When it comes to urban safety and infrastructure, visibility is everything—and not just on the street level.
To support the City of Atlanta’s “Light Up the Night” initiative, Georgia Power is working to make neighborhoods safer by reducing crime and traffic accidents through smarter, more efficient lighting. However, coordinating a multi-year project across large institutions and dozens of stakeholders created a classic logistical hurdle: critical data was buried in disconnected spreadsheets, slide decks, and email threads.
The Georgia Power team adopted Metaimpact, a single, secure, real‑time communications platform. By moving away from static tools, Georgia Power and the City of Atlanta were able to align their efforts and gain a clear, shared view of the project’s progress.
The results have transformed how these two organizations collaborate:
• Reporting time was slashed from hours to mere minutes through live dashboards and automated reporting.
• Real-time transparency now allows utility executives and city leaders to see infrastructure updates for specific neighborhoods as they happen.
• Stakeholder relationships are stronger thanks to shared context, visibility, and mutual accountability.
The success of this model in Atlanta has created a blueprint for the rest of the state. This collaborative framework is now expanding to Savannah, Augusta, Macon, and beyond, proving that with the right digital infrastructure, complex municipal projects can scale with ease.
In our latest case study, see how Metaimpact is powering Georgia Power’s operations to deliver safer, smarter lighting across the state:
• Fragmented data from different agencies is now unified in one searchable interface
• Manual reporting is a thing of the past, replaced by live, automated dashboards
• A scalable model is now in place to replicate this success in other municipalities
