Latest Releases

IDS provide solutions to maintain, plan and protect asset networks. Although modelling of roading and water asset performance lies at the heart of our services, there is so much more that we offer.

Here are some of our latest and upcoming technical and reporting developments:

IDS dashboard for pavement and water modelling (via dTIMS software and other external data sources) -Available now

This innovative online dashboard helps communicate your investment story in an executive format. The reporting brings powerful modelling outcomes and forecasts into perspective. Through this interface, anyone from council regardless of their position can access the reports which are presented in a graphical and understandable format.

New gravel roading model - Available now

Often there’s little evidence to substantiate investment into unsealed roads, yet it’s an important part of the New Zealand Road network and managing ratepayer expectations of their maintenance is paramount. Our Unsealed Road Model has been developed to optimise your blading and gravel replacement programme and provide evidence for your business asset management plan in unsealed roads.

Newly developed wastewater and stormwater model – Available now for testing and customisation

Footpath model via dTIMS - Available soon

Many authorities are now starting to collect detailed footpath condition data. The IDS
footpath models can store this data and apply fairly simple algorithms to assist in the planning
forward works and investment needs for this important council asset.
