2. Dig Safe Ticket Screening

Bullseye Locating utilizes an advanced ticket management system. Our services can take all the problems out of managing, tracking and dispatching tickets. At Bullseye, we always strive to go beyond the traditional practices and carry out all the task with extra precision, therefore we incorporate your underground system into ours. This practice allows us to accurately screen out clear tickets round the clock throughout the year. This smart practice enables us to dispatch only the sites that require a physical tech onsite. Not to mention, this practice helps us to cut a lot of costs. Bullseye has highly skilled and experienced locators on board, who ensure that the actual location of your underground plant is 100% known in relevance to the dig location.

Documentation: At this stage, our locators collect and compile all the documented prints/plans and overlay them into our mapping system. Whenever required, we take the responsibility to reevaluate all the questionable location. The advanced mapping technology not only allows us to receive dig request but also helps us to determine actual dig location. In case the dig location is not made clear on the Dig Safe Ticket, our technician will call the contractor to confirm the actual dig location.

Once the dig location is determined, our technician compares the location with the documented information. At this point, our technicians identify whether or not the area is clear of conflict or needs to be dispatched for a locate. We follow the practice for all the tickets we receive from one call system. At Bullseye, we adjust ourselves as per our client’s needs, and we always do our utmost to deliver what client is expecting from our service.
