- Frequent asset failures and service disruption
- Inefficient paper based asset repair and manual data entry processes
- Lack of data to prioritize capital improvement projects
- Lack of visibility to asset condition and performance
A Powerful, Easy-to-Use Solution for Asset Maintenance and Repair. Trimble Unity software offers efficient and configurable GIS-centric asset repair workflows. The solutions allows utility operators using Trimble Unity web to plan, manage and dispatch asset repair jobs, while allowing field technicians using the Trimble Unity mobile app (supported on iOS, Android and Windows) to spatially locate and repair assets using intelligent forms and workflows, take photos, record material, equipment and labor usage, and capture accurate GPS positions. Network tracing tools are available allowing field technicians to identify and locate system valves that need to be turned off during a planned or unplanned water main repairs. The tool can also report impacted customers and affected hydrants.
Bundled with mobile devices such as the Trimble TDC100 rugged handheld device and Trimble’s high accuracy GNSS receivers, field technicians can quickly locate buried assets, collect digital photos, scan 1D/2D barcodes and capture accurate 3D GPS positions to improve the accuracy of the GIS data.
