About Us
With limited funding and rising construction costs, agencies and organizations around the Country face many challenges of maintaining infrastructure assets with limited funding. AMS was founded on the mission of helping agencies manage infrastructure assets cost-effectively through asset management. Since our inception in 2006, this practice was not very common for above-ground assets and we found that data collection inventories were inconsistent, expensive, and at times not very safe. AMS became a leader in advancing data collection by using state-of-the-art sensors such as lasers and high-definition cameras. With our talented engineers we were able to innovate systems to improve the quality of our data.
With the rapid technology change in mobile mapping, AMS had acquired mobile mapping systems that aligned with our work-flow. We partnered up with some of the best companies that manufacture surveying equipment and laser scanner technologies in the industry. We are constantly innovating on our spare time and have developed AI technologies that have helped us with quality assurance and quality control. Our AI systems help us inventory and assess assets. We currently have an AI system that we use for making sure distress types and severities are being captured.
We are passionate in what we do and we get excited when we get to help our clients save money using state-of-the-art technology.
