Major Advancement: Geotechnical Lab Data Entry and Testing Workflow Now Available in OpenGround Sponsored

OpenGround is proud to announce a transformative enhancement to its platform: support for geotechnical laboratory testing and reporting. This release brings together raw lab data entry, automated calculations, and streamlined reporting workflows, creating a more connected and efficient experience for laboratory and engineering teams.

Key Highlights of the New Capability:

Integrated engineering and lab projects: OpenGround now supports independent engineering and laboratory projects in support of distinct workflows. This structure gives teams better control over administration, oversight, access, and data management needs, with integrated mechanisms for seamless two-way data exchange. This update eliminates redundant rekeying and file sharing.

Digital-ready lab data entry profiles: Configurable data entry profiles provide the foundation to replace paper-based input sheets with intuitive, configurable profiles for British Standard & ASTM tests, reducing manual re-entry, and eliminating bottlenecks.

Default ASTM and BS test procedures: OpenGround includes support for default test procedures, including native calculations, enabling users to go from raw lab test data to results and generate corresponding test certificates and summary reports. To help you get started, the platform provides fully configurable report templates based on international testing standards.

Security and compliance: You can rely on the OpenGround platform for role-based access, enterprise-grade security and compliance, automated backups, and robust service level agreements.

Platform for the future: With OpenGround’s API-first approach, you can leverage the platform’s extensive APIs to integrate into partner solutions, in-house tools, third-party integrations and enterprise reporting that enables automation, custom workflows, and advanced analytics.

This advancement positions OpenGround as the industry’s most comprehensive geotechnical data management solution, bridging the gap between field, lab, and engineering workflows. This is the first step to empower organizations to fully digitize their lab operations, improve data quality, and accelerate project delivery – all while maintaining the flexibility to integrate with existing systems and standards.

The new lab workflow capability is now available as part of OpenGround’s core offering and will continue to evolve with additional capabilities in support of lab workflows.
