Outcomes in Construction & Field Services

Construction & Field ServicesBusiness Applications

Seventy-five hundred technicians, one service platform

A global building technologies and infrastructure business — Global

The challenge

A regionally distributed ERP prevented economies of scale and global standardisation. Repeated visits — truck rolls — were driven by technicians arriving without the information or equipment the job needed.

What was done

Dynamics 365 Field Service was rolled out to connect field technicians, service coordinators and customers with shared data, and to assign work dynamically between staff and subcontractors.

7,500Service technicians
2,000Subcontractors coordinated
1M+Buildings served
  • Technicians arriving fully briefed and correctly equipped, reducing repeat visits.
  • Work assigned dynamically across employed staff and subcontractors.
  • Customers given clear insight into service contract lifecycle and ticket status.
  • Global standardisation replacing a regionally distributed ERP.

Drone line inspection from three days to overnight

A regional electric utility — United States

The challenge

Monitoring power lines with camera-equipped drones produced large volumes of imagery that took three days to stitch and analyse, delaying every decision that depended on the result.

What was done

More than 275 automation solutions were developed with Power Automate across the business, including automated image stitching and analysis for the drone inspection programme.

120,000Hours saved annually

A global elevator and escalator manufacturer and service provider — Global

The challenge

The organization wanted its own people solving business problems with their own ideas, but supporting thousands of makers and keeping the resulting estate coherent is a genuine problem at scale.

What was done

Power Platform was selected to drive digital transformation, with a Copilot Studio agent built to guide makers through development, and a central application catalogue for reuse.

32,000Applications developed
3,000+Makers supported
33%Less contract handling time

Robotic process automation for repetitive field administration

A heavy equipment distributor and service business — Global

The challenge

Manual and repetitive processes were consuming staff time on administration that added no value but could not simply be dropped.

What was done

A robotic process automation solution was built using Power Automate with AI Builder to handle the repetitive processing directly.
