35 PubWorks Testimonials

"PubWorks has been a lifesaver for me. When I started my job at Stillwater County we were in the middle of a big flood FEMA event. Our guys had been doing emergency repair work on a lot of county roads. If not for the ease of data entry and the support from PubWorks I don’t know what I would have done. My FEMA liaison was extremely impressed by the reports that are generated at the push of a button."

“I am able to quickly plug the FEMA equipment cost codes into PubWorks, generate the estimate of damages, summarize all the costs involved with the disaster as well as attach photos to a project. This eases the FEMA reimbursement process.”

“We selected PubWorks because it is easy to use, they understand our business needs, and PubWorks is cost effective.”

“PubWorks is easy to learn, easy to use and the reports are wonderful. Our commissioners are much happier with our reporting ability.”

"As you know we had a Bridge State Audit which required the detail report for bridge work in PubWorks. We got a huge compliment being the only county so far out of a dozen or so that had specific detail (TASKS) for individual bridges (LOCATION FEATURE). I told them that was credited to PubWorks to enable us to track the extra detail. Thanks for all you do."

“During Sandy, we entered all the individuals and equipment we were using, along with the FEMA scheduled rates, Once that was in, each day as they went out to do work in the city, collecting debris or whatever, we’d track the trucks and equipment as it went out. We did that on a daily basis.”

"PubWorks allows us to be completely transparent and accountable to the taxpayers of Edgar County, because we can justify, demonstrate and illustrate everything we’re doing, where we’re going and how the dollars are being spent."

“During Sandy, we entered all the individuals and equipment we were using, along with the FEMA scheduled rates, Once that was in, each day as they went out to do work in the city, collecting debris or whatever, we’d track the trucks and equipment as it went out. We did that on a daily basis.”

“The biggest obstacle for us is making the transition from our older system, I’m excited to see where we will be in another six months.”

"Our work crew manager tells us what the project is for the day. Our workers only have to tell us where they were, what equipment they are in, and what they are doing. We made it real simple for them."

“PubWorks broke down each task that was done during the disaster, and then our FEMA reps chose which of those tasks could be reimbursed, Before (PubWorks) that would have been really difficult, if they’d even have been able to do it.”

“At the end of each day, the crew foreman gives us a job report for his entire crew: what they did, equipment used, materials used, anything like that. So we enter it by the whole crew, not separated by employee. It’s faster that way.”

“It’s just a very cost-effective way of tracking our resources, It makes the data entry very easy and quick.”

"PubWorks is one of the greatest tools we purchased for Road & Bridge. Because of our cost accounting capabilities in PubWorks, we are able to pinpoint and keep better track of our actual costs."

“Is that stop sign getting hit all the time? Maybe we need to move it, Do we need a guardrail on that road? If we’re seeing a lot of accidents in a certain place, then maybe we ought to cut down a few trees there for sight distance.”
