Honeywell Forge Inspection Rounds digitizes and standardizes workflows for field workers, leading to increased productivity, improved accuracy and reduced unplanned downtime.
Honeywell has unveiled new software to help field workers in the oil and gas, mining, and aerospace industries digitize equipment inspection programs, which can increase productivity, improve accuracy and minimize unplanned asset downtime.
Honeywell Forge Inspection Rounds is a mobile solution for field operations that improves technician operator rounds by enabling users to make informed, data-driven decisions. The cloud-based software allows plant supervisors and field technicians to replace manual and paper-based processes with standardized digital processes.
“Honeywell Forge Inspection Rounds is designed to digitize the deskless worker, eliminating the need for field inspectors to maintain tedious paperwork and minimizing the reliance on error-prone work processes,” said Jason Merszei, vice president and general manager, Honeywell Connected Enterprise, Workers. “This software is easy to deploy and enables industrial companies to seamlessly connect to their workers in the field.”
Technicians inspecting equipment in the field can access the software on a mobile device to review and input data with greater detail and accuracy, which can help detect potential problems and prevent costly unplanned downtime. In addition, supervisors can create, schedule, maintain and analyze their operators’ rounds. This allows facility managers to quickly locate operators in the field, validate who is performing a specific task and determine whether that task has been completed properly.
Traditional, paper-based inspections can be inefficient, leading to missed equipment checks and other errors. Workers using Honeywell Forge Inspection Rounds have centralized data at their fingertips, accessible in real time. They are guided through the solution to follow approved, standardized work processes. Automating and streamlining processes can create additional benefits, including greater operational efficiency, increased productivity, improved safety for workers, enhanced compliance, reduced costs and better worker satisfaction.

Facility management and construction specialists, Oakley Industrial Services, reports improved vehicle utilisation and more accurate job scheduling since fitting the routeMASTER tracking system from AGM Telematics.
Facility management and construction specialists, Oakley Industrial Services, reports improved vehicle utilisation and more accurate job scheduling since fitting the routeMASTER tracking system from AGM Telematics.
“We started with the system about a year ago with the aim of improving the way we allocate vehicles to particular assignments," says director Natalie Clarke. "Previously we would spend quite a lot of time trying to locate drivers and would have to calculate when they could get to the next job.”
Now, Natalie and the team can monitor each vehicle’s movements in real time from the moment they switch the engine on until the end of the day.
“We have the ability to switch vehicles from job to job with no uncertainty regarding the optimum route to take. We can also keep tabs on individual driving history and always know how long each driver has been behind the wheel. “
This, according to Natalie, helps to maintain cost effective journey plans, reduce time wastage and save fuel. Furthermore, the traffic office can provide customers with accurate and instant ETA information at any time.
“For every project” concludes Natalie Clarke, “we provide detailed risk and method statements along with safety planning and security provision. Accuracy and safety lies at the heart of what we do and it makes good sense to bring our fleet control in line with general policy. Certainly, the routeMASTER system provides a number of benefits in this regard and it fits well with our overall approach of supplying a reliable and efficient backup service in the field.”
Oakley Industrial Services is based in the Midlands and provides a nationwide service which covers all aspects of facility management including roof maintenance and gulley clearing, fall protection, drain jetting, general façade maintenance and wall cladding.
