Case Study: City of Blue Springs achieves streamlined management of parks, buildings and grounds with Brightly Software's Asset Essentials

City of Blue Springs Streamlines Management of Parks, Buildings and Grounds with Asset Essentials

The City of Blue Springs, Missouri—a fast-growing Kansas City suburb of about 60,000—relied on a 20-person Parks, Buildings and Grounds team to manage nearly 600 acres of parks and six municipal buildings. The department was repeatedly reactive, struggling to keep up with work orders and lacking the data needed to justify additional staffing or streamline operations.

After adopting Brightly’s Asset Essentials and completing focused training, Blue Springs consolidated work orders, work history and asset data into a single system. The software tracks labor, parts and materials, issues automated notifications and daily work plans, and delivers real-time visibility and reports that shifted the team to preventive maintenance, sped response times and provided the documented evidence needed for funding and manpower requests.
