Fieldman adds direct Sensus SmartPoint activation inside its work order platform

Fieldman has launched a native integration with Xylem’s Sensus FieldLogic that lets field technicians activate SmartPoint endpoints inside the Fieldman app during meter exchanges. The company says the workflow can reduce return visits, improve deployment data, and give utilities real-time visibility into AMI rollouts. Why it matters: - The integration removes extra steps at the meter by keeping activation inside the same app technicians already use for work orders. - Utilities can close out more installations on-site, which can reduce return trips and gaps in deployment records. - Real-time sync between field activity and asset records can improve visibility for AMI and smart meter rollout teams. What happened: - Fieldman announced a native integration with Xylem’s Sensus FieldLogic for Sensus SmartPoint endpoint activation. - Field technicians can now trigger SmartPoint activation directly inside the Fieldman app without switching tools or re-entering data. - The announcement was made June 17, 2026, from Sawyer, Michigan. - Fieldman will demonstrate the integration at the AWWA Annual Conference & Exposition (ACE26) on June 22–25 in Washington, D.C. - Fieldman will be at Booth #119 in the Innovation Hub. The details: - Fieldman is a work order management platform built for AMI and smart meter deployments. - The integrated workflow connects field data collection, SmartPoint activation, and automated asset record updates. - When a technician completes a meter exchange in Fieldman, the app detects the Sensus programming device and connects to FieldLogic tools. - The system verifies the device profile and triggers activation before the technician leaves the site. - Activation results sync back to Fieldman automatically. - Fieldman says the workflow keeps installation records complete and accurate. - The company says the integration can slash return trip rates, improve data collection accuracy, and reduce time technicians spend on site. - Vlad Kravchenko, Fieldman CEO and co-founder, said the integration removes a common friction point in meter exchanges and helps utilities and contractors close out each job with confidence. - Sensus is a major AMI and smart meter technology provider for water, gas, and electric utilities in North America. - Sensus iPERL+ water meters, SmartPoint endpoints, and the FlexNet network are widely deployed across U.S. water utilities. - The integration is designed for utilities and contractors already using Sensus infrastructure. Between the lines: - The product move points to a broader push to connect field execution and back-office records in one workflow. - For utilities, that matters because activation errors often surface only after crews have left the site, when fixing them costs more time and money. - A tighter link between hardware activation and work order completion also gives project managers a cleaner view of rollout progress. What’s next: - Fieldman will use ACE26 to show the workflow live and position the integration for utilities and contractors planning AMI deployments. - The company is targeting teams that want tighter coordination between smart meter technology and field operations. - More adoption will likely depend on how well the integrated process fits existing utility deployment workflows.
