Case Study: Gestion Réseaux Sibelga achieves unified asset management and improved operational efficiency for Brussels' gas & electric distribution with Hexagon's Safety, Infrastructure & Geospatial Division

Gestion Réseaux Sibelga - Customer Case Study

Gestion Réseaux Sibelga, the sole gas and electricity distribution network for the Brussels region serving 1.8 million people, faced an obsolete GIS, ended vendor support, rising software update costs, fragmented GIS and dispatch tools, and the need for a full asset life‑cycle management solution. To modernize its systems, Sibelga selected Hexagon's Safety, Infrastructure & Geospatial Division and its advanced utility GIS software (deployed at Sibelga as “ATLAS”) to consolidate and standardize network data and workflows.

Hexagon's Safety, Infrastructure & Geospatial Division implemented ATLAS as a unified, company‑wide GIS used across operations, dispatching, asset management and IT, integrating graphical and alphanumeric asset data in a single database. The solution improved data quality and timeliness, reduced maintenance costs and IT complexity, streamlined field processes for greater operational efficiency, and provided a stable technical environment—enabling Sibelga to extend the system for optical‑fiber management and future real‑time outage capabilities.
