Transportation asset management for fleets and the roads they run on

Scheduled PM keeps buses and plows in service, condition data keeps bridges and pavement funded, and every inspection is documented before the auditor asks.

Vehicles that make the morning run

A transit bus costs $500K+ and the service runs whether it's ready or not. Scheduled PM on every unit catches the failing component in the garage overnight - not on the route at 7 AM.

Infrastructure risk you can see

Over 40% of Canadian transportation infrastructure is past its design life. Condition scores on every segment and structure, ranked by consequence of failure, put the next problem on the map before it closes a lane.

Compliance without the binder chase

Bridge inspections, vehicle safety certifications, environmental audits - all of it documented, scheduled, and traceable. When the ministry asks, the answer is a report, not a week of digging.

Catch the breakdown in the garage, not on the route

Every unit gets a PM schedule on the interval its duty demands: monthly safety checks on the buses running 18 hours a day, pre-season service on the plows. Work orders generate themselves when service comes due, so it happens overnight, between runs, on your terms.

  • Fixed dates for safety inspections, rolling intervals for service
  • Work orders created automatically when service comes due
  • Full maintenance and cost history per vehicle
  • Repair history shows which units keep coming back to the shop

The road network, on the map and in the plan

Model roads, bridges, and culverts as segments and nodes on a fast vector-tile map. PCI surveys stream in through update-mode GIS imports, the map paints by projected replacement year, and each network's average condition and condition distribution turn hundreds of lane-kilometres into figures council understands.

  • Segments and nodes on a fast vector-tile map
  • PCI survey results imported in bulk via GIS
  • Map painted by condition or replacement year
  • Average condition per network to defend the roads budget

Every inspection on schedule, every finding tracked

Bridge inspections, vehicle safety certifications, environmental audits - transit and public works run on documented compliance. Recurring schedules surface what's due before it lapses, and every deficiency becomes a work order with photos, dates, and a closeout trail.

  • Recurring inspection schedules with reminders
  • Certificates and reports attached to the asset
  • Deficiencies convert to tracked work orders
  • Audit trails for federal and provincial reviews

“Having visual metrics on asset age and maintenance history in one place has changed how I think about long-term planning. I can see at a glance which assets are aging, what work has been done on them, and how that factors into our capital planning.”

Transportation Asset Management FAQ

Common questions about fleet maintenance, road networks, inspections, and replacement planning.

What is transportation asset management software?
It's a platform that combines a fleet CMMS with infrastructure condition tracking and capital planning: scheduled maintenance for vehicles, condition scores for roads and structures, documented inspections, and the long-term forecasts that decide what gets replaced when.
How does preventive maintenance scheduling work for fleet vehicles?
Each vehicle gets PM schedules on a calendar interval, from weekly circle checks to annual inspections. Fixed schedules hold exact dates for safety certifications; rolling schedules reset from the last completed service. Work orders generate automatically when service comes due, and every job adds to the unit's history. PM is scheduled by date today, not by odometer or engine-hour readings.
Can AssetLab manage road networks and pavement condition?
Yes. The Infrastructure module models roads as segments and nodes on a fast vector-tile map. Stream PCI surveys in through update-mode GIS imports, paint the map by projected replacement year, and defend the roads budget with each network's average condition, condition distribution and backlog.
Can AssetLab track bridge inspections and vehicle certifications?
Yes. Compliance tracking links recurring inspections and certifications to the PM schedules that generate the work, computes each item's status from the work orders completed, logs results with photos and documents, and turns deficiencies into tracked work orders - a full audit trail for federal and provincial reviews.
How does AssetLab help with fleet replacement planning?
Every vehicle carries its age, condition, service history, and lifetime maintenance cost - so the replacement planner can rank the fleet by remaining useful life and forecast replacement spend 20 years out. You replace the bus that's costing you money, not the one that's merely oldest.
Is AssetLab suitable for municipal public works departments?
Yes - snowplows, refuse trucks, roads, and bridges all live in the same account, alongside facilities and parks if you manage those too. See how municipalities use AssetLab across every department.
