SenseHawk’s Solar Digital Platform offers end-to-end management of solar asset lifecycles. Customers see value with SenseHawk in:
Pre-construction evaluation and process optimization: The platform approach enables the unification of multiple processes and data into a single GIS-supported view for dashboarding, land data management, design option management, BOQs, approvals, and more.
Construction management: Combined with the map view, chat, and digital forms, the SDP provides improved communications between project teams enabling early issue detection and onsite resolution, automated progress reports, connects engineering drawings and schemas to components on site, and accelerates processes.
Operations and maintenance: SenseHawk brings all stakeholders to a single interface. Teams work off of the same map-based tasks, with access to all required data mapped to a digital twin, significantly improving new site ramp-up. Customers save time and effort with preventive maintenance schedules, alarm handling and performance visualization.
SenseHawk, along with RIL’s other investments in New Energy, will be synergistic and create unique solutions with higher value to customers.
