Implementation

Philosophy

Our standard implementation philosophy is to train and equip staff to set up the Assetic system. This does not mean Assetic equip your staff and walk away; it is a means of transferring system ownership through a hand-holding process. There will be some areas on which we concentrate more and some areas in which users will do the bulk of the setup .

All core software installation, customisation, user roles and special reports can be fully managed by Assetic. We will work with your teams to get the correct structuring of data, testing of models, integrity testing, bulk uploading etc.

All implementation is completed by working with IT, engineering, finance, depot and HR staff to ensure that system implementation is performed seamlessly across your organisation.

We can also undertake specific agency customisations and can set up links with your internal financial, geospatial and other third party systems.

Assetic’s product implementation pyramid is shown in the figure to your right. As the software is modular and can be purchased in tiers, the implementation may also occur in a step-by-step fashion.

Accelerated Implementation Program

The following provides the details of a typical accelerated implementation program for the Assetic products. These accelerated implementation programs are used to populate and get a site up and running in as little as two to four months if required.

myData, myValuer and SAM

• Software set up on agency machines and deployment of database on network.
• Data collation and clean up with assistance from agency staff.
• Cross-linking various available datasets in consultation with agency staff as part of project team.
• Data import, set up of user specific navigation, pick-lists, attributes and all available condition, capacity, functionality data, in consultation with agency staff as part of project team.
• Set up combinations and rules/formulae for asset valuations, risk management, condition assessment scaling in consultation with agency staff as part of project team.
• Key user training: Two day user training on site. Note that this user training is for key users who would not have been part of the implementation team. It is expected that agency’s implementation team would be a power user as part of the implementation process.

myPredictor and SAM

• Setting up agency’s established condition rating scales, degradation rankings.
• Analysing available data in consultation with agency staff as part of project team.
• Setting up established life cycle models and degradation profiles consultation with agency staff as part of project team.
• Testing and calibration of models to suit agency requirements.
• Setting up prediction models and running analyses.
• Key user training: One day user training on site. Note that this user training is for key users who would not have been part of the implementation team. It is expected that the agency’s implementation team would be a power user as part of the implementation process.

myData Premium

• Understanding and application of agency's maintenance service levels.
• Interpretation and application of Defect Intervention Level, activities and response times for repairs.
• Training in development of Asset Inspection Plans.
• Onsite inspection and identification of sample defects.
• Training in development of Works Program.
• Prioritisation of maintenance work based on risk/response time.
• Using integrated maintenance planning module to schedule and track maintenance Work.
