Automated anchortest reports.

Anchor Testing Australia has partnered with OPUS to replace manual reporting with a digital platform purpose-built for anchor test evidence, from client brief through to engineer-reviewed certificate.

The problem

Anchor testing generates evidence. The industry still reports it manually.

Every proof load programme produces load readings, displacement data, site photos, calibration records, and an acceptance decision. Traditionally, that evidence is transcribed into a Word document, reformatted by hand, and emailed as a PDF attachment days later.

That workflow is slow, error-prone, and leaves the evidence trail fragmented across inboxes and local drives. When an anchor is queried months later, the data hunt begins.

OPUS solves this by capturing test data at the point of entry, linking it to calibration records and photos, and generating the certificate automatically, so the engineer reviews the evidence, not the formatting.

Paper reports waste engineering time

Manually compiling anchor test data into Word documents or spreadsheets delays reporting, introduces transcription errors, and leaves test evidence scattered across email threads and site folders.

Clients expect faster turnaround

Engineers, builders, and façade contractors need test certificates quickly, often same day, so the programme can proceed. Manual workflows cannot consistently meet that expectation.

Evidence trails need to be auditable

When an anchor is queried months or years later, the responsible engineer needs to trace every load reading, displacement record, photo, and acceptance decision back to a single source of truth.

What OPUS delivers

A platform built for anchor test evidence, not generic project management.

OPUS is an engineering project platform developed by Trinity DAO Australia that captures field data, generates reports, and tracks programmes from lead through to certificate issue. Anchor Testing Australia uses OPUS as its core operating system.

01

Digital test briefs

Clients receive a secure link to submit anchor specifications, substrate details, installation records, and site photos before mobilisation. No email attachments or phone calls required.

02

Field data capture

Engineers enter proof loads, peak loads, sustained loads, displacement readings, hold windows, and failure observations directly into OPUS from the field.

03

Automated PDF reports

Test results, calibration records, site photos, and the acceptance decision are compiled into a branded, engineer-reviewed anchor test certificate, ready for issue.

04

Project tracking

Every anchor programme is tracked from lead through to report issue, with stage gates, client visibility, and a complete audit trail for compliance.

About OPUS

Engineering project management built for the field.

OPUS is an engineering project management platform developed by Trinity DAO Australia. It handles the full lifecycle of technical service delivery, from lead capture and client briefing through to field data entry, automated reporting, and financial tracking.

Unlike generic project management tools, OPUS is designed for engineering firms that need to capture technical evidence, generate standards-referenced reports, and maintain auditable records for compliance and professional indemnity.

The platform is currently used across structural investigation, anchor testing, and remediation programmes, with each module tailored to the specific data capture and reporting needs of that discipline.
