Datastream 7i v7.9 was released the last week of April. The latest version of Datastream 7i builds on its extensive integration with ESRI’s ArcGIS suite of products with enhanced linear asset management capabilities and improved data management. Customers with extensive linear assets, including public works and water/wastewater treatment departments, oil & gas companies, transportation agencies, public utilities and communication service providers, can now more effectively manage and optimize all of their assets including pipes, roads, rails and utility lines as well as the fixed assets that occupy those linear networks.
Additionally, this release includes enhancements supporting repairable spares, invoicing and advanced reporting, as well as improved functionality to facilitate materials management, purchasing, data collection, fleet management and organization-to-organization data transfer.

> Asset Management Software Going a Little Further
by LaQuita Owens, Building Services Management
What do a billion dollar ketchup company and the Atomic Energy Commission in France have in common? How about the city of San Jose and The University of South Australia?
They are all utilizing the latest technology in asset management software to oversee their facilities’ physical maintenance and track their assets.
They’re also taking today’s software technology a step further by not only tracking and helping to maintain their assets, but also analyzing data to help reduce company costs and maximize their long-term returns on investment.
Facilities managers can now manage inventory, as well as track work orders and service requests via Web-architected software that can be tailored to specific sites, depending upon the type of facility using the software.

> City of Miami Beach Recognized for Excellence in Building Management
The property management department of the City of Miami Beach is responsible for over 240 municipal buildings, plus dozens of parks, bridges, boardwalks and other properties around the city. To maintain the various properties, the city utilizes over 200 vendors along with the department's own 70 employees.
“With Datastream’s user-friendly automated system, our employees have access to everything they need right at their fingertips to immediately process work orders...
We would be blind without having the Datastream solution in place.”
Brad A. Judd
Director of Property Management
City of Miami Beach |
The property management department needed to replace its paper-based and manual processes with a centralized and automated system to improve overall property and service management. They looked to Datastream 7i to automate their work order process, generate reports, and provide user-friendly tracking for projects and maintenance.
Since deploying Datastream software, the City of Miami Beach Property Management Department has won the “Energy Project of the Year” award from the Association of Energy Engineers, the Historic Preservation “Hall of Fame” award from Miami-Dade Heritage Trust, and an incredible ten “TOBY” Awards from the Building Owners and Manager’s Association, which is the highest award given in the commercial real estate industry honoring excellence in office building management.
