Longmont, CO - May 13, 2008 - geoXMF LLC announced today that Honolulu Board
of Water Supply (BWS) has chosen geoXMF’s XMF Alerter real-time monitoring and
alerting solution for their enterprise GIS system. BWS decided to implement XMF
Alerter as part of an overall solution to meet agency-wide GIS requirements. XMF
Alerter will monitor intranet GIS performance across a distributed network connecting
multiple departments accessing and serving GIS data.
The Board of Water Supply (BWS) manages O‘ahu’s municipal water resources and
distribution system, providing residents with a reliable system and safe drinking water
supply. As the stewards of O‘ahu’s most precious resource, the Board’s nearly 600
employees embrace this tremendous responsibility.
The Board of Water Supply chose XMF Alerter based on proven technology and added
value of the geoXMF product to BWS’ IT and GIS services. Specifically, XMF Alerter
will monitor map services which are utilized by the Board’s award winning HONU GIS
(Honolulu ONline Utilities Geographic Information System) and be part of the overall IT
services that includes the CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management System) that
was rolled out in July, 2007.
HONU GIS enables employees to quickly and easily access critical water system data
and information. CMMS allows crew members to capture labor, vehicular/equipment,
and parts and materials costs via work orders, time sheets will be automatically calculated
at job completion, and an integrated electronic map will be readily available so that they
can make better and more informed decisions in the field.
geoXMF is currently assisting Honolulu Board of Water Supply with the implementation
of an enhanced version of XMF Alerter solution. geoXMF is projected to release this
new enhanced version in May 2008 to existing customers and new clients.
