Tower sites & import
The route is structured tower by tower instead of being spread across spreadsheets.
- Tower list and route import (CSV/Excel with coordinates)
- Spans between towers
- Route progress per tower
Project control for high-voltage overhead lines
Manage overhead line projects centrally. From planning and deliveries to as-built documentation.
Grid operators and general contractors manage tower sites, planned vs. actual quantities, records and as-built documentation in one shared project view – instead of spreadsheets and e-mail threads.

Benefits
One platform instead of spreadsheets and e-mail.
GridTrace brings sites, documents, tasks and status information together in the context of each project. The teams involved can see how things relate and agree on next steps more clearly.
-
01
Are outage requests, change orders and queries usually handled by e-mail?
In GridTrace, clarifications stay attached to the case instead of getting lost in an inbox.
-
02
Are planned and actual quantities per tower hard to reconcile?
Deviations become visible early and are resolved in a defined way instead of by e-mail.
-
03
Are as-built documents compiled from scattered data at the end of the project?
As-built documents are generated from the recorded data.
Features
From planning and deliveries to as-built documentation.
A web app with which grid operators and general contractors manage high-voltage overhead line projects – construction, replacement and refurbishment of transmission towers.
Planned vs. actual
See per tower what is to be installed – progress and deviations per site instead of in spreadsheets.
- Planned quantities from drawings or bills of materials per tower (concrete, steel, conductor)
- Tolerances, deviations and justifications
- Change orders decided by the grid operator
Delivery notes
Delivered quantities end up at the right tower and are not counted twice.
- Upload and check delivery notes and assign them to towers
- Duplicate check
- Material certificates per delivery
Calendar & history
A calendar view of what happened at which site and when (deliveries, photos, inspections).
- Site diary
- Inspections and defects per tower
- Outage requests and queries between general contractor and grid operator
As-built documents as PDF
As-built documents are generated from the recorded data – for handover to the grid operator from the existing data.
- Create and submit as-built documents as PDF
- Acceptance record per tower
- Project archive at completion
Dashboard & exports
The status per tower and project is visible at a glance.
- Dashboard with route progress
- Exports as PDF, Excel and CSV
- Geo export of the route
Core workflow
From tower site to as-built PDF.
One data set for everyone involved: the general contractor creates the project and selects the responsible grid operator, then each step builds on the previous one.
- 01
Tower sites
Create the project, select the responsible grid operator and record or import the tower sites of the route.
- 02
Drawings & delivery notes
Read planned quantities from drawings and actual quantities from delivery notes – assigned per tower.
- 03
Planned vs. actual
See deviations per site and resolve them with a justification instead of reconciling spreadsheets.
- 04
Progress & history
Track progress per site and see in the calendar what happened when: deliveries, photos, inspections.
- 05
As-built PDF
As-built documents as PDF after completion, adapted to the grid operator’s requirements.
Who it is for
For grid operators and general contractors in overhead line construction.
Grid operators manage their own projects or view projects run by general contractors. General contractors set up projects for different grid operators. Both work on the same project state.
For grid operators
Manage your own projects or view those of general contractors: planned vs. actual per tower, history per site and as-built documentation to your requirements.
- Decide on outage requests
- Decide on change orders
- Resolve queries within the case
- Review as-built documents
For general contractors
Upload the delivery note and the actual quantity is in the project. One system for projects of different grid operators – with the as-built PDF at the end.
- Project management
- Site management
- Set up projects for different grid operators
- Check delivery notes and assign them to towers
- Record site diary, inspections and defects per tower
- Create and submit as-built documents
Trust & security
Security and traceability: what GridTrace does today.
Grid operators set high information security requirements for their service providers and software. That is why we only list properties that GridTrace and this website actually implement – without certificates or declarations of conformity.
Change history
The activity history is only appended to, never overwritten.
Project roles
Roles such as project management, site management, supervisor and a viewer role with read-only access reflect responsibilities.
Sign-in
Sign-in with a dedicated GridTrace account.
Documents in project context
Documents stay assigned to the matching site or case.
Website: analytics only with consent
No analytics script is loaded without consent. Fonts are served from our own server; no external font services are called.
No certificate promises
We do not advertise certificates or declarations of conformity. We agree information security and data protection requirements with you per project.

01What kind of projects is GridTrace for?
For high-voltage overhead line projects (110/220/380/525 kV): construction, replacement and refurbishment of transmission towers. Tower sites, planned vs. actual quantities, records and progress are managed together – instead of scattered spreadsheets, e-mail threads and isolated tools. GridTrace is currently in beta; we agree on its use in your project individually.
02Who typically works with GridTrace?
Grid operators, general contractors and the teams involved in a project: project management, site management, documentation and authorised external partners.
03What changes in day-to-day project work?
Tower sites, open items, records and status sit in one shared project view. Coordination is based on the current state – not on the latest file version in someone’s inbox.
04How are tower sites and records organised?
Each tower site bundles master data, status, tasks, documents and records in the project context, so plan, execution and documentation stay traceable in one place.
05Which documents can be assigned?
Among others drawings, delivery notes, material certificates, as-built documents and other project files – each assigned to the matching site or case instead of disappearing into generic folder structures.
06How does GridTrace support handovers?
Responsibilities, open items, status and related documents are visible in the project context. Handovers can be compiled as a traceable state.
07What happens after a demo request?
After your enquiry, we will get in touch with you personally. In a short call we discuss your project and, if you like, show you GridTrace in a demo. We then agree on its use in your project individually.
08How is personal data handled?
Purpose, scope of data, roles, access, retention and deletion are agreed with you before use. This website is covered by our privacy policy; use of the app is covered by the data protection documents agreed for the project.
