Asset register
Routes, segments and roadside assets in one structured register.
Infrastructure
Road asset management software, by route and segment
Mintema is road and highway asset management software. Record routes and segments with their condition, and every sign, barrier, light and gully along them, so inspections, defects and repairs are tied to a place.
The challenge
A road is only as good as its worst segment, and the worst segment is rarely the one in the report.
Pavement, signs, barriers, lights and drainage are managed by different crews and contracts. When they sit in separate lists, one network average hides the stretch that needs the money.

What the operation requires
- Routes and segments by chainage
- Condition per segment
- Inspection types per asset class
- Contractor scope per region
- GIS position for every asset
- Budget by condition and risk

How roads and highway assets is configured, step by step
Every part below is configured in the platform without code: the asset type, its structure, the inspection form and scoring, the work, the sensors and the dashboards. Click a step, or let it play.
Step 1 of 6
Asset type: Road segment
A designed type for segments and one per roadside asset class: sign, barrier, light column, gully.
- Sector
- Infrastructure
- Built with
- No-Code Studio
- Numbering
- Automatic, per type
Typical fields
- Route and chainage
- Surface type
- Lanes
- Traffic class
- Install date
- Material
Step 2 of 6
Break it down to components
Routes split into segments; each segment carries its roadside assets as related assets.
- Depth
- Unlimited
- Templates
- One click per model
- Condition
- Per component
Typical levels
- Route
- Segments
- Signs
- Barriers
- Light columns
- Gullies
Step 3 of 6
Road condition survey
Surface defects, ride quality and roadside asset checks per segment, with photos and GPS.
- Scoring
- Rating scale 1-5 per segment
- Approval
- Multi-stage, e-signature
- On approval
- Condition updated
Form blocks
- Rating scale
- Defects
- Measurements
- Photos
- Checklist
Step 4 of 6
Work that follows the finding
Potholes become reactive orders; resurfacing runs as capital work by segment against a BOQ.
- Workflow
- Stage-driven, per type
- Crew
- Recommended by skill
- Cost
- Posted to the asset
Work order types
- Reactive repair
- Preventive (gully cleaning)
- Resurfacing (CAPEX)
- Emergency
Step 5 of 6
Live data and automation
Smart light controllers and weather stations report status and readings.
- Ingestion
- HTTPS JSON or MQTT
- Example rule
- Lamp offline > 24 h → notify lighting contractor
- Response
- Notify, email, broadcast
Typical readings
- Lamp status
- Energy use
- Road temperature
- Rainfall

- Budget utilisation
Illustrative configuration on sample data. Your fields, forms, scales and workflows are designed with your team.
What you use
The modules behind this use case
One platform and one data model, so the inspection, the work order, the spare part, the sensor and the dashboard all refer to the same asset.
GIS
The whole network on the map, coloured by condition.
Inspections
Condition surveys per segment and checks per asset class.
Work orders
Reactive and planned work by segment, contractors scoped to their regions.
Supply chain
Signs, lamps and barrier parts in field stores.
Dashboards
Network condition, backlog and budget execution.
Business value
What it is worth to the organisation
The value is measured in fewer failures, less wasted effort, lower risk and better use of budget.
How it usually works
With Mintema
01Network
One line per road in a spreadsheet.
Routes, segments and every roadside asset.
02Condition
An average for the whole route.
Condition per segment, on the map.
03Contractors
Monthly paper reports.
Work orders with photos and timestamps.
04Programme
Based on complaints.
Ranked by condition, traffic and risk.
FAQ
Roads & highway assets, answered
Have a question that is specific to your organisation? A solution engineer will answer it against your own assets, processes and data.
Road asset management software records the road network as routes and segments, together with the signs, barriers, lights and drainage along them, and links condition surveys, defects, repairs and budgets to each location.
Yes. Routes and segments are part of the asset model, and roadside assets are linked to their segment.
Yes. Signs, barriers, light columns, gullies or any other class are designed in the No-Code Studio with their own fields.
Yes. Contractor users are scoped to their regions and permissions, and every job records their evidence.
Yes. The GIS Explorer shows every asset with coordinates, coloured by status, condition or health.
Condition surveys are scored per segment on your own scale. Approved results update the segment and feed the maintenance and resurfacing plan, so budgets follow measured condition.
Yes. Defects can be raised from the field or from a request channel with photos and a location, then routed to the right crew and tracked until closed.
