SmarterWX Locate transforms how organisations manage and apply BYDA information by providing a central environment to manage all enquiries and responses. It enables information sharing across teams and projects and improved interpretation of underground asset risk while ensuring consistent, auditable workflows.

The challenge

Despite widespread use of BYDA, organisations still struggle to manage underground risk in practice. According to BYDA's underground report, more than 2.7 million enquiries are processed annually, yet over 15,000 service strikes still occur each year because information is fragmented, difficult to interpret, and delivered as static documents. Enquiries and responses are often managed by individuals, distributed across email and folders, and disconnected from broader workflows. The issue isn’t the availability of data — it’s the lack of control over how that data is managed, shared, and applied.
