Hi RL,
This will indeed never work in a construction management environment where the value of data is never valued for taking corrective/adjusting actions. On the other hand, for those environments where it is valued, it will never be a problem to assign a PLC electrician or a computer operator etc to the task.

Hi RL
I have used in two TBM in India and its really great, you can even have teh TBM OP to digitally fill in the OP Report and it will then generate a proper report of what happened on the shift It's not free, free to download, but cost to use and some material are needed depending on each site requirement. Why I love this, once set up, it will generate your daily reports needed to monitor the TBM performance and in the event of some breakdown, it is a CRUCIAL TOOL for the troubleshooting of the TBM and its system. Yes some TBM has this, but it cost dearly to buy from them, this is a STANDALONE and working like a charm.

Lockdown in MD India.
I understand and always like people enthusiastic about stuff like that, but I might also be biased as I work on exactly this, but for another commercial product ;-)
