What you will learn
- Why inspection-only and age-based replacement plans leave money on the table, and what a defensible plan looks like instead.
- How Fracta scores every pipe segment for likelihood of failure (LOF), cost of failure (COF) and total risk, and why consequence changes the order of work.
- What the top 5 risk drivers tell you about a specific pipe, so the model is not a black box.
- How utilities such as Topeka, Guntersville and West Slope turned risk scores into capital plans, including 65% of actual failures caught in the first risk tier.
- What the platform looks like day to day: filters, scenarios, reports and exports to CSV, shapefile and your GIS.
