When asked to find what industries that use Cityworks that utilize asset management, I think the more pertinent question to ask is “What industry doesn’t utilize asset management?” I’m being 100% legit, is there no industry here that looks at asset management and goes “Meh I’m good?” Nah. They all want a bit of that asset management pie, and to be quite frank, who can blame em? Just from looking over the power of the tools, from things like easy mapping tools to risk assessment, Cityworks provides many a service for those who need to streamline and modernize their work. I do have to say I am quite interested in the Transportation aspect of all this. One of the biggest complaints about public transport is that it’s not well maintained, so to be able to use Cityworks asset management to restore faith in public transit, that’s a win in my book.

With all the tools utilized by Cityworks, I do have to say I am impressed with how much of it was able accessed via cell phone. Normally one would have to lug around a laptop everywhere they go in order to make inputs into the system, but by being able to use a smart device not only do you not have to worry about that, it also makes the tools much more accessible to the average person, and it can be done quickly. Good thing too, my laptop is heavy. Although if I were to take full advantage of Cityworks and GIS via phone I may need a better SD card. Thing is constantly filling up for some reason, even though I barely have anything downloaded. That being said I do wonder how much space it does take up on a phone? If it turns out to be quite the space taker perhaps a new project could be to make a light version. How that would work, I do not know, I am not an app designer. Food for thought though.
