Get ahead of pipeline failure in Georgia

Georgia’s water utility leaders are challenged with reducing over 80 billion gallons of NRW per year, costing north of $105m. But while the state’s infrastructure continues to age and the threat of drought looms large, the real challenge for water executives is to get enough space between dealing with reactive emergency repairs and the resource overhead of regulatory reporting; and getting ahead of pipeline failure in order to drive efficiencies and plan for the future. That’s why proactive network management is starting to gain pace among forward-thinking leaders who are supercharging the data they’re already generating for their regulator to predict the risk of potential failure and get ahead of repairs and upgrades before problems start.

Water Executives at Epcor, Toho Water, City of Eagan and many others are turning to precision geospatial AI to help them monitor buried assets and accurately determine the top 20% risks. This means they can predict and deal with breaks and water loss before they happen – and focus on upgrading precisely the highest risk sections of pipe. They’re cutting water loss by up to 55%, saving a third in repair costs, and justifying capital improvement and network expansion investment with new conviction. And they’re achieving upwards of a 1.5x RoI within as little as 6 months.

What People Say

“Rezatec’s technology provides a comprehensive view of our entire system and helps us to understand where our network is likely to fail. It’s the most logical, best first place to start. Then, following Rezatec’s assessment, we could use some of the more pinpointed definitive pipe condition detection technologies based within the areas showing a high likelihood of failure.”

– Rick Wahlen, Utilities Operations Manager, Eden Prairie

“I was proud to lead this project and bring AI/ML solutions to WaterOne in an effort to advance our asset management and infrastructure planning programs. Rezatec was the ideal vendor for this pilot program and I’m pleased to say it was a resounding success!”

Jason Beyer, GIS Lead, WaterOne

“Even before the Covid-19 outbreak occurred, it was essential to improve the productivity of the workforce and make the most of resources. Rezatec’s solution will help utilities better understand their buried assets, prioritise investment intelligently and improve results pushing the limits of the active DMA control towards the performance fixed by the authority”.

– Luca Scansetti, Water Utility Service Manager, ISOIL Industria
