Capita has launched a new asset management system, OpenAsset, using a geographic information system (GIS) to enable housing providers to manage all of their properties and assets from a single point. Using map-based images, housing staff can quickly recognise which assets need maintenance and attend to those without needing to return to the office.
Users can tailor the system to their own requirements, highlighting key features such as: asset, hazard and fleet registries; asset and stakeholder management; financial and mapping reporting; customer surveys and inspections; and the creation of workflows and automated alerts for scheduled work.
OpenAsset is available within Capita’s current suite of housing management software but is also available as a separate solution.
