News, updates, and best practices in maintenance management and urban assets
Field process digitization often falls into the trap of simply replicating paper on a screen, creating static "digital PDFs" that provide no intelligence. The true power of a technical platform lies in dynamic forms with conditional logic. We explore how the ability to show or hide fields, validate answers in real-time, and structure complex data transforms simple data collection into a guided, error-free engineering process.
For a small service business, doing the technical work is only half the battle; the other half is ensuring that work is billed correctly. Lost paper delivery notes, forgotten small materials, and unaccounted hours represent a silent but devastating revenue leak. We analyze how digitizing the workflow plugs these financial cracks and ensures that every screw and every minute of work is reflected in the final invoice.
What gets measured gets managed. Many organizations manage their assets based on feelings or daily emergencies, lacking a clear vision of the actual efficiency of their operations. In this article, we detail the fundamental metrics that transform a reactive maintenance department into a strategic one, and explain how a digital system is essential to obtain this data accurately and without administrative effort.
In the B2B landscape, where operational continuity and cost efficiency are critical, maintenance management stands as a strategic function. Companies with large distributed assets—such as telecom networks, vehicle fleets, energy infrastructure, or utility grids—face the constant challenge of balancing two fundamental approaches: Preventive Maintenance (PM) and Corrective Maintenance (CM).
Managing city maintenance is possibly one of the most complex logistical challenges in existence. Unlike a closed factory, the environment is open, chaotic, and under constant scrutiny from thousands of "inspectors": the citizens.
Managing point assets like a streetlight or a bench is relatively simple. But what happens when your asset is 50 kilometers long and buried under asphalt? Linear asset management (pipes, cabling, roads) requires superior GIS technology that understands segments, connections, and topology.
