Modernizing Tower Inspection and Analysis Workflows

In the fast-evolving telecommunications sector, traditional tower inspections are increasingly becoming a bottleneck. Recognizing the need for modernization, CTI Towers partnered with FieldSync Technologies to overhaul their inspection and data collection processes. The result? A 50% reduction in site visits, improved data accuracy, and new avenues for revenue generation—all powered by OpenTower iQ.

FieldSync introduced an innovative approach by combining on-site climber data with drone-captured insights, creating comprehensive digital twins of CTI’s tower sites. This integration not only enhanced operational efficiency but also made critical tower data accessible across multiple departments. As Sam McGuire, Founder of FieldSync, puts it, “This new data format has helped us unlock tremendous cross-functional value from a single site visit. Our partnership with Bentley empowers us to deliver significant value to our customers across the entire supply chain.”

This case study highlights the transformative power of digitization in tower asset management, paving the way for smarter, more efficient workflows that drive tangible business results.
