Area firm’s software boosts Indiana city

A Beavercreek engineering company is providing an Indiana city with a computer program to help manage the city’s engineering and street work.

Carmel, Indiana has hired Woolpert to implement its “Cityworks Asset Management System” for Carmel’s engineering and streets departments, helping the city north of Indianapolis manage and maintain those assets, Woolpert announced Monday.

A dollar amount for the contract wasn’t immediately given.

Woolpert has worked for the city before, implementing the software for Carmel’s Water and Sanitary Sewer divisions. Jeff Pesler, Woolpert project manager, said the success of those initial projects has led to this newest work.

“This support allows them to streamline processes across departments and to benefit the city as a whole,” Pesler said in a Woolpert statement.

Woolpert said it has conducted more of these software implementations than any other firm, nearly 400. More than a dozen of the company’s staff members are internationally certified by the Institute for Asset Management, the firm said. Two of these certified staff members also have earned advanced institute degrees.
