Asset & component registers in Coordinator with GIS as the backbone

Structure, visualize, and manage assets and components throughout their lifecycle – fully integrated with GIS and daily operations.

Many municipalities and energy companies lack reliable, up-to-date overview of their technical assets. Information is spread across Excel files, GIS systems and other documents- making planning, maintenance and follow-up unneccessarily complex. isMobile´s Asset & Component Register creates a single, structured source of thruth for all assets and components- fully integrated with GIS and daily operations.

With Coordinator, asssets, components and work orders are gathered in a GIS-based operation and maintenance system that provides a better overview, higher data quality and more efficient field work.

Why asset data becomes a bottle neck in operation

  • Asset information spread across Excel, GIS, documents, and systems

  • Unclear ownership, outdated data, and limited traceability

  • Difficult to plan maintenance, prioritize investments, or follow up lifecycle costs

  • High dependency on individual knowledge

Target group

This solution is aimed at businesses that are responsible for the functioning of the municipality's infrastructure – from daily operation and maintenance to planning, documentation and follow-up – regardless of whether the work takes place in technical administrations, municipal operating organizations or municipal energy and multiutility companies.

To meet requirements for reliability, sustainability and efficient service to residents, a cohesive solution is required where facilities, components, work orders and geographical data interact. Coordinator functions as a modern operation and maintenance system that is based on the municipality's GIS warehouse and provides a complete digital structure for planning, fieldwork and follow-up.

A structured asset and component register – connected to reality

Assets represent facilities or networks, while components represent the technical parts that require inspection, maintenance, and replacement. From asset to component, in a full technical structure, The Coordinator connects everything – whether it's a valve, luminaire, electricity meter, pump or waste bin – to the right asset and the right geographical position. Through integration with ArcGIS, Geosecma, Tekis QGIS, Geoserver/PostGIS, objects are visualized directly in the map view, giving technicians and planners an intuitive overview of locations, status, history, and active work orders.

Map views and filters are used to plan inspections, maintenance rounds, operational measures, and emergency responses. In the event of fault reports from residents, cases can be automatically linked to the correct objects in the map, which reduces troubleshooting time and increases the quality of the feedback.

Assets represent facilities or networks. Components represent the technical parts that require inspection, maintenance, and replacement.

Automation and Quality Assurance

Coordinator reduces manual administration by automatically linking components to facilities, creating work orders based on component status, and validating tasks in the field. For example, valve overhauls, meter replacements, pumping station inspections or lighting repairs are automatically updated with their history and geographical location.

Documentation such as photos, protocols, and forms are saved directly on the object—providing a traceable and auditable history that is critical for both internal governance and regulatory requirements.

Integration into the municipality's operations

The system offers open APIs and can be integrated with the municipality's other IT environment: IoT platforms, fault reporting systems, document management, contractor portals, SCADA, water and wastewater systems, traffic control and ERP. The GIS repository is used as a common reference for geographic information, which contributes to more consistent and up-to-date information and quality assurance.

For businesses that work a lot with contractors, Coordinator enables a link between work orders, agreements and SLAs. This provides better follow-up, increased transparency and lower costs.

A system for the entire operations organization

Integrated with daily operations, Coordinator, supports workflows in:

  • Water and sewerage: leak detection, valve rounds, sampling, pumping station operation

  • Street/park: lighting faults, green space maintenance, playground inspections

  • Energy: meter replacements, network maintenance, cable cabinet inspection

  • Property: fire protection, ventilation, technical installations

  • Traffic: ITS equipment, control cabinets, signal maintenance

Summary

The Coordinator gathers GIS, component registers and work orders in a common system for municipal operation and maintenance. The result is a better overview, faster fault localisation, better prioritisation, higher data quality and more efficient fieldwork – from planning to follow-up.

Value and result

  • Reduced complexity and operational risk – validation and clear object couplings reduce error visits and recalls.

  • GIS-based overview – cases can be created from the map and planned geographically for faster action.

  • Higher data quality & traceability – history, photos and protocols are stored on each item.

  • Better follow-up of agreements/SLAs – work orders are linked to the right contractor and agreement.

  • Clear structure, ownership and traceability – across assets and components with history, photos and protocols.

  • Stronger and better service – faster feedback from fault report to action.

The result is that after implementation, municipalities and energy companies gain a shared, up‑to‑date overview of all assets and components, enabling proactive maintenance, better investment decisions, and lower operational risk.
