    GBM Konect field management in Bendigo: practical lessons for asset engineers

    GBM Konect field management in Bendigo: practical lessons for asset engineers

    First reported on Roads & Infrastructure (AU)

    30 Second Briefing

    City of Bendigo’s Coordinator GIS & Asset Information, Paul Nicholson, is deploying GBM Konect, a mobile field management app, to overhaul how road and drainage assets are captured and maintained in the field. Konect’s flexible data model allows crews to map linear assets, attach photos and condition data offline, and sync directly to the council’s central GIS rather than relying on point-only, office-based systems. For civil and asset engineers, this means faster defect logging, fewer data transcription errors, and more reliable spatial information for pavement and drainage renewal planning.

    Technical Brief

    • Konect was selected after benchmarking “a few different systems” for GIS field data capture flexibility.
    • Similar councils with dispersed road networks and legacy GIS can replicate this approach without replacing core systems.

    Our Take

    With only a handful of Software stories in our coverage, GBM Konect’s field management focus stands out against a portfolio that is otherwise dominated by physical project delivery rather than digital tooling.

    Most of the 71 tag-matched ‘Projects’ pieces centre on construction and infrastructure outcomes in Australia, so a software-led case involving the City of Bendigo signals that local councils are becoming early adopters of structured field-data platforms rather than relying solely on contractors’ systems.

    Featuring a named practitioner like Paul Nicholson alongside GBM Konect aligns with a pattern in our database where software uptake in Australian infrastructure is driven less by central IT and more by project managers seeking auditability and real-time visibility on dispersed worksites.

    GBM Konect in Bendigo: integrated road asset data and planning lessons for engineers

    Road maintenance planning in the City of Bendigo has been overhauled using GBM Konect integrated directly with the council’s asset management system, linking live field data from graders, patching trucks and concreting crews to central asset records. Crews now capture condition data, photos and completed works on mobile devices in real time, feeding GIS-based maps that prioritise pavement interventions and reduce duplicated site visits. For contractors and councils, the approach shows how tighter integration between field data capture and asset registers can sharpen programming of resurfacing and rehabilitation works.

    GeoStudio 2025.2: 3D Sweep and scripting upgrades explained for designers

    GeoStudio 2025.2 adds a 3D Sweep Option that extrudes 2D geometries along user-defined paths, enabling faster setup of complex 3D embankments, tunnels and slopes without full re‑meshing. The release upgrades GeoStudio Python scripting with improved object access and automation of batch analyses, and expands language support to Simplified Chinese, Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish. For practitioners, this means quicker parametric studies, easier integration with in‑house workflows, and wider deployment across multinational design teams.

    Revizto on Warringah Freeway Upgrade: coordination lessons for civil teams

    Revizto is being used by Arcadis on the Warringah Freeway Upgrade in New South Wales, one of Australia’s most complex road infrastructure packages, to federate design models and site data into a single digital coordination hub. The cloud-based platform supports clash detection, issue tracking and 3D/2D model viewing across disciplines, enabling designers, constructors and client teams to work off a common data environment in real time. For geotechnical and civil teams, this centralised model management tightens interface control around retaining structures, cut-and-cover works and staging constraints on a heavily trafficked urban corridor.
