- Digital communications tool for project teams now available on Google Cloud Marketplace
- Connecting people, process, technology and infrastructure for Google Cloud customers
- Official launch announced at the Interchange Annual Conference, Google Prism stage
SymTerra, the digital communication tool built for on-site project teams, has announced its partnership with Google Cloud at this year’s Interchange Annual Conference in Manchester Central. The new integration on Google Cloud Marketplace offers the SymTerra tool to Google Cloud’s construction, utility and transport customers, enabling project data flow across supply and labour chains for more effective site and project reporting.
SymTerra’s record-right-first-time site reporting tool captures data at the point of work, to eliminate risk and hidden costs that result from reporting inaccuracies, difficulty accessing historical data, and weak chain of evidence required for commercial defensibility. By putting digital tools in the hands of those on site to capture data at point of work, SymTerra eliminates the industry’s over-reliance on consumer communication tools, to make absent, incomplete, outdated & incorrect data a thing of the past.
In the construction, rail and water industry, effective communication is paramount to enabling data flows across supply and labour chains. The foundation of every project, and fundamental to every business, is robust data; and yet many project teams are forced to rely on consumer messaging tools for site reporting and asset updates because other options are simply not fit for purpose.
SymTerra co-founder Sarah Crawley commented; “Data is critical to the commercial resilience and viability of the transport and infrastructure sector, with access to open data standards empowering the entire supply chain; democratising data is one of the foundations on which the future of multi-modal transport will be built. None of this can happen without site teams having direct access to digital tools that capture real time data, updates and reporting from site, which is why this strategic partnership with Google Cloud is such an important catalyst for the integration and digitisation of transport infrastructure.
“We’re looking forward to meeting Google Cloud partners at this year’s Interchange Conference, and helping more Google Cloud customers deliver projects with better reporting for future resilience.”
“Bringing Symterra to Google Cloud Marketplace will help customers quickly deploy, manage, and grow its digital communications platform on Google Cloud’s trusted, global infrastructure,” said Anne-Marie Lamb, Director, Manufacturing & Industrial, UKI, Google Cloud. “SymTerra can now securely scale and support customers on their digital transformation journeys.”
As a Google Cloud partner, SymTerraoffers customers the ability to:
- Digitise their forms, reports, inspections, audits and checklists
- Collect consistent data easily from site teams and subcontractors
- Share professional reports
- Analyse results and take action
- Link and share their asset and activity schedule with their site teams
The new integration with Google Cloud launched on Wednesday 28 February 2024 at Google Prism, the interactive immersion zone focused on data and AI in transport, where SymTerra is speaking, alongside infrastructure specialist D2 Global, on ‘building the data pipeline for lost assets’. Catch SymTerra on the Google Prism stage on Wednesday 28 February at 10.20am.
