The DeadSure Platform

Cloud-based street lighting and asset management — from database to field repair.

One platform for office and field teams

DeadSure is a mature, cloud-based system connecting council offices and contractor field teams. It runs on Android, iOS, and Windows tablets — giving engineers the tools they need onsite while giving managers real-time visibility from the office.

  • Cloud-hosted — no on-premise servers to maintain
  • Tablet-based surveying and fault logging
  • Real-time sync between field and office
  • Trusted by 20+ counties

Every lamp, column, and asset — geo-located and searchable

Maintain a comprehensive database of street lighting and municipal assets. Each asset is geo-located on an interactive map with nearly 1,000 standard data fields covering lamps, columns, brackets, CCTV, water meters, EV units, and more.

  • Interactive map-style asset view
  • Custom fields and picklists for any asset type
  • Connect lights to pillars and cable networks
  • Soft-delete and recover units when needed
  • Attach documents, photos, and certificates to assets
  • Full audit history of changes and work performed

Visual cable network mapping

DeadSure records and manages the cable infrastructure powering street lights and other electrical assets. Import existing cable networks from DWG files or create and edit networks using built-in graphical tools.

  • Upload existing cable networks in DWG format
  • Graphical cable editor for creating and modifying networks
  • Link cables to assets and repair history
  • Essential for cable repairs and civil engineering work

From fault report to assigned work

Faults reported by the public via DeadSureApp, or by engineers and council staff, become tickets with full asset context. Work is assigned to field teams, grouped into inspection rounds, and scheduled for electrical and structural inspections.

  • Public fault logging through DeadSureApp
  • Automatic ticket creation with geo-location
  • Periodic and inspection jobs with scheduling
  • Search job tickets from the map
  • Full ticket history and status tracking

  • DSMobile onsite logging on Android, iOS, and Windows
  • Customisable survey forms for field data capture
  • Parts and stock usage tied to each job
  • Automatic inventory updates from completed work
  • Photo and document attachments

Live visibility for councils and contractors

Track engineer and vehicle locations in real time. Councils get dashboards showing all contractor activity, asset status, and KPI metrics — with one-click approve, query, or reject on completed tasks. Patrol rounds and pass-by history prove which lights were visited, even when no fault was found.

  • Live engineer and vehicle tracking on the map
  • Patrol rounds for night scouts and inspections
  • Pass-by verification of lights visited
  • KPI metrics for contractor performance
  • Historical route and work analysis

Inventory and billing tied to every job

Integrated stock control tracks inventory in real time and links parts to repair jobs. Invoices generate from logged, approved work using schedules of rates — dramatically reducing paper trails and billing disputes.

  • Real-time inventory tracking
  • Schedules of rates for consistent pricing
  • Approve, query, reject, or invoice job tickets
  • Automated invoicing from approved work
  • Warranty and guarantee handling
