Benefits of an Integrated Compliance Management System
Compliance?
• compliance (n.) The act of complying with a wish, request, or demand
• compliance (n.) A disposition or tendency to yield to the will of others
Compliance Management
General Business Processes• Corrosion Control • Leak Surveys • Facility Inspections • Leakage Management
Layers of Data Management Assets Scheduling Field Data Collection Archival and Reports
Challenges
• Range of Automation Across the Industry• Paper-based Scheduling, Field Collection, Archival• Integrated Work and Resource Management Solutions
• First and Second Generation Solutions• Mainframe• Spreadsheets• Customized, Fit for Purpose
• Intra-Utility Disparity• Silo Applications• Individual Department Responsibility• Mergers and Acquisitions
Challenges (cont.)
• Aging Workforce / Inexperienced Workforce• Accomplish more with less• Managing and securing volumes of historical
information• Increased Regulation and Oversight
Challenges (cont.)
• In implementing a compliant solution, either internally built or an external solution from a vendor – the question is will that solution implemented today, be compliant tomorrow and what will it take to be meet those compliancy changes?
Automation and Integration
• General Characteristics• Maintain and Track Assets• Inspect and Survey on Prescribed Cyclical Basis• Maintain auditable records to demonstrate compliance

Managing Asset Data
• Enterprise data management approach• Consolidate to eliminate departmental silos • Reduce data maintenance and redundancy
• GIS & Asset Repository
Managing Asset Data – GIS Benefits
• Provides spatial benefit, location based info
• Up to date / as-built state of network• Assists with defining and organizing
geographical based compliance processes – Business District Surveys, One-Fifth Surveys, CP Zones
Managing Asset Data - Trends
• Asset Maintenance Integrated With Compliance• Field verification of asset data while collecting inspection and
survey data
• Integration of external asset repository with GIS• GIS provides location and basic definition of assets• Asset Repository provides detailed attribution• Not all users need or want a map-based interface• Cost and learning curve of GIS
Schedule and Resource Management
• Integration with Asset Database• Detect change in lifecycle and schedule accordingly• GIS – visualize inspection locations, results, etc.
• Automation expectations• Automatic date calculation and
re-scheduling• Warnings• Maintain resource assignments• Paperless environment
Schedule and Resource Management
• Consolidated view and management of all compliance activities • Frees manager to focus on effectively managing the workforce and
analysis• Results : Back office
worker efficiency
gains through
centralized
management
• Integration Examples • WMS• ERP• Resource Scheduling Systems
Electronic Archives
• Provides audit trail – when, who, what, etc.• Secure storage of information• Electronic searches• More efficient regulatory audit prep time• Accessible throughout the enterprise – extended analysis
Field User Efficiency
• Simple, easy to use interface• Minimize errors, ensure
completeness• Cleanse and verify Asset Data• Integration with Mobile Mapping
• Visualize locations and workload• Routing• Capture location based information –
Leak Locations, Pipe Exposures
Compliancy…….
