City Administration: City of Meriden

In order to remain compliant on DOT-funded municipality projects, the public works department in the City of Meriden used a paper-based Four Volume method that often led to time-consuming project slowdowns. In order to streamline this process, Director of Public Works Howard Weissberg, P.E., and his team vetted a number of software solutions and landed on Appia for construction administration and inspection. As a result, the City of Meriden experienced improved project management, data reporting, cost savings, and a 75% increase in inspector field time.
