“ We learnt that Yotta DCL had performed video surveys for a number of neighbouring authorities and we were looking for a survey partner that could carry out inventory data collection for us that was accurate and reliable at a reasonable cost . Yotta DCL visited us and demonstrated what they could do and that was the start of our partnership ”
Iolo Jones , Senior Asset Engineer .
In addition , Yotta DCL provides machine-based Traffic Speed Condition surveys ( SCANNER ) for Anglesey .
Because Anglesey did not have UKPMS ( UK Pavement Management System ) software , the Council was reliant on Yotta DCL ’ s expertise to provide it with the Key Performance Indicators and Whole of Government Accounting reports following the surveys .
“ Yotta DCL ’ s Professional Services team was very helpful to us . We had a primary contact who we dealt with and he provided us with everything we needed . We were very happy with the support – and we continue to enjoy good service ”
Iolo Jones .
New Horizons to presenting survey data
As the relationship developed , the opportunity arose to show Horizons to Iolo Jones and his colleagues .
“ Yotta DCL ’ s consultants came to us with Horizons . We were very impressed with how user friendly the software is to get quick answers . Our engineers and highways inspectors were able to use it too . They could quickly upload our SCANNER and Skid Resistance Surveys and add other information such as reactive works and complaints into the system . There is also the potential for us to map road traffic incidents on the network map . We decided that Horizons would be a step in the right direction for Anglesey and put it on trial . Using it we could see that we could move from worst-first to a priority driven methodology for our maintenance and repair schemes ,” says Iolo Jones .
