Clearing a Compliance Backlog from Field Photos

ComplianceAIAsset Management

The problem

Environmental rules required certain older equipment to be identified and replaced, but the key details existed only in field photos and videos, many of them worn or hard to read. Crews kept getting sent back to check the same equipment.

Our approach

  • Pulled the identifying details from photos and videos, including badly worn equipment
  • Matched what was found against the asset records
  • Prioritized the biggest gaps and documented a repeatable process

Outcome

The backlog was cleared, compliance work moved forward, and repeat site visits dropped sharply.

How this helps you

Today this would be an AI image-recognition project. Having done it by hand, we know where these systems struggle, which is what makes an AI build actually work.
