Regional News Daily: An App for Managing Cultural Heritage in the Basque Country

ASSETS: An App for Effective Asset Management in the Basque Country. With 260 buildings and 270 light vehicles to manage, overseeing the assets of the Basque Country Urban Community (CAPB) is a complex task. Iban Grossier, director of built heritage and general resources at the CAPB, acknowledged that using Excel spreadsheets was sufficient for a while. However, he quickly realized the need to find a more efficient software solution to simplify and optimize the work.

The Challenge of Wealth Management

Managing such a vast and diverse portfolio requires a methodical and well-structured approach. Excel, while powerful, has limitations when it comes to collaboration, real-time updates, and process automation. For an organization like CAPB, which must maintain, monitor, and manage multiple assets, it was imperative to find a solution capable of centralizing all information and improving operational efficiency.

Adoption of the Solution DAMAaaS

The solution to this challenge came in the form of the DAMAaaS platform, a NoCode solution that enables the creation of custom applications for business process management. By adopting DAMAaaS, CAPB was able to develop an application dedicated to managing its building inventory and general resources. This application offers an intuitive interface and advanced features that far exceed the capabilities of Excel spreadsheets.

Benefits of the New App

There are many benefits to this transition. First, centralizing data provides a clear and up-to-date overview of CAPB’s assets. In addition, automating certain tasks reduces human error and speeds up management processes. The new application also facilitates better collaboration among different departments, as each user has access to relevant information in real time.

Impact on Users' Daily Lives

Iban Grossier emphasizes that implementing this solution has significantly improved the teams’ day-to-day operations. The management of the 260 buildings and 270 vehicles is now more efficient and precise. Staff can easily schedule and track work orders, manage maintenance requests, and optimize resource utilization.
