Gloucestershire, UK, 26 March 2008 - Information management and mapping software from Mayrise Systems is underpinning one of the largest council led street lighting replacement programmes in London.
MAYRISE Street Lighting software with the integrated MapNow street mapping system is being used by Hackney Council to improve the recording of asset information, deliver a pro-active maintenance programme and assist with performance monitoring in light of new government legislation.
Using MapNow, the click to view mapping module, MAYRISE software integrates with Ordnance Survey mapping for the accurate identification of unit locations and with Hackney Councils centralised property gazetteer to facilitate communication with residents. Already one of the fastest improving councils in the country according to the Audit Commission, the system will help Hackney introduce new working practices and strategies; such as a paperless office, mobile working and remote monitoring.
MAYRISE Street Lighting is an advanced management system designed to simplify and improve the management of street lighting services, providing a single repository of all information relating to the service including detailed unit history, contractor information and customer communications.
“Mayrise Systems already provides an integrated solution for the recording of detailed asset information and the management of our pro-active maintenance programme and ambitious replacement scheme,” said Steve Carroll, Team Leader, Street Lighting in the Neighbourhoods and Regeneration division of Hackney Council. “This upgrade will enable us to continue to provide safer streets, through the provision of high quality street lighting, and will support our plans for a totally integrated Asset Management Plan, other strategic long term objectives together with day to day improvements in working practices.”
“Street Lighting is one of the council’s highly visible, front line services,” continued Mr Carroll. “Having the information we need available at click of a button helps us manage our day to day operations and improves the speed with which we can react to faults providing tangible benefits to residents.”
Hackney Council, a London Borough situated close to the City and the West End, is a long-term user of the advanced information management tools from Mayrise, with additional upgraded systems in place within the Highways and Street Works divisions of the council.
