Customer Story: Ohio Department of Transportation

We are no longer worried about printing paper inspections and distributing them out to all of our inspectors. We have over a thousand [inspectors], so we’re not creating that paper in the first place which is a major savings.
— Janet Treadway, Project Business Administrator & Electronic Delivery Lead, ODOT

The Ohio Department of Transportation leverages digital forms and the SharePoint integration to streamline the completion of inspection forms
