Closing the Loop
From Asset Intelligence to Work in the Field
Date: TBD 2026/27
The executive question
How do we turn our connected asset environment into completed operational work?
Creating a unified spatial asset environment does not automatically transform daily operations.
Key topics
- Connecting GIS, CMMS, EAM and service-request workflows
- Establishing consistent asset identifiers across systems
- Determining which system owns location, condition, work and financial information
- Converting map-based observations into inspections and work orders
- Providing mobile access to asset history and work instructions
Key takeaways
- Design an end-to-end workflow connecting GIS, inspections, work orders and field crews.
- Establish clear ownership of asset, condition and maintenance information.
- Use daily field activity to continuously improve the asset record.
- Reduce manual entry, duplicated information and disconnected departmental processes.
