Results: A Strategic Solution
The solution significantly improved the Town of Marana’s asset management data collection processes, making them more effective, efficient, and productive.
More Effective: The Town of Marana has real-time visibility into field operations, enabling them to identify incomplete work earlier in their review process. This has prevented premature vendor payments and ensured tasks are completed satisfactorily. Cochran added, “It has helped us out quite a bit. For example, a third-party vendor sent us an invoice, and we could instantly verify the work that had been completed and what still needed to be finished. This gave us better transparency earlier in the process and improved the experience with the third-party vendor.”
More Efficient: The streamlined data collection process has saved 40% of the hours previously spent on manual data entry, significantly improving overall staff efficiency and job satisfaction.
More Productive: The Town of Marana performs data quality control checks more effectively with these real-time data updates. They can identify problematic areas, such as blocked manholes, and address them promptly, which allows the Town to be proactive.
They can now determine which storm culverts require immediate attention based on operational and structural conditions, saving time and resources.
