Challenge	SBL Solutions, a wind farm construction and maintenance company, faced significant challenges as it expanded from a team of five to over 120 employees. The company, which provides electrical and mechanical fitters and wind turbine technicians to the renewable energy sectors in Australia, New Zealand, and the APAC region, initially adopted a digital timesheet solution. However, this solution lacked the necessary features to track assets and ensure safety compliance. The renewable energy sector requires a multitude of certifications, licenses, and competencies, and managing these across a growing team became increasingly complex. SBL Solutions needed a comprehensive solution that could handle timesheets, asset tracking, and compliance monitoring. Read More
About Customer	SBL Solutions is a wind farm construction and maintenance company that provides electrical and mechanical fitters and wind turbine technicians to the renewable energy sectors. They operate in Australia, New Zealand, and the APAC region. The company started with a small team of five and has since grown to employ over 120 people. As they grew, they recognized the importance of controlling the chaos of internal operations and building strong operational foundations. They are committed to turning the chaos of wind into renewable energy and ensuring safety and compliance in their operations. Read More
Solution	SBL Solutions adopted Assignar, a digital platform that met their criteria for tracking timesheets, assets, and safety. The platform allowed them to link timesheets to other important documents like safety and quality forms, ensuring that mechanics and electricians met all their requirements before submitting their timesheets. This helped SBL ensure compliance and keep all their forms digitized and in one place. Furthermore, SBL Solutions took their operations processes to the next level by creating their own web portal, the SBL datahub, using Assignar’s open API. They linked their data hub with Assignar and other key databases, like their finance software, to streamline and automate wherever they could. This process automated much of SBL Solution’s processes and took a lot of the minutia off of their managers. Read More Log in to view content

Impact #1	Adopting Assignar has resulted in significant operational improvements for SBL Solutions. The platform has become their de facto database, with all technicians’ tickets, licenses, and permits linked to their personal profiles. SBL even set up notifications for when these are near expiration. They use Assignar to ensure everything is recorded and tracked, from the serial numbers on their tools to the registration and insurance on their vehicles. This has given them the ability to provide their clients with detailed information about their work, including how many turbines were installed, what type they were, what work was completed, and who completed it. The implementation of Assignar has laid a strong foundation for SBL's operations, setting them up for future success.
