Digitising Rail & Civil Engineering Workflows with SwiftForms

In highly regulated industries like rail and civil engineering, efficiency and compliance are non-negotiable. Yet, many businesses are still burdened with paper-based processes, spreadsheets, and disconnected systemsβ€”leading to delays, errors, and inefficiencies. Enter SwiftForms, the digital solution designed to streamline critical workflows, ensuring accuracy, compliance, and ease of use for teams in the field and the office.

The Challenge: Paper-Based & Manual Processes

For companies operating in rail, civil engineering, and similar sectors, staying on top of regulatory requirements while keeping projects running smoothly is a constant challenge. Manual processes introduce risks such as:

  • Lost or incomplete paperwork delaying material approvals or site reports.
  • Errors in timesheets and requisitions leading to incorrect payroll or procurement issues.
  • Compliance failures due to missing or incorrect documentation.
  • Delays in communication between site teams and head office.
