Project description
When Lorenz Saurer assumed his role as the Building Administrator in 2016, the process for fixing problems with lights was not clearly regulated for public street lights, different service providers responsible for problems in different parts of the village. Residents reported problems with the lights by phone – often with several reports for the same problem. Often the building authority was only able to determine the precise location after dark.
Lorenz Saurer quickly realised there was only one solution: one partner with a modern tool instead of several service providers. So the municipality concluded an operation and maintenance agreement with BKW Power Grid, which had already been modifying and expanding the lighting network in Hilterfingen for years. Hilterfingen was also the pilot municipality for “luxBKW”, the modern online tool for data, maintenance and problem management.
Digital overview of more than 400 lights
All lights in the Hilterfingen lighting system were entered as digital master data in “luxBKW”. This gives Lorenz Saurer an overview of all relevant data at all times. This includes the status of the lights and any maintenance measures, problem and defect reports, lamp technology, age structure and system data. The information available on luxBKW also helps the municipality to comply with legal documentation and maintenance obligations.
