The system is built upon the established ArcGIS-based Geographic Information Management System (GIMS) that has been serving the mapping and information needs of several departments for several years. Cityworks integrated with the existing GIMS, "dramatically improves in many ways the manner in which the City conducts its business," says Wayne Dessens, chief engineer, City of Houston. The system allows the City to better utilise and track its resources, resulting in reduced costs to taxpayers. At the same time, the system provides significantly better services. The system is built on the premise that customer calls, inventory data, current work activities, and historical information can be best integrated geographically, providing the best possible tool for improved customer service. gViz GIS Solutions - Cityworks a best practice solution for Works Maintenance - GIS Centric. <hr> <div align="center"><a href="http://www.gviz.com.au"><img src="http://www.gviz.com.au/uploads/images/gviz_logo_lores.jpg" border="0" /></a></div> <center> <a href="http://www.gviz.com.au/index.php?page=case-studies">More gViz Case Studies</a> <center>© gViz 2009.
