City Of Houston Capital Improvement Plan

Project

Project
The City of Houston, one of the nation’s largest and most diverse metropolitan areas, manages a vast portfolio of infrastructure improvements through its annual Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). To keep pace with the city’s growing needs, the Public Works & Engineering Department sought a centralized, technology-driven system to streamline project delivery, strengthen collaboration, and ensure transparency.

The Challenge
With hundreds of active projects under its CIP, Houston faced the challenge of consolidating data, ensuring field accuracy, and keeping project teams aligned across multiple divisions. The department needed a system that could:

  • Manage and track hundreds of projects in real-time

  • Support both desktop and mobile data collection, including offline use

  • Provide GIS-based visualization for easier project navigation and oversight

  • Enhance inspectors’ ability to capture and manage field construction data

  • Facilitate secure collaboration across diverse project participants

Solution

Solution
ATSER® was selected to provide staff and deploy Manage-IT™, a web-based CIP Management System supported by an Oracle database. The solution was customized to meet Houston’s complex requirements and introduced several key capabilities:

  • GIS Integration: A powerful GIS interface became the primary entry point, enabling users to easily navigate hundreds of projects by location.

  • Mobile Data Collection: Field inspectors could use mobile devices to capture construction data directly onsite, with offline functionality for areas lacking connectivity.

  • Real-Time Collaboration: Project data was centralized and shared via browsers, allowing seamless communication and collaboration across teams.

  • Document & Data Control: The system provided secure, role-based access to project content, improving accuracy and accountability.

  • Quality Oversight: Inspectors could better track field testing and compliance, ensuring higher standards of construction quality.
