THE CLIENT

A joint authority managing a massive shared asset.

The Southern California Joint Pole Committee (SCJPC) coordinates utility pole ownership and cost-sharing across Southern California, a high-stakes operation that depends on accurate records, seamless data access, and meticulous monthly billing.
THE CHALLENGE

Aging systems, growing data, limited access.

Outdated systems and manual processes meant joint pole data exports could take up to 16 hours. Data accessibility was poor, updates risked data integrity, systems were fragmented, and search/export tools were effectively nonexistent.

A fully modernized data management ecosystem.

Accurate Digital Solutions delivered a scalable solution tailored to SCJPC’s exact needs, spanning automation, integration, and usability.
