Pole Replacement Design
Osmose can integrate pole replacement design into your current pole inspection program and provide experienced technicians and designers, armed with engineering tools, to support the turnkey design of pole replacements. We customize our processes and deliverables to seamlessly integrate with your work management systems and procedures.
Common pole owner challenges include:
- Struggling to meet internal or mandated timeframes for replacement of reject poles
- Multiple hand-offs between internal departments to support current workflow
Pole replacements, overloaded poles, and reject poles require engineers and designers to create a work order and design in order for crews to replace the pole. Osmose integrates this solution with your pole inspection program to seamlessly take you from an inspection to a construction-ready work order. Osmose can:
-
Manage a full turnkey process incorporated with your pole inspection program
-
Leverage the inspection field visit to also collect engineering data
-
Reduce costs and avoid backlogs of poles requiring replacement
-
Provide technicians on and off-site who can more cost-effectively tackle your pole replacement design work
-
Coordinate transfers with your licensees, including notifications and make-ready
This proven strategy drives business value as renewed focus and ownership is applied to managing your pole assets while freeing up utility personnel to focus on the core tasks essential to running your business.
