opportunities for career development.

Implement an Infrastructure
Maintenance and Management

With tens of thousands of signs and
thousands of traffic signals, LADOT
requires a system to track where and
when our attention is needed. By
knowing more about the condition of
our assets, we can identify required
resources, be more efficient about
how we schedule work, and stay
ahead of the curve on repairs.

system to achieve operational
efficiencies and be proactive about
maintenance

complete map-based electronic
work order system
