So a significant advantage of collaborating with KaarbonTech is that all of our information and data that is logged from our risk‑based model is all easily available on the West Berkshire website. Members of the public can log on to their interactive map and check when the asset is next due to be cleansed. This has reduced West Berkshire’s workload because they get fewer enquiries from members of the public. And it’s also quick, easy access to data through both websites.
The KaarbonTech solution that we have used and that has helped us a lot is the risk‑based model for the gully cleansing. With KaarbonTech and West Berkshire, we built a program analysing the data that KaarbonTech supplied a survey on, and created a program for six‑monthly, annual, bi‑annual and four‑yearly assets. So it’s a four‑year program.
A unique aspect of KaarbonTech that has been very valuable to us is that we’ve managed to build multiple programs on the same system. So we’ve got a trash screen program, grip program, and routine gully cleansing program all running from the same system. KaarbonTech have managed to change the channels for us to show up in different colours, so it’s easy to use when you’re out on the ground. Ditches are different colours and grips are different colours, so it’s visually easy for the lads on the ground.
My initial experience of getting started with KaarbonTech — KaarbonTech had just recently been implemented onto our contract, and another supervisor showed me how to use the system, and I found it very easy to use. I had a half‑day training course with KaarbonTech, which was a very good course, and it taught me little tips and tricks on how to use the system better operationally to benefit my needs.
Before partnering with KaarbonTech, all of our data for our gully cleansing and drainage network was on spreadsheets in Excel. So when we did inspections, we had to input them all into Excel. Now that we’ve got KaarbonTech, it’s all on the one system where we can see all the data live while they’re cleansing.
