Trendsic built FlowLab a custom NFC- and AI-powered platform that replaced paper-based inspections with centralized inventory, real-time asset tracking, and instant access to documentation across the chemical plants and manufacturing facilities its technicians serve.
FlowLab, LLC is a full-service, environmentally friendly calibration provider for all industries that use Fluid Flow Meters, offering both on-site/mobile, self-sufficient Calibration Labs engineered to deliver superior precision and enhanced productivity.
As FlowLab expanded its operations across chemical plants and manufacturing facilities, it needed a centralized way to manage its growing inventory, assign and document inspections, and provide technicians with instant access to specifications and instructions — rather than relying on paper records and a clipboard in the field.
Trendsic was contracted to build a unified geolocation- and AI-powered platform for inventory, task management, and documentation — a custom software solution for one of Louisiana’s industrial calibration specialists. See how Trendsic serves businesses across Baton Rouge.
Outdated systems and procedures left FlowLab’s technicians managing thousands of pieces of equipment by hand.
Large volumes of inventory, assets, and mechanical equipment were managed without a structured system in place to provide support, schedule maintenance, or request replacements.
Technicians walked through chemical plants and manufacturing facilities reviewing thousands of pieces of equipment with only clipboards of specification documents and inspection instructions.
Task assignment, documentation, and instructions were all handled on paper and managed manually, with no central repository to rely on.
Trendsic created a unique, streamlining platform combining geolocation services and artificial intelligence to manage projects and inventory.
Assets are equipped with NFC tags or QR codes, enabling instant access to their profiles in the field, all managed in a centralized records system with documentation maintained for each item.
Create projects for inspection or maintenance efforts, assign assets for evaluation, and allocate specific tasks to users — providing clear visibility into which assets are due and who is responsible for each.
Managers observe team member productivity charts in real time and access real-time maps of asset locations — surfacing bottlenecks early enough to reallocate work before they cause delays.
This same approach to tailored development, geolocation services, and artificial intelligence is embedded in every custom software and automation service Trendsic delivers.
By combining tailored development, geolocation services, and artificial intelligence, Trendsic helped bring FlowLab’s vision of operational efficiency to life—eliminating clipboard-based fieldwork, identifying bottlenecks, reducing human error, and improving accuracy. It’s the same kind of custom, reliable solution Trendsic delivers to clients across Louisiana and nationwide.
Is untracked inventory or paper-based fieldwork slowing your team down? Trendsic can build a custom geolocation- and AI-powered platform to modernize your inventory, task management, and documentation.
