Problem

Overground-box inspections relied on paper records and PDF submissions. Administrative handling and inconsistent data capture created rework.

Approach

SP Group enhanced its Digital Workforce App with an overground-box maintenance module. Standard digital workflows captured inspections at source, while AI-assisted image recognition helped assess maintenance quality. The initiative supported upkeep of more than 16,000 boxes.

Results

~30,000estimated staff-hours saved annually by the combined digital maintenance initiative, according to SP GroupCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

The savings estimate covered the combined maintenance initiative. SP Group did not isolate the contribution of image recognition.
