“We are seeing a significant increase in the adoption of PointMan from companies like Safe2core that realize that the utility locating industry is being transformed by modern technology. History shows that whenever an industry experiences a significant transformation, a few will lead the way, others will follow, and some will simply be left behind,” stated Page Tucker, CEO of ProStar. “It is great to see companies like Safe2core adopt PointMan and recognize it is transformative.”

SAFE2CORE personnel have more than 40 years of combined experience in Concrete Scanning, Concrete Cutting, Utility Locating, and CCTV Pipeline Inspection.
