Asset Knowledge Management

Kleinfelder has a proven method for utility data acquisition with an emphasis on obtaining asset knowledge and for upload into the operator’s asset system of record. Programs have been successfully developed, deployed, and executed for several large utility providers across the United States, and have helped modernize operators’ construction and as-building processes to ensure records are maintained. Over the past decade, Kleinfelder has developed an efficient repeatable process rooted in regulatory compliance to comply with 49 CFR, §192.624 (MAOP Reconfirmation). This is a proven method to acquire asset knowledge, regardless of the system.
