Before

A record kept by hand, at a volume that had outgrown it

  • Spreadsheet updates and status chased by phone across a fast-moving shopfloor.
  • Data-wiping requirements that had to be evidenced, not simply completed.
  • Highly variable asset condition met with a single fixed workflow.
  • Client reports assembled manually, on request, by S2S staff.
After

One system of record, captured as the work happens

  • Data is captured on the shopfloor as work happens; the manual update step is gone.
  • Workflow rules enforce the correct sequence for each asset type and condition.
  • A routing engine sends each asset down the right path based on its attributes.
  • Clients pull their own status and reports without contacting the team.

What we built

Processing application

Built for shopfloor speed — it captures data as work happens rather than after it.

Dynamic routing engine

Condition, type and size decide each asset’s path. S2S configure the rules and deploy them immediately.

Client portal

Self-service access to asset status, processing records and reports, in real time.

Single data layer

Both applications share one data layer, so information is captured once and reads the same everywhere.

Results

1.1m+
assets fully traced through their lifecycle
