摘要
The nation of Zambia is located in southern Africa. The Road Development Agency (RDA) manages over 5,000 bridges and culverts on the national road network. The RDA recently embarked on a plan to inventory and inspect all of the bridges and culverts in the nation. Multiple teams spent months traveling Zambia's roads and collecting the information utilizing tablet computers with interactive inspection forms. Inspectors were able to quickly enter in condition and inventory information on each structure. The software includes detailed drop-downs for each field and allowed for the quick upload and attachment of photographs and other files. Users are able to generate individual inspection reports or summary reports for a roadway network from any tablet or networked computer. The software's management component allows for the meeting performance measures, prioritization of needs, and other asset management based on specific Zambia RDA business processes.
