Geotechnical Engineering in Dubai
Geotechnical firms run field crews, specialist equipment and a steady flow of project billing. The Atlantis NDT ERP can support those parts of the business. Team Assignments schedules crews with site GPS coordinates, mobilisation dates and double-booking prevention for people and equipment. Equipment is tracked by serial number with lifecycle status, issue and return approvals, maintenance log and calibration records. Staff certifications and training can be recorded with expiry warnings, and Fleet tracks vehicles, including whether a vehicle can carry radioactive sources and its transport licence expiry.
Projects, timesheets, expenses and invoicing handle the commercial flow. Boring logs, laboratory soil testing and engineering reports are outside the standard product and would be configured during implementation. Where the firm also performs NDT, such as UT or MT on piles or steelwork, the NDT Reports app handles that work natively.
Scope the implementation in Dubai
Use your own report templates, personnel records and equipment register to evaluate the proposed configuration. Confirm the contracting entity, hosting location, support hours, data access and any onsite work in the proposal. Location in this guide does not establish a local office, customer endorsement or pre-approved configuration.
Records and controls to evaluate
- Team Assignments with site GPS coordinates and double-booking prevention
- Serial-number equipment register with issue/return approvals and maintenance log
- Calibration records and certificate register with expiry alerts
- Staff certification and training records
- Fleet vehicles with source-carrying flag and transport licence expiry
- Projects, timesheets and expenses
- Invoicing with labour, equipment and consumables subtotals
- NDT Reports for any NDT work performed
Follow the work from start to finish
A project is opened from an accepted quote with site, client PO and scope. Crews and equipment are assigned through Team Assignments using site GPS coordinates and mobilisation dates, and vehicles are assigned through Fleet with dates and mileage. Equipment is issued with supervisor and manager approval and its condition recorded, and comes back through the same process, with any damage logged in the maintenance record.
Calibration and licence expiries are flagged by email in advance. Crews log time by work type, including travel and standby, and submit field expenses, which are approved and invoiced. Specialist geotechnical records are kept in your existing tools or in workflows configured during implementation.
Check the evidence, permissions and handover
Firms combining geotechnical and NDT services benefit most: the NDT side gets method reports, technician certification and calibration tracking, while the shared crew planning and equipment register covers both service lines.
During the trial, ask one user to create a record and another to review it. Make a correction, check which version a customer receives, and export the final record with its references. Record any manual steps or configuration gaps in the acceptance checklist.
Software organises evidence; it does not grant personnel certification, laboratory accreditation or customer approval. Confirm the requirements that apply to your work with the responsible technical or quality manager.
Questions about geotechnical engineering
Does the ERP produce boring logs?
No. Boring logs and soil testing are outside the standard product and can be discussed as custom scope during implementation.
Can we track vehicles that carry radioactive sources?
Yes. Fleet records whether a vehicle can carry radioactive sources, with transport licence number and expiry.
Can we track density gauge calibration?
Yes. Any instrument can be tracked by serial number with calibration records and a certificate register.
Choose the next step
Request the 14-day ERP trial to work through a representative job. Use the integration scoping guide for external systems: a REST API connection needs an agreed data mapping, implementation and test plan.
