GapSync — Edo State Infrastructure Coordination & Protection

The coordination gap

Excavators, approvers and asset owners have never shared one operational picture.

The result is predictable: cut fibre, lost revenue, slow restoration and liability disputes that never resolve. GapSync closes the gap — shifting infrastructure from reactive repair to proactive prevention, and generating the data governments need to plan, price and enforce.

One platform, twenty modules

Everything Edo State's dig-once regime needs.

Digital permitting

A guided wizard captures geometry, depth, dates, road and documents — with configurable, role-scoped approval workflows and printable, QR-verifiable permits.

Spatial conflict engine

Every submission is checked in seconds against every registered underground asset with metre-accurate PostGIS proximity, overlap, protected-zone, moratorium and depth analysis.

Omnichannel alerts

Affected owners are reached before ground is broken — Email, SMS, WhatsApp and web push with delivery proof, retries and the exact distance to their asset.

Acknowledgement SLAs

Operators respond on a tracked clock with escalation. Government sees a live coordination board so no alert is ever silently ignored.

Incidents & enforcement

Capture cuts with geotagged evidence, drive restoration and RCA, and run violations, penalties, stop-work orders and disputes on one auditable rail.

Public transparency

A no-login portal shows current works, verifies any permit by number or QR, publishes open data and lets the public report suspicious excavation.

The conflict engine

See every asset before you break ground.

Powered by PostGIS on the exact geometry of every registered asset — never a guess.

Metre-accurate proximity against fibre, ducts, power, gas, water and drainage, per configurable class buffers.
Overlap, protected-zone, moratorium and depth checks with a severity matrix and rerun-on-change.
Confidentiality-aware — the map shows only what a viewer is entitled to see, while the engine always uses exact geometry.
Critical conflicts block issuance outright; high conflicts require a recorded, audited waiver.

How it works

From application to safe dig in four steps.

Apply

A contractor registers the excavation with its route, depth and dates in a guided wizard.

Auto-check

GapSync runs the conflict engine against every nearby asset and scores the risk within 60 seconds.

Notify

Every affected owner is alerted across their preferred channels with the exact distance to their asset.

Dig safely

Owners acknowledge, protection is agreed, the permit issues — and every action is hash-chain audited.

Built for everyone at the table

One governed picture for every stakeholder.

Role-based access with row-level data scoping means each organisation sees exactly what it should — no more, no less.

State-wide oversight

Regulator

A single coordination picture, arbitration, enforcement and forensic audit across every agency and operator.

Ministry & LGA

Agencies

Approve roadworks with jurisdiction scoping, moratoria and configurable workflow steps.

Telecom & utility

Operators

Protect your network — get alerted before any dig near your assets and clear conflicts fast.

Applicants

Contractors

Permit once, dig with confidence, and prove compliance with QR-verifiable permits.

Open by design

Public transparency, no login required.

Accountability is built in — anyone can see what is happening beneath their streets.
