Strengths and Benefits of a Work Order System

The LAS Road and Sidewalk Assessment Service was launched in 2017 as a way to make high-quality, objective asset evaluation and management available to all municipalities. Since then the service has continued to grow and expand. We’re excited to announce the addition of a work order feature to the software, making it even easier to track and manage the work your team does to keep the community running.

Having a hard time keeping track of historical work orders? Unclear when current repair requests will be addressed?  Managing municipal maintenance operations can be challenging for Public Works departments, especially without the right tools. Work effortlessly with a comprehensive Work Order Management System that allows Municipal staff to:

  • Respond to inbound Citizen calls and requests
  • Track labor, repair and material costs
  • Inventory and categorize all assets
  • Automate repeating maintenance work as often as needed
  • Identify and capture all street assets with their exact location 
  • Capture work history and know replacement costs
  • Communicate effectively with mobile solution
  • Know your work orders and priorities for each day, week, month, throughout the year
  • Take the guess work out of what your day looks like!

Generally, work order systems are complicated to set up, expensive to implement and require a significant amount of training commitment. In order for a work order management system to be effective in a department, it must be simple and easy to navigate to find information with just a few clicks.  

Streetlogix's intuitive, easy-to-use work order management system gets your teams active and productive in minutes, bringing greater organization, efficiency, and accountability to your task management planning.

As the saying goes, municipal departments are constantly asked to do more with less. Less funding, less manpower and less time; and yet expectations for productivity continue to grow. Unfair! When the time comes for municipal departments to consider making an improvement to their bottom line, they should consider adopting a simple, easy-to-use Work Order solution like Streetlogix.
