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

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

    First reported on Roads & Infrastructure (AU)

    30 Second Briefing

    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.

    Technical Brief

    • Similar Konect–asset system integrations could extend to kerbs, drainage pits and footpaths using the same data model.

    Our Take

    GBM Konect appears in only a handful of our Software-category items compared with larger enterprise platforms, so the City of Bendigo deployment signals the product is starting to win reference sites in Australian local government rather than just niche engineering users.

    Because this is tagged as both Product and Projects, it suggests Konect is being framed not just as a GIS tool but as a full project-delivery platform for municipal road and drainage works, which can influence how councils structure contracts and data standards with civil contractors.

    Among the several Software stories in our coverage, very few are tied so explicitly to a single council like the City of Bendigo, which means performance and user feedback from this roll-out will likely be watched closely by other Australian municipalities considering similar mobile field management systems.

    GeoStudio deep well dewatering example: design and stability insights for engineers

    Dewatering design for a deep well system is modelled in GeoStudio using SEEP/W to simulate transient drawdown and quantify inflow to an excavation, with wells arranged around the perimeter and pumped to lower the groundwater table below formation level. The example compares different pumping rates and well spacings, showing effects on pore water pressures, hydraulic gradients and potential instability in adjacent slopes and structures. For practitioners, it illustrates how to test alternative layouts and pumping schedules numerically before committing to well installation on site.

    Eclipse SourceOne EKPS upgrade and rebrand: data integration notes for mine engineers

    Eclipse Mining Technologies is rebranding and releasing a major upgrade of its SourceOne® Enterprise Knowledge Performance System (EKPS) to push AI-enabled decision support beyond mining into other large-scale industries. The new SourceOne release is positioned to integrate operational, planning and maintenance data into a single knowledge layer, aiming to make AI models more auditable and practical for site engineers and managers. For mine operators, this signals tighter linkage between short-interval control, fleet and plant data, and future cross-industry benchmarking on a common EKPS platform.

    Schneider Electric EcoStruxure Foxboro DCS: modernisation takeaways for mine control engineers

    Schneider Electric has launched EcoStruxure Foxboro Software Defined Automation, billed as the first open, software‑defined Distributed Control System, combining its long‑running Foxboro DCS platform with a virtualised, hardware‑agnostic control layer. The system is aimed at hybrid and process industries, including mining, to decouple control applications from proprietary controllers and run them on standard IT infrastructure. For brownfield plants with legacy Foxboro I/A hardware, this architecture offers a staged path to modernisation, remote operations and tighter integration with existing MES and historian systems.
