Public Works
Maintain critical infrastructure with modern GIS
Public works departments operate more efficiently when asset data, maintenance workflows, and operational systems are connected.
Quartic helps cities, counties, and regional agencies modernize GIS platforms, unify infrastructure data, and streamline workflows—so teams can focus on keeping roads, utilities, and facilities safe and operational, rather than managing disconnected systems.
Solving GIS Challenges for Public Works
Public works agencies must coordinate across multiple teams, departments, and service areas to maintain infrastructure and deliver reliable community services. When data is incomplete, outdated, or siloed, agencies can face delayed maintenance, inefficient inspections, and difficulties prioritizing critical repairs.
Below are the most common GIS challenges we see in public works organizations, and how partnering with Quartic helps agencies improve decision-making, reduce operational risk, and maintain the assets that communities rely on every day.
Problem: Incomplete or unreliable asset data
Incomplete or unreliable asset data
When asset data is outdated or inconsistent, public works teams struggle to locate roads, sidewalks, stormwater assets, signage, or facilities quickly and accurately. This slows maintenance response, increases the risk of service disruptions, and makes it harder to plan capital projects or preventative maintenance. Over time, gaps in asset data increase operational risk and erode confidence in system records.
OUR SOLUTION
Our Solution: Data You Can trust
Data You Can trust
- Standardize and validate asset data for accuracy and completeness
- Apply modern Esri public works data models and best practices
- Maintain data that is connected and usable across maintenance, operations, and planning
- Enable faster response times and confident long-term decision-making

Problem: Disconnected workflows between office and field
Disconnected workflows between office and field
When GIS, work management, and inspection workflows aren’t connected, updates from the field are delayed or lost. Asset changes may not be reflected in GIS, leading to inaccurate maps, repeated site visits, and inconsistent records across departments. These breakdowns increase costs, slow service delivery, and make coordination between crews and planners more difficult.
OUR SOLUTION
Our Solution: integrated GIS workflows
integrated GIS workflows
- Connect field data collection, asset updates, and operational systems
- Streamline how updates flow from the field to GIS and downstream systems
- Improve data accuracy and reduce rework
- Keep teams aligned and workflows consistent across departments
- Integrate GIS with business systems like SAP, EAM, Cityworks, AutoCAD, and GeoTab

Problem: Aging GIS platforms and tools
Aging GIS platforms and tools
Outdated GIS platforms limit how public works teams manage and share infrastructure data. Poor performance, limited multi-user editing, and disconnected systems make it difficult to keep data current as field conditions change. These limitations slow work orders, complicate coordination between departments, and increase reliance on paper maps or informal, undocumented processes.
OUR SOLUTION
Our Solution: Implement enterprise GIS foundations
Implement enterprise GIS foundations
- Enable multi-user editing and secure access to GIS data
- Integrate GIS with core public works systems for seamless operations
- Provide reliable tools that scale with system growth
- Build a practical GIS roadmap that supports the future

Problem: Limited internal GIS capacity
Limited internal GIS capacity
Many public works agencies rely on small GIS teams that are stretched thin supporting daily operations, system updates, and long-term initiatives. When capacity is limited, data maintenance falls behind, system upgrades are delayed, and critical projects compete for attention.
OUR SOLUTION
Our Solution: Augment internal teams
Augment internal teams
- Get project support to advance high-priority GIS initiatives
- Receive guidance for system maintenance and upgrades
- Reduce workload on existing staff without adding permanent overhead
- Establish sustainable, long-term GIS operations
