Site Material Control
Job #: 016Oil & Gas The Challenge
Module Facility with multiple projectsNo single material control IS systemLoss of visibility of material post issue to construction Productivity and schedule impacts due to material readinessLost and refabricated materials
16 | www.AtlasRFID.com
Site Material Control
The SolutionPreload fabricator spool list prior to receiving spoolsTag spools during receiving with barcodes and active RFID tagsTablet based receiving and O,S & DUse VMR and mobile devices to locate spoolsProvide engineers a tool to request materials from warehouseTrack spools to the “hook”
Job #: 016Oil & Gas

Site Material Control
The ResultsReduced warehouse labor cost $700,000 annuallyStandardized material control processes across all projectsMaterial progress visible to installationReduced re-fabrication and re-procementReduced material readinenss impacts on directsReduced safety exposureSOP for facility today

Moving Forward
29 | www.AtlasRFID.com
Moving Forward
Global construction will require global tracking
SuppliersFabricators and Module Yards
Larger projects will require more stakeholders
Need for transparency across multiple systemsBetter planning requires better informationEH&S risk minimized through working smarterBetter quality and regulatory compliance
