GIS/AMS Design and Implementation Engineer

• advise on the selection of the GIS software platform and the Asset Management System solution;
• define the asset data schema (fields for asset attributes, hierarchy of asset registry) in alignment with international best practices and IFRS accounting needs (since asset values and depreciation might be tracked);
• preparing the GIS/AMS field survey plan: determining what data must be collected by surveyors (coordinates, pipe diameters, materials, installation dates if known, etc.), and establishing quality standards for data;
• writing the technical requirements and evaluating technical proposals;
• verifying data quality, integrating partial data deliveries into the central GIS database, and generating preliminary maps to spot-check coverage;
• coordinate user acceptance testing of the GIS and AMS: for GIS, checking that network maps can be layered, queried, and updated easily; for AMS, checking that asset registers can be generated, work orders can be scheduled, and that it links properly to the maintenance planning and possibly to the financial system;
• configure initial asset management functionalities, such as preventive maintenance schedules or critical asset analysis, to demonstrate the system’s value;
• train staff on maintaining the GIS data and using the AMS for decision-making.

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, information technology (IT);
• Preferably, at least 10 years' experience in the design and implementation of GIS/AMS field inventories;
• Preference will be given to candidates with experience of MDB-funded projects (e.g. those financed by the ADB, AIIB, AFD, EBRD or World Bank).
