Testimonials

Brighton and Hove City Council have been working with XAIS-PTS since 2023. We started with commissioning a Annual Engineers Inspection (AEI). We are a small team and therefore using the treatment lengths provided within the AEI surveys has really helped us to streamline our processes and reduce the time between collecting condition data and generating our forward works programme. XAIS-PTS also provided detailed projection modelling for our roads and footways.

We are now taking this a stage further and have commissioned XAIS-PTS to support the detailed design of our forwards works programme. This is something that would not have been possible on our own due to the size of our team. XAIS-PTS are always on hand to offer advice and to be a sounding board and I honestly don’t know what we would do without them!

Stacey Hollingworth

Highway Strategic Asset Manager - Brighton & Hove City Council

“I am thrilled to share our positive experience working with XAIS-PTS. Liverpool City Council has embarked on an incredible four-year journey with XAIS-PTS to enhance our asset management data and strengthen our community engagement. Our collaboration began by closely examining the asset management process, which laid a solid foundation for our ambitious goals.

With the invaluable support of XAIS-PTS, we undertook comprehensive training for our entire team, spanning from technicians to senior leadership. This training has been instrumental in embedding the core principles and practices we aimed to achieve throughout this journey. The emphasis has always been on involving everyone, ensuring a holistic and inclusive approach to our asset management strategy. We look forward to continuing our partnership across surveys, software and consultancy with XAIS-PTS and further advancing our mission to serve our community more effectively."

Working openly and collaboratively on all National Highways projects they are continually striving to improve. Their ability to deliver consistently at such a high level should be recognised and I would have no reservations in recommending XAIS-PTS.

XAIS-PTS have provided the SCRIM, GripTester, Deflectograph and SCANNER on our contract for the past 10 years. During this time both the level of service and condition data we have received from XAIS-PTS has been of a high quality as well as being provided in a prompt and efficient manner. XAIS-PTS have always been willing and able to provide additional services when requested.
