StakingiXp

Daffron developed StakingiXp to drive work order automation, creating front-end digital data sources for CIS, GIS, and other back-end systems. Stakers, using tablet PC’s or laptops, perform design work in the field or office, sketching directly on your system maps using ESRI ArcView within StakingiXp. Access to assembly units and drawings make design work fast and efficient, and GPS integration technology enables seamless GPS data acquisition. Once design is completed, downstream systems are automatically updated, completing a large portion of the back-office work order process.

StakingiXp enables utilities to decrease operating costs, increase productivity, improve customer service, and enhance communication of important work order information throughout the utility. Typical payback periods range from 8 to 18 months. Most importantly, it is easy to use!
