Harnessing AI for field operations

The Fulcrum field data collection and process management platform streamlines field operations by supporting AI technologies that improve task efficiency, enhance data accuracy, and increase productivity. With built-in functionalities and the flexibility to integrate bespoke AI models, the platform adapts to meet your specific operational needs, ensuring seamless AI integration for optimal performance.

Built-in AI features

Fulcrum uses AI to FastFill forms, letting users capture and input data seamlessly by using dictation or photos. With FastFill, forms are automatically populated, so your field teams can focus on what matters — getting the job done. FastFill speeds up data entry across text, objects, and voice:

• Record observations and let AI convert voice notes into structured data, saving time and reducing manual work.

• Snap a picture of labels or serial numbers and let AI fill in the fields for asset tracking and inspections.

• Finally, capture field images and let AI identify and classify objects like pole attachments and equipment.

Custom AI integration capabilities

Fulcrum allows for the integration of your own AI models to suit your specific requirements, opening possibilities for enhancing field operations including:

• Asset recognition: Automate the logging of assets such as poles and manholes, minimizing manual input.
• Inspection validation: Verify inspection data even when offline, ensuring accuracy and completeness.
• Vegetation management: Monitor and manage vegetation impact on infrastructure using your AI algorithms.
• Safety checks: Use your AI model to automate the detection of hazards and compliance issues, enhancing safety protocols.

These capabilities demonstrate how Fulcrum can serve as a foundation for leveraging AI to increase operational efficiency and ensure data reliability.

Benefits of AI integration with Fulcrum

Utilizing AI with Fulcrum can lead to significant operational improvements. These improvements include reducing time spent on inspections and decreasing the need for manual data entry, lowering operational costs. For instance, using AI for automated object detection and label entry can save considerable time per inspection. This time saving translates to substantial annual savings and increased inspection capacity.
