Field Asset Management

End-to-End Solutions for Utilities and Telecoms
In the utilities and telecommunications industries, managing outside infrastructure assets, field workers, vendors, and subcontractors that are geographically dispersed is a common challenge. Add to that the necessity of maintaining a full view of the overall workflow and this challenge can become a critical problem. Apex has the understanding of GIS, GPS, and workforce management systems to deliver end-to-end solutions.

Covering Industry Needs
An enterprise with dispersed assets requires periodic full asset inventory checks, as well as both planned maintenance and problem-based maintenance, which may entail equipment replacement, problem resolution, vegetation management and much more — all of which should be monitored and tracked to ensure efficiency and keep costs down. Less frequent events, like a full M&A asset inventory, are even more demanding. Utilities and telecom providers need a partner who can make these tasks routine, reliable, and economical.

Mapping Critical Assets
From simple map convergence to delivery of comprehensive GIS mapping systems, it's all about data. Data that adds value to a utility or telecom may involve networks, locations, field asset inventory, workforce, or other assets of any type in any position. Apex's skill with GIS captures and converts all types of enterprise data into multi-purpose maps. These maps can be combined with other GPS and digital imagery data by Apex’s revolutionary ProField^® field asset management system to give asset managers and other senior executives real-time visibility into the performance of an inventory or an entire asset management program.

The Benefits of Effective Management
Full utilization of GPS and digital imagery can intuitively guide field team members through the complete lifecycle of a project, from initial inspection to installation and through to eventual equipment removal. Quality Assurance is preserved throughout for field auditors, while the quality of team training is also supported by integrated live imagery. When Apex brings all the diverse elements of field and asset management into clear focus using the latest geospatial technologies and proprietary tools like ProField^®, utility and telecom companies can make the most of all their assets.
