• Public Works - Build the Resilient Infrastructure Your Community Depends On

    Transform Plan Review into a Catalyst For Community Growth and Effective Asset Management

THE CHALLENGE FOR PUBLIC WORKS
A Lack of GIS Context Holding Back Your Community
As essential service providers, Public Works teams keep our communities running — maintaining streets, managing utilities, and ensuring safe, compliant infrastructure that supports economic growth and community wellbeing. But traditional asset management review processes make the job harder than it needs to be.
 
Reviewers continue to lose up to 40 minutes per permit toggling between applications to obtain a complete site view, delaying projects, creating costly rework, and slowing down community development. Infrastructure projects require spatial context that traditional plan review tools simply can’t provide.


Missing Spatial Context Creates Critical Blind Spots

  • Missing GIS context hides critical details like underground utilities.
  • Reviewers waste time jumping between systems for full-site context.
  • Gaps in spatial data create risks for rework, penalties, and public safety issues.
  • Utility conflicts drive up construction project costs and timelines.

Siloed Data & Manual Handoffs

  • Paper or PDF-based workflows slow down coordination between agencies.
  • Lost plans and version control chaos create constant rework.
  • No real-time visibility into status of critical infrastructure projects

Strict Compliance Mandates

  • ROW permits must meet ADA, traffic-control, environmental, and dig-safe regulations.
  • Missing or outdated GIS context triggers rework, fines, and liability.
  • Manual compliance checks slow reviews and risk errors.

Aging infrastructure & Limited Funding

  • Decades-old infrastructure compete for limited budgets, forcing teams to do more with less.
  • Deferred maintenance heightens project urgency and risk.
  • Emergency repairs disrupt schedules and drain resources.
The Result? Infrastructure projects delayed, costly utility conflicts discovered too late, and
your team coordinating emergency fixes instead of building resilient assets and infrastructure your community depends on.
