Asset management 

Digital asset management tools promote data management and decision-making during infrastructure projects. We help clients gather fragmented data from different sources into a digital form, allowing useful information to be swiftly found and easy to share and maintain. Clear data architecture facilitates smooth service provision, helps clients manage the lifecycle costs of their infrastructure and provides a direction for long-term planning. 

Lifecycle management of infrastructure assets

Our asset management experts provide assistance to municipalities, cities, the state and private operators in developing their services. The main goal is to make daily operations run more smoothly. Thanks to a digital flow of information, scattered data from different sources can be better managed and made part of a management system. Furthermore, efficient flow of information always goes hand-in-hand with lifecycle cost management. 

With digital services, asset management will no longer be about putting out fires. Instead, budgets for maintaining the road and track network or providing water supply services will be planned to span across at least a decade. This allows operators to manage their infrastructure assets better in the long run. 

Data analytics

In many sectors that are heavily focused on capital, such as water supply services, a large portion of the assets are underground, and getting visual information about the pipes’ condition is challenging. Our data analysts will help you gain an overall understanding of the condition of your assets, control your maintenance backlog and prioritise the necessary actions. Thanks to data analytics, repairs can be better prioritised and divided into stages in a sensible way. 

Data architecture, open data and interfaces

One of the most important areas of improvement in asset management is clearer data architecture. We train system users to operate according to the general guidelines, which guarantees that everyone will know who records data where, when and in what format. Uniform data handling processes ensure that useful information can be located quickly, shared easily and not become misplaced along the way. They also help keep the information up to date. 

We automate processes linked to searching for information, thereby reducing the need for manual searches. In addition, we help our clients take advantage of open data, allowing them to transfer data from various sources to their systems automatically via interfaces. We also develop these processes on the client’s terms, independent of any specific devices or software. At the same time we ensure that developers do not bite off more than they can chew. Furthermore, we choose systems that make daily operations easier and reduce the amount of unnecessary work. 

Visual geospatial data

Asset management can be promoted with visual reporting methods and snapshots. We help our clients gain a clear picture of their infrastructure assets and report it in a manner that everyone is able to understand. Geospatial data can be used to illustrate the condition and repair needs of a specific section of track or the water supply grid on a digital map. Similarly, it allows the results of asset management development to be demonstrated in advance or piloted along the way.
