Overview

Overview

The City of Pittsburgh’s Department of Public Works partnered with Atlantis IT Group to modernize its operations after years of relying on fragmented systems, manual processes, and scattered data that limited efficiency and visibility across assets, inventory, and procurement. By implementing BM Cloud, a unified ERP platform, the city centralized its inventory, automated stock controls, integrated purchasing workflows, and enabled real-time reporting transforming public works from a reactive into a streamlined, data-driven, and accountable system that delivers measurable cost savings and improved service delivery.

The Challenge

The Challenge

As the City of Pittsburgh's Department of Public Works managed critical infrastructure and daily operations, its legacy ERP system could no longer keep pace with modern municipal demands. Manual workflows, limited visibility, and disconnected systems created inefficiencies that impacted service delivery across the city.

Unified ERP Deployment

BM Cloud was deployed to establish a single source of truth for all parts, materials, and supplies. Atlantis worked with DPW to clean and standardize item master data, removing duplicates, aligning categories, and linking suppliers.


Strategic Stock Level Management

The system set minimum and maximum stock levels for each item based on historical usage patterns and projected demand. This approach prevented shortages that caused work stoppages while avoiding excess stockpiles that tied up budget.

Automated Inventory Controls

Automated controls replaced guesswork with reliable processes. Minimum and maximum stock levels were set for each item based on historical usage patterns and projected demand. Whenever materials approached their reorder point, the system automatically triggered alerts, preventing shortages without tying up money in excessive stock.

Real-Time Reporting & Visibility

Month-end reconciliation, which once required manual effort, became largely automated. Supervisors could track deliveries in real-time, improving coordination between warehouses and field teams. Leadership could base budget decisions on real-time data instead of outdated estimates, with reporting cycles becoming 50% faster.
