The Real Problem

What's Draining Your Public Works Budget Right Now

Most municipalities still rely on spreadsheets, paper logs, and reactive "fix-it-when-it-breaks" approaches. The hidden cost is massive.

01

Untracked Asset Decay

Without lifecycle visibility, assets fail without warning — triggering emergency repairs that cost 3–5x more than planned maintenance.

02

Disconnected Field Teams

Field workers without mobile access lose hours daily to back-and-forth at the office. That's time taxpayers are paying for — wasted.

03

Zero Citizen Visibility

Citizens submit requests and hear nothing. Satisfaction drops. Council complaints rise. Your team isn't failing — your tools are.

04

Compliance Blind Spots

Manually tracking regulatory requirements across hundreds of assets creates audit risk and potential liability for your department.

Teams switching to OXmaint report eliminating reactive emergency spend by up to 50% within the first year — see how on your own data.
Municipalities lose 20–40% of their maintenance budget to untracked assets and reactive repairs every year.
