POSITION VACANT:

DIRECTOR – ENTERPRISE GIS & ASSET MANAGEMENT

Karachi Water & Sewerage Corporation (KW&SC) is undertaking a comprehensive institutional reform and digital transformation program aimed at improving operational efficiency, service delivery, commercial performance, and data-driven decision making. As part of this transformation, KW&SC is strengthening its Enterprise Geographic Information System (GIS) to establish a reliable and standardized spatial inventory of its water and sewerage infrastructure and progressively integrate spatial information with asset management, operational, customer, metering, and other enterprise systems. Accordingly, KW&SC intends to recruit a qualified senior professional to lead the institutionalization of Enterprise GIS and establish as the Corporation’s authoritative spatial platform for infrastructure and network information.

Objective of the Assignment

The objective of the assignment is to lead the development, implementation, and institutionalization of KW&SC’s Enterprise GIS and Spatial Asset Management Framework, ensuring that accurate and continuously updated spatial information is available to support infrastructure planning, operations, maintenance, asset management, commercial functions, and management decision-making. The Director GIS position requires not only basic requisite GIS mapping experience but also thorough technical background knowledge of water sector infrastructure, integrated geo-spatial models development and demonstrated strategic water sector GIS mapping experience. The position shall also support the progressive integration of GIS with Enterprise Asset Management, SCADA/telemetry, hydraulic modelling, customer and billing systems, and other digital platforms and therefore necessary technical water sector infrastructure engineering background will be essential for technically qualifying for the advertised Director GIS position at KW&SC.

Responsibilities

The incumbent is expected to demonstrate detailed technical knowledge of translating the water sector geospatial datasets into the respective integrated geodatabase models representing standard distribution infrastructure, KW&SC structure network asset mapping experience and integration of SCADA/telemetry data streams into unified enterprise data model(s) using spatial data classes and online data accessibility and web page publication experience.

The incumbent shall be responsible for the following:

Develop and implement KW&SC’s Enterprise GIS strategy, architecture, standards, governance framework, and phased implementation roadmap, aligned with the Corporation’s operational, asset management, and digital transformation priorities.
Undertake a comprehensive review, consolidation, and assessment of existing GIS and as-built data available across KW&SC, including spatial datasets, network maps, engineering drawings, surveys, project records, and data developed under ongoing and completed projects.
Establish a centralized and authoritative GIS-based spatial asset registry, progressively harmonizing, standardizing, validating, geo-referencing, and migrating existing water and sewerage infrastructure data into a common enterprise data environment.
Identify critical data gaps, inaccuracies, and coverage deficiencies and develop a prioritized program for field verification, asset mapping, surveying, digitization, and data improvement.
Plan, mobilize, and manage internal and external resources for GIS implementation, including KW&SC personnel, field teams, consultants, survey firms, contractors, technology providers, and other specialized resources, ensuring effective coordination, quality control, and knowledge transfer.
Establish standard spatial asset classification, unique asset identification, attribute structures, network topology, metadata, spatial accuracy, and data quality standards for water and sewerage infrastructure.
Establish and enforce institutional procedures requiring as-built GIS data and prescribed asset information for all newly constructed, rehabilitated, upgraded, or decommissioned infrastructure, ensuring timely incorporation into the Enterprise GIS through formal project close-out and hand-over protocols.
Assess KW&SC’s GIS technology requirements and develop comprehensive technical architecture and specifications for enterprise GIS infrastructure, including software platforms, databases, servers/cloud infrastructure, field data collection solutions, equipment, imagery, cybersecurity, backup, and related technology requirements.
Lead and provide technical oversight for the procurement, implementation, configuration, testing, and commissioning of GIS technology infrastructure and associated services, in coordination with relevant KW&SC functions and in accordance with applicable procurement requirements.
Develop and institutionalize web GIS, mobile field applications, dashboards, and decision-support tools for engineering, operations, commercial, asset management, and management functions.
Lead the spatial integration of GIS with the proposed Enterprise Asset Management System (EAMS) and progressively coordinate integration with SCADA/telemetry, hydraulic models, WFM, customer billing systems, metering, complaint management, work management, and other relevant enterprise applications.
Support spatial mapping and linkage of consumers, service connections, meters, bulk supply points, and other relevant commercial information with the underlying water and sewerage infrastructure.
Develop and maintain spatial representation of District Metered Areas (DMAs), pressure and supply zones, sewerage catchments, and other operational network boundaries, supporting network planning and operational management.
Enable GIS-based network and spatial analytics, supporting network connectivity and tracing, valve isolation, affected-consumer identification, asset criticality, infrastructure planning, Non-Revenue Water (NRW), water balancing, leakage management, unauthorized consumption, and supply optimization.
Establish comprehensive GIS data governance and quality assurance arrangements, including data ownership, validation and approval workflows, access controls, version management, audit trails, cybersecurity requirements, and periodic data quality reviews.
Develop and implement an institutional capacity-building and knowledge-transfer program, including organization-level modeling, competency requirements, standard operating procedures, technical training, and on-the-job knowledge transfer to progressively develop sustainable in-house GIS capability within KW&SC.
Establish mechanisms to ensure that GIS is continuously maintained and updated as part of KW&SC’s routine business processes, rather than remaining dependent on individual projects, consultants, or periodic mapping exercises.
