ArcFM™ is a powerful extension of ESRI's ArcGIS® platform that provides a complete, enterprise utility solution specially for energy sector.

The ArcFM Solution allows utility businesses to make use of a single integrated environment to manage and map multiple assets, leveraging all the power of ArcGIS’s object-oriented system.

Lack of accurate and precise information availability at the work sites leads to more paper work and delayed response of operations. Electricity and Water GIS are exploring Field Technologies with complete GIS solutions to cater Kahramaa field crews.
