What is Assets. United?

Put simply, Assets. United. is our answer to the following question:

“How do you manage customer expectations when you’re faced with shrinking budgets, rapidly deteriorating assets and ambitious net zero goals?”

With finite (and often shrinking) resources available for managing a diverse and complex range of assets – keeping things simple is key.

In the world of asset management, we frequently see local authorities using multiple legacy systems (often in conjunction with paper or spreadsheet-based processes). This can lead to unnecessary complexity, work duplication, human error and escalating costs.

Our solution? Assets. United. One partner, and one system to manage all the assets under your control.

Assets. United. approach simplifies complexity and cuts costs. It gives you real-time insights into how assets behave and affect each other, helping you make proactive, informed decisions for the long-term benefit of your community.
