Purpose

Vehicle owners who procure traffic operations need a platform for data collection and analysis of their assets. The tools available on the market are full-scale EAM systems (SAP, Maximo) that are expensive and oversized relative to the owner’s needs. Without a dedicated tool, the owner becomes dependent on the operator’s system, and when operators change, history and oversight are lost. A7 manager is a lightweight tool for asset tracking, analysis and management in accordance with ISO 55000. It gives the vehicle owner data ownership and continuity regardless of the contracted operator, along with a standardised data model that enables comparisons across contracts, operators and fleets. The maintainer delivers data via a standardised import pipeline that validates vehicle/component identity, odometer readings, mounting rules and duplicates.

Scope

Technical stack

A Django REST backend over PostgreSQL, a React web application, a separate offline-first PWA for inspectors, and a separate PWA for reporting defects. Bulk data arrives through an Azure Data Factory pipeline. See Technical stack for details, and Environments for the production topology and how the development environment differs.
