How Onshore Companies Changed the Way Equipment Issues Reach the Shop

Company: Onshore Companies

Location: Gulf Coast

Speaker: Ben Benoit, Operations Manager

Industry: Heavy Civil Construction, Hauling, Marine Work, Commercial Projects

The Challenge

Onshore Companies operates across heavy civil construction, hauling, marine work, and commercial projects throughout the Gulf Coast. With equipment constantly moving between job sites, getting accurate inspection data back to the service team quickly was a priority.

The old process relied on phone calls, word of mouth, and manual reports that often got lost or delayed.

How Clue Helped

Clue's asset-specific QR codes transformed the inspection process. Operators scan a QR code on the equipment, report issues with photos and notes, and the service team gets the information instantly.

"QR codes have been a game changer for us with regards to operator inspections. Being able to get real-time data from the field on failed items when operators do their inspections."
Ben Benoit, Operations Manager

"The information is at our fingertips from a management standpoint. We can readily identify issues with the equipment, dispatch the mechanics, get the parts needed to make the repairs, and keep our uptime going."
Ben Benoit, Operations Manager

"They don't have to go find the piece of equipment in the directory. They just scan the QR code. It brings them to the specific equipment that they're on and they can report the issue. They can attach photos. They can attach notes."
Ben Benoit, Operations Manager

Results

The reporting process is now direct and accountable. Operators own their reports, the service team arrives prepared, and nothing falls through the cracks.

"It makes it easier not only for them to report and make sure that what they're reporting is getting back to the service department. It also makes it easier for my service team to better go out prepared to make those repairs."
Ben Benoit, Operations Manager

"The operator's in control of his own destiny. That was a huge reason why not only did I buy into it, but I'm also investing into it for the future."
Ben Benoit, Operations Manager
