Sign Management

PubWorks Sign Management.

• Our GPS Asset Data Collector allows your sign technicians to collect placement, attribute and condition data in the field.

• The GPS Asset Data Collector synchs with the main PubWorks database creating or updating sign asset records as appropriate.

• Our GIS MapViewer will automatically create spatial data for newly inventoried signs so they can be seen on your maps.

• Maintenance Plans are easy to establish and our To Do List will create Work Orders to keep you ahead of the sign maintenance curve.

• As Work Orders are completed, labor, equipment and material costs are automatically recorded and associated with each sign appropriately.

• This record of work refreshes your To Do List and allows you to rest easily knowing your sign inventory is regulation compliant and is protecting the traveling public

How to do Sign Management?

• Your first and perhaps most obvious step is to create a current inventory of signs.

• Place your signs realistically into your asset hierarchy by associating them with the roads, streets, parks, parking lots, etc... to which they belong.

• Collect custom attributes that add definition and detail to the signs in your inventory.

• Use industry standard MUTCD codes and images to help identify signs in a standard fashion.

• Establish regular maintenance intervals and systematically inspect, repair and replace signs.

• Keep detailed records of work performed and their associated costs for management, compliance and legal reasons.

Why is Sign Management so Important.

• Safety - signs are designed to protect the traveling public.

• Compliance - the Retro Reflectivity regulation is right around the corner.

• Visibility - signs are a very conspicuous Public Works asset.

• Volume - even small agencies have thousands of signs.
