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.
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 When data is incomplete, outdated, or siloed, agencies can face delayed maintenance, inefficient inspections, and difficulties prioritizing critical repairs.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.
When asset data is outdated or inconsistent, public works teams struggle to locate roads, sidewalks, stormwater assets, signage, or facilities quickly and accurately.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.

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.

Outdated GIS platforms limit how public works teams manage and share infrastructure data.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.

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.

The City of San Diego’s Public Utilities Department (PUD) serves more than 2.3 million wastewater customers and provides drinking water to 1.4 million residents. The department manages a vast infrastructure network, including nine reservoirs, three water treatment plants, three wastewater treatment plants, 131 pump stations, and over 6,300 miles of pipelines. To support day-to-day operations, thousands of city…
The City of San Diego has recently expanded its green waste recycling program to include weekly organic waste recycling collection for all households currently eligible for collection services. This is good news as it'll enable the City to get closer to its goal of reducing waste being put into landfills. The City’s goal is to…
The City of Cupertino, located in the heart of Silicon Valley, serves a population of approximately 60,000 residents. The City relies on GIS and its enterprise asset management (EAM) system, Cityworks, to support daily operations across departments—particularly for field crews managing public works assets. Prior to this project, Cupertino had already made progress integrating GIS…
Implementing Asset Management In 2018, the City of San Diego rolled out Phase 1 of a SAP-based software solution to improve the City’s management of infrastructure assets. The IAM San Diego Project, a citywide strategic initiative to develop and implement an integrated SAP-based software solution, is now being used for asset-based planning; capital asset management,…
