Body
SUMMARY:
The City of Clearwater has used GeoNexus since 2015 to support field utility operations.
GeoNexus provides field mobility software solutions for integration of the City’s GIS (geographic information systems) and Asset Management software systems. The City’s use of GIS and Asset Management software by field operations across multiple departments has increased significantly over the past six years. This software solution simplifies and streamlines the field experience by providing a single application from which field personnel can access and reference data from multiple existing systems.
City infrastructure maintenance operations (including Gas, Water, Reclaimed Water, Urban Forestry, Stormwater and Water Pollution Control) perform thousands of tasks, both service order requests and maintenance work orders, over the course of a year. Improved efficiency of data access and data entry from the field will improve the quality of decisions and data entry.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
Funds are available in cost code 5559864-530300, contractual services, to fund this contract. Future years will be included in the department’s budget request.
