why canopy
As a public agency or municipality, you are tasked with being a good steward of public dollars. You must also make regular, major infrastructure investments, often with limited information. To accomplish both, we believe you shouldn’t have to make decisions without data, but you also shouldn’t have to spend years building a perfect set of data to do so. The solution is canopy.
start making smarter decisions faster
canopy is a GIS and data management system that empowers public works professionals to improve their asset database, guide maintenance actions, and prioritize capital investments, all in an easy-to-use, web-based environment. Although there are other data management tools out there, we believe that a truly strong system must be flexible to provide knowledge that grows with you.
As a result, canopy can adapt to your needs, regardless of where you are starting within the asset management lifecycle, so you can begin making smarter decisions for the infrastructure you build and manage.
take an integrated approach to your assets
canopy also promotes the integration of all your asset types into a holistic system for evaluation and maintenance. While other tools focus on specific asset types, without the ability to consolidate by street segment or potential project limits, canopy allows you to avoid the potential pitfalls of this siloed decision-making.
No longer do each each of your departments have to solely focus on the assets they maintain. With our tools, you can plan projects by integrating risk scores with planning-level construction cost estimates across all asset types.
lines of service
Consolidate your data into a holistic view of all assets that your entire team can access and manage. Immediately begin leveraging the data you have to manage risk, using canopy’s automated Risk Factor calculation (based on ISO 31000 guidelines) for each asset, and start making smarter, integrated, and data-driven improvement decisions for your infrastructure. With canopy for risk management, you can also begin comparing projects based on both risk and total cost; canopy uses custom algorithms to create a planning-level construction cost estimate for proposed projects.
Save time and money by automating and simplifying internal processes and workflows, from collecting data to automating an annual curb/sidewalk program to managing annual inspections, all using customized tools.
Give your entire team access to GIS mapping and industry data without paying for expensive GIS licenses and servers. View and edit the GIS data in the field or in the office and keep your asset data up to date.
