Case Study: Harris County Precinct 2 boosts drainage maintenance and transparency with OpenGov

Harris County Precinct 2 expands drainage maintenance to 5 million linear feet with OpenGov

Harris County Precinct 2, a large local government entity in Texas, faced the challenge of running its extensive public works operations with outdated, paper-based systems. This archaic process hindered efficiency and transparency for its 1.3 million residents. To modernize, the precinct adopted OpenGov's Cartegraph software for public works management.

By implementing OpenGov's digital platform, the precinct transitioned to a system that provided real-time data and streamlined communication. This solution enabled the team to dramatically increase its drainage maintenance work from 300,000 linear feet per year to over 5 million linear feet. The results for OpenGov included vastly improved operational efficiency, better responsiveness to resident needs, and a new level of transparency for constituents.
