Case Study: Yale Lifting Solutions achieves reliable large-scale remote asset inspections and 60% faster admin efficiency with MobiWork

Large Scale Asset Inspections in Remote Areas Made Easy

Yale Lifting Solutions, part of the Columbus McKinnon group and based in Gauteng, South Africa, provides heavy-duty lifting equipment and conducts roughly 1,000 on-site inspections daily across remote mining and industrial sites. Faced with high-volume electronic forms, limited or sporadic network connectivity, poor employee visibility in the field, and an outdated inflexible system, Yale needed a mobile, offline-capable field service platform — so they partnered with MobiWork.

MobiWork deployed its field service platform to Yale Lifting Solutions, importing large data sets, enabling offline form capture (images, geo-tags, signatures), custom legal/calibration fields, routing and real-time reporting, and rapid technician check-ins. The solution was live in under a month, saved thousands in custom-build costs, handled Yale’s 1,000 daily inspections, improved field visibility and reporting, and delivered a 60% increase in automatic time and administration efficiency.
