This information is crucial for proactive maintenance planning and helping organisations address potential problems before they escalate and cause significant disruptions or failures.

Advantages of Asset Inspections and Audits Using Drones

  • Improved Safety: Drones eliminate the need for human inspectors to access hazardous or hard-to-reach areas. Eliminating the risk of accidents and injuries.
  • Extensive Coverage: Drones enable efficient and thorough inspections of large areas. Providing a holistic view of asset conditions from an aerial perspective.
  • Time and Cost Efficiency: Drone inspections save time and reduce costs compared to traditional methods for asset inspections and audits, as they can cover large areas, navigate complex structures, and reach heights that may be challenging or time-consuming for human inspectors.
  • High-Resolution Data: Drones equipped with advanced imaging technology have the capability to capture high-resolution data, offering detailed imagery and accurate information to effectively assess the conditions, integrity, and performance of inspected assets.
  • Quicker Data Collection: Drones facilitate rapid data collection, enabling faster analysis and timely decision-making for proactive maintenance planning.
  • Data Integration for Comparative Analysis: The data obtained from drone inspections can be seamlessly integrated into existing systems and platforms. This enables comparative analysis to evaluate deterioration, maintenance effectiveness, and operational performance of assets over time.
  • Enhanced Data Accuracy: Drones consistently capture precise and consistent data. Minimising errors and discrepancies in manual inspections and audits.
  • Proactive Maintenance: Timely and accurate data from drone inspections enables proactive maintenance strategies. Preventing failure, reducing downtime, and prolonging the longevity of assets.
  • Accessibility to Challenging Areas: Drones offer unparalleled accessibility to areas that are difficult to reach or inaccessible through traditional means. Their ability to navigate tall structures, remote locations, or hazardous environments provides detailed insights for a wide variety of assets in different locations.

Accurate and Comprehensive Data Collection

Our asset inspection and auditing capabilities enable us to provide you with a comprehensive suite of accurate data that allows you to gain extremely valuable insights from the inspected assets.

This includes:

  • Visual Data: We capture high-resolution images and videos of your assets, providing a detailed visual record of their condition. This data helps in effectively identifying any visible damages, defects, or maintenance needs.
  • Detailed Structural Analysis: Our drone inspections involve the use of accurate sensors to gather  information and data that provides a thorough evaluation of the overall health and stability of your assets.
  • Performance Insights: Our data collection encompasses crucial performance parameters of your assets, including operational data, efficiency metrics, and functionality analysis. This valuable data aids in evaluating asset performance, identifying areas for improvement, and optimising their operational efficiency.
  • Environmental Insights: During our inspections, we gather essential environmental data, including temperature, humidity, and air quality. This data is instrumental in evaluating the influence of environmental factors on your assets.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Our inspections place a strong emphasis on adhering to relevant regulations and standards. We diligently gather data regarding compliance requirements, documentation, and adherence to safety protocols. This focus ensures that your assets meet the necessary compliance standards, promoting a safe and compliant operational environment.
  • Historical Data Management: We meticulously preserve historical data pertaining to your assets, which includes previous inspection reports, repairs, and upgrades. This invaluable information enables us to track the performance of your assets over time, facilitating informed decision-making regarding future maintenance and investments. By analyzing this historical data, we can identify trends, patterns, and areas of improvement to ensure optimal asset management strategies.

We ensure the streamlined acquisition, processing, and analysis of this data, enabling you to gain valuable insights for informed decision making.
