VicTrack, the owner of Victoria’s transport assets, was facing challenges with their paper-based inspection system. The traditional method brought several issues, including delays in getting the results to the office, the need for manual transcription of information into their maintenance management system, and the need to match up photos captured on digital cameras. Additionally, their spreadsheets were often complicated and subject to tampering by contractors, resulting in a lot of work to extract value from the information. Their Windows Mobile devices required docking in the office for synchronizing and were not necessarily intuitive. The requirement to dock them in the office to get data off them meant days or weeks of data collection was always susceptible to being lost whilst out of the office.
