Conquering the Fear of Tech Upgrades

“If I buy it, I might not be able to use it”

From my experience many people hesitate to upgrade to new technology because they're afraid they won't be able to use it. The rapid pace of technological advancement can be daunting, making us feel like we're constantly playing catch-up. At Hitechniques, we're dedicated to helping companies confidently embrace the latest measurement technology. We provide comprehensive support every step of the way, ensuring a smooth transition to the next level.

A Practical Approach to Tech Adoption

Recently, an engineer from a Galway site contacted us, looking to handle site setup himself. He needed guidance on choosing the right equipment. After asking a few questions on what he is building, I picked a unit and went through what he needs. Based on his site criteria we made the choice between a GNSS rover and a robotic total station work.

I recommended the GeoMax Zenith35 PRO TAG GNSS Rover since he was just starting to set out foundations and groundworks around his site. It was our flagship GNSS rover at the time and the most popular system to learn, , offering cutting-edge technology, fast connections, and exceptional accuracy, significantly reducing stakeout time.

Hands-on Training and Support

Our demonstration was an introduction to the various functions and guide through the workflow. I showed the customer how to record and save data, stake-out and even create surface for volume calculation. The tutorials explained how to get through all the different functions, navigating through the site and the software. I also demonstrated how to create and choose from the code list in X-PAD software to start the customer with the important discipline of coding and essentially creating the right layer for the right survey description.

We finished up with answering the questions that came up during the demonstration.

With all that the customer was able to make a well-informed decision and opted to purchase a unit straight away, knowing he could now execute the basic functions and was able to transfer the survey from tablet to his PC and forward to his design engineer for further site development.

Confident Decision Making

After a 2 hours demonstration on a Tuesday morning the customer was able to choose his new equipment with the confidence that he’ll be able to use it and it will suit his immediate needs as well as long-term goals for his own and company's progression.

The Value of Guidance

With over 15 years in the construction industry, I understand the importance of leveraging the latest technology.  Proper guidance is key to successfully selecting the right equipment for your specific needs and long-term goals.  At Hitechniques, we provide that guidance, ensuring your technology upgrade is a success.
