Data Management Services
SUMMIT has gained significant expertise over the years in understanding and implementing effective data management tools and processes, as well as for providing our customers with the information that they need, in the format they need, when they need it. We pride ourselves in delivering information accurately in a timely and user friendly/customer specific format.
- SIGMA, corrosion survey data management software developed by SUMMIT provides the most comprehensive analyses available for review of corrosion date collected for a vessel. It is a Windows© based program constructed to accumulate and manage data collected during corrosion surveys. The design allows SUMMIT to calculate accurate short and long term corrosion rates, and provide quick estimates for remaining life of all of your condition monitoring locations. The final reports are intuitive and easy to read, but also include extensive information, drawings, calculations, and detail to support the summaries. The value of our reports to our customers is unparalleled in the industry because we understand that the inspections and data need to be meaningful, well documented, and repeatable.
- THETA: our integrity management system that houses our historical inspection reports. Reports include information on inspectors used for the inspection (allowing accurate competency profiles to be developed for our inspectors), location mapping, travel and time spent per job (allowing for accurate quoting and historical data for costs by location and equipment type), historical information by asset (allowing for accurate inspection plans to be created by asset), and much more. THETA also houses all inspector qualifications, certifications, and competency profiles for quick delivery upon request.
- GAMMA: is the documents repository where all information associated with a vessel, as collected by SUMMIT, or as provided by customer will be stored. Copies of all inspection reports for vessels inspected, and all associated documents ( U1A’s, photographs, drawings and so on) will be accessible from this module.
- OMEGA: though under development, this is an field gathering tool that will allow for more efficient inspection due to the ability to gather data more effectively and give the inspector immediate access to historical information, relevant codes, and data gathering tools.
