What the platform will support

How enterprise asset management works for councils
Enterprise asset management software gives an organisation a single system to record and manage the physical assets it owns. For a council, that typically means items such as roads, buildings, parks and drainage.
Such systems generally keep a register of each asset, forecast when assets may need renewal, and schedule maintenance and works. Linking those functions to financial management helps teams plan spending alongside day-to-day operations.
For investors, the relevance lies in the nature of the customer. Councils hold long-lived infrastructure, so they generally need systems that operate over multiple years. This is consistent with Asset Vision’s stated strategy of building long-term customer relationships.
The council’s long-lived infrastructure fits the recurring revenue model that underpinned Asset Vision’s FY26 ARR growth of 46%, alongside 110% net revenue retention and a falling share of revenue from its top three customers.
Strengthening Asset Vision’s position in local government
The company said the award strengthens its position in local government. It also said the contract supports its strategy of building long-term customer relationships through a platform that connects asset planning with everyday operational delivery.
The Whittlesea award follows other recent contract wins across Transport, Civic and Community, and Social Infrastructure, including a deal covering 150,000 NSW social housing dwellings that opened a new vertical for the company.
