The problem

Millions invested in infrastructure, managed with spreadsheets and paper.

Data fragmented between email chains and spreadsheets, creating a record that is painful to search and useless for analytics.

No proof of work

Difficulty in confirming if requested work was actually done, or done correctly.

Records walk out the door

Institutional knowledge leaves with the person who knows it.

Hours of detective work

"When was this bench installed? By who?" takes an afternoon, if not more.

What you get

Institutional memory, made operational.

Full asset history

Every work order, photo, document, and decision for a stop - in one timeline.

Proof work happened

Close-out photos and updates turn "we think it's done" into "here's who did it, and when."

Automated workflows

Generate change logs from your GTFS. Schedule preventative maintenance by asset type.

Work orders end to end

Route jobs to the right technician and track them from request to complete.
