Asset Management

 

Asset Management

Jones Edmunds understands the challenges our clients face preserving and managing their aging infrastructure.  Asset management has become an essential approach to infrastructure administration, helping keep maintenance and preservation costs under control while maintaining the level of service expected.  Recent federal guidelines, including those set forth in the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, Statement 34 and 35, and the Environmental Protection Agency’s Capacity, Management, Operation and Maintenance (CMOM) program, call for public agencies to improve the tracking, management, operation, reporting, and financial accounting for their capital assets. 

At Jones Edmunds we help our clients use their asset management systems to achieve tangible benefits and a return-on-investment, making compliance with these federal mandates a mere side benefit.   

Capturing and maintaining accurate infrastructure data are the foundation of the asset-management systems Jones Edmunds implements.  Additionally, through the use of a single geospatial asset database, the GIS geodatabase, accurate and timely information is available to support the asset-maintenance lifecycle and other business processes within your organization. 


We help our clients in all aspects of the lifecycle of asset management; from the initial implementation plan and the geospatial inventory and condition assessment to the onsite implementation and configuration of the computerized maintenance management software (CMMS).  We perform these services at the enterprise and the department level, depending on the scale of the implementation.  Our typical tasks for the life-cycle of asset management projects include:

  • Data and Work Flow Analysis
  • Implementation Planning
  • Geodatabase Design
  • Infrastructure Inventory and Condition Assessments
  • Custom Field Data Collection Solutions
  • CMMS Configuration and Implementation
  • Ongoing Support and Training
