  • Adhering to strict data collection protocols, including the exclusive use of a proprietary asset management tool.

  • Managing potential site access restrictions and escort requirements during surveys.

  • Handling uncertainty in site conditions, including unmanned buildings and varied infrastructure setups.

Our Approach
  • Deployed experienced survey teams with security clearances, ensuring smooth access to restricted areas.

  • Used approved data collection tools to ensure compliance with internal security policies.

  • Maintained real-time communication with project stakeholders to report access issues and safety concerns.

  • Captured comprehensive M&E asset data, ensuring full visibility for future maintenance planning.

  • Implemented structured site planning, reducing disruptions and optimising resource allocation.

Results
  • Successfully surveyed all designated locations, overcoming complex security barriers.

  • Improved asset visibility across air and naval divisions, aiding in future maintenance scheduling.

  • Delivered an accurate and structured asset register, supporting long-term infrastructure management.

  • Ensured full compliance with security and data collection standards.

Conclusion

Our expertise in M&E asset data collection allowed for the successful execution of this high-security project. By overcoming logistical and security challenges, we helped enhance asset visibility and long-term operational efficiency across critical defense infrastructure.
