Accela Automation® provides Public Works departments an integrated asset and work management solution that is designed to work with the way you work. With Accela Automation, there is no limit to the number and type of assets a department can inventory. Each asset’s condition, value, preventative maintenance schedule, and historical maintenance records can be tracked to assist with GASB 34/35 reporting. This functionality is provided while also supporting multi-organization implementations that allow each user group to view the data the way it needs it.

Complete automation for Public Works departments:

Monitor key performance indicators. Using Accela SmartCharts™, each individual, including executives, can monitor real-time statistics. All data in Accela Automation or external databases can be displayed in quick- and easy-to-read charts, providing the information needed to monitor performance and assist in decision-making.

Integrate with ESRI® GIS to expedite work order creation and asset identification. Accela GIS™ provides access to geographic representations of infrastructure assets, maintenance work, and service requests. Accela GIS empowers mobile work forces by providing GIS functionality in the office and in the field using Accela Wireless™. Agencies also have the option to leverage GIS as the official asset registry and perform maintenance against the GIS records.

Maximize time in the field with mobile data entry. Accela Wireless allows field supervisors to create, assign, complete, reschedule, record costs, and/or cancel work orders from the field and receive last-minute updates or alerts on their mobile device. Since Accela Wireless is a very robust extension of Accela Automation, your department can also leverage it as an asset data collection tool.

Track asset inventory and history through the lifetime of the asset. Asset history, including maintenance and condition assessment data, is maintained life-to-date in the solution.

Track requests for service from inception to completion. Leveraging Accela Citizen Access™, Accela Automation can track each request for service through to its completion. A service request can be associated to one or many work orders, allowing for the full life cycle and cost of a service request to be captured.

Produce professional reports with graphics and charts. Reporting and data extraction is made easy in Accela Automation. Data can be directly exported to a spreadsheet from anywhere in the solution. Accela Report Manager, an out-of-the-box product, provides reporting capabilities. If your agency is leveraging a third-party reporting tool, such as Crystal, Oracle, or MS Reporting Services, Accela Automation can seamlessly integrate the report, making it easily accessible by your users.
