Intelligent Transport Systems

AFMS (Asset & Fault Management System) – this virtualised application is built to operate in a private VMware cloud-based infrastructure to integrate the management of all ITS assets across an authority’s network, delivering smartphone and tablet connectivity to roadside engineers to securely manage all equipment faults, inspections and maintenance tasks and asset management across multiple contractors.

The AFMS provides a comprehensive central management and reporting function for both client and contractor organisations that are linked to Key Performance Indicators so that all activities are geared to common goals. Full regular and ad hoc reports can be delivered at the click of the mouse and a ‘dashboard’ provides a real-time operational management overview of the performance of assets and organisations. The system delivers map and tabular views of the data to ensure users, engineers and managers can quickly and effectively understand and resolve issues on their network.

The system brings many benefits, for instance: improvements in application response and accessibility; greater efficiencies and higher achievement of KPIs; more efficiently planned and scheduled maintenance activities; and, fast and effective generation of various reports for comprehensive analysis.
