Azbil field intelligence: AR guidance on smart glasses across six steps from authentication to completed procedure
The challenge

Why this
was hard.

Calibrating positioners and inspecting valves in the field means working with both hands, often in hard-to-reach places, while following a procedure that has to be documented exactly.

Compliance checks, readings and sign-off are usually separate steps on separate devices, which is where records go missing.

The six-step workflow

Every job, the same six steps.
Each one recorded.

The application walks the engineer through the whole job in the glasses, and each step leaves a record behind.

How we worked · Forward deployed delivery

The Elric method,
on this engagement.

01 · Frame

The outcome and what "done" means, agreed in writing with the people who run the process.

02 · Ship

Released to real users early, in the plant, the field or the operations team.

03 · Measure

Live data and records in place from the first release, not added at the end.

04 · Hand over

Docs, runbooks and a working session, so the client team owns it.
