Challenge

Governments manage thousands of public assets across communities, but limited funding, aging infrastructure and growing public expectations make it difficult to prioritize spending and justify capital and operating decisions.

Solution

Siemens Asset Management Software gives government decision-makers real-time, consolidated asset data to support capital planning, streamline maintenance, optimize energy usage and guide long-term investments.

Benefits

Manage assets more effectively with a solution that meets you where you are in your asset management journey.

  • Streamline maintenance and operations management with enhanced GIS capabilities.
  • Routinely monitor performance of assets with integrated IoT devices.
  • Optimize energy usage and guide future investment in sustainability efforts.
  • Centralize asset data and gain actionable insights to improve decision-making.

How to get started

Simplify the journey to safer, more reliable and more sustainable communities — and pave the way for faster predictive maintenance, intelligent data-driven decisions and smarter Asset Investment Planning (AIP).

Foundational phase

Build a strong asset management foundation with state-of-the-art GIS, a mobile app for quick access to work orders and support for any asset class, so you always know where your assets are and can track and respond to maintenance needs fast.

Insightful phase

With a solid foundation in place, get more intentional with asset decisions. Add preventive maintenance, model funding scenarios, predict asset deterioration and prioritize capital projects, so your most critical assets rise to the top for funding.

Smart phase

Strategically placed IoT sensors on critical infrastructure send real-time alerts to help you intervene before failures occur. Combine asset health data with sustainability objectives to optimize operations and minimize community disruption.

GIS integration and data mapping

Siemens’ GIS capabilities require mapping existing asset locations into the system. Audit your current asset registry and location data before implementation to support accurate, real-time visibility.

IoT sensor deployment and infrastructure

Use sensors on critical assets to send real-time alerts. Assess network connectivity across your community and plan for sensor procurement and placement as part of your deployment.

Asset registry and data migration

Building an accurate, high-quality asset registry is essential. Consolidate existing asset records, condition data and maintenance history before configuration to support reliable reporting and capital planning decisions.

Case study

A lightning strike sparks an asset management overhaul

Beaufort County, SC

Facilities Director Frank Stroncheck identified staffing, budgeting and work order system needs. Then, lightning struck a critical building, underscoring the need to modernize.

“We wanted [Siemens’] asset management system so that we could have the data to show that we needed more money, which proved that we needed more staff,” Stroncheck explains.
