Evidence before narrative.
A persuasive story needs a sound basis. Agree what will be measured, the required quality, timing and commercial scope. When something is unknown, explain the gap and how it can be resolved.
The Flybi Voice charter
How we explain our work, scope an engagement, build intelligence and handle a difficult conversation. Eight principles, written for the people who work with us.
A persuasive story needs a sound basis. Agree what will be measured, the required quality, timing and commercial scope. When something is unknown, explain the gap and how it can be resolved.
Industrial decisions depend on what a number actually represents. Define the reference, assumptions and limits before committing to an output. If the required result cannot be supported, say so before the work proceeds.
Our purpose is useful intelligence: an exploration interpretation, inventory record, condition finding or environmental view. Drones, ground measurements, satellite information and software each have a role. Use the combination that fits the decision.
Not every problem belongs with Flybi. Discuss capabilities, site constraints and the economics of the engagement openly. If a specialist or another approach is a better fit, make that clear.
The next reader may be an engineer, a finance team or an auditor who was not there when the information was captured. Keep the method, date, reference and relevant quality records connected to the result so the basis can be reviewed.
Airspace permissions, lawful equipment, safety and site requirements belong in the plan. Establish the applicable operating conditions with the authorised project team before fieldwork, and treat them as part of the work.
Use direct sentences and explain the important terms. Technical precision should help a reader understand the decision, not make the message harder to follow. Make a report useful to someone reading it for the first time.
Our ambition extends beyond an individual engagement. Clear methods, usable formats and responsible knowledge-sharing can help the whole industry improve. Share where permissions and confidentiality allow, and learn from others doing the work well.
Principles need a way to be questioned
Flybi Voice is the route for feedback, suggestions and good-faith concerns. A clear statement of principles should make a difficult conversation easier to start.
