BOURNEMOUTH, CHRISTCHURCH AND POOLE COUNCIL
BCP Council Revolutionises Highways Maintenance with Alloy
“We were especially impressed by the flexibility Yotta’s Alloy software offered us. As it is cloud-based and runs as-a-service, we don’t have to worry about infrastructure and IT services costs, or the time and resource needed to run and manage the system on-site. At the same time, however, we can link all our data into it in order to achieve greater insight across our asset types.”
-Simon Legg, Street Scene Operations Manager, Borough of Poole Council
