Asset & Inspection Management

Rushmoor is a Local Government District and Borough in Hampshire, covering the towns of Aldershot and Farnborough. Rushmoor Borough Council has been a longstanding PSS customer since 2011, using PSSLive across multiple departments including Facilities, Grounds Maintenance, Highways, Playgrounds, Street Furniture and Trees.

Challenge

Managing workload across multiple departments — while handling job requests from internal customers, prioritising emergency work, maintaining accurate records and monitoring budgets against client contributions — was complex and reliant on paper-based processes. End of year processes were time-consuming and stationery and administration costs were adding up.

Solution

PSSLive supports Rushmoor's maintenance teams in prioritising workload and reacting to emergency jobs while maintaining accurate records of all work completed. Internal job requests are managed through the system, helping teams keep up with service level agreements across multiple departments.

Budgetary management is a key feature for Rushmoor — the system monitors costs against client contributions, with end of year processes significantly reduced as a result.

Results

  • PSSLive deployed across six departments — Facilities, Grounds Maintenance, Highways, Playgrounds, Street Furniture and Trees
  • Fully paperless operations reducing stationery and administration costs
  • Improved SLA compliance across all internal customers
  • Reactive emergency job management alongside scheduled maintenance
  • Significantly reduced end of year processes
  • Better service delivery to internal customers
