Event detection is more effective when combined with pipe break prediction.
There is a world of difference when you have a list of quantified priorities to work from every morning – the same team gets so much more done.
Operations are at the heart of the utility, and Baseform's event detection and DMA management capabilities are a staple of our client's daily routine – enabling them to respond faster and more proactively to pipe breaks and other events and, through continuous component analysis, to streamline their priorities based on factual evidence. However, event detection gets into a whole more effective mode when the utility also deploys another area of the software, pipe failure prediction. Being able to derive predicted break rates for every pipe has a mainstream application in the context of optimized network renewal planning. It also provides the O&M division with a qualified landscape of pipes where to direct leak detection efforts, once an event is picked up by Baseform, or once a given sector is prioritized for detail work from component analysis. As many of our users frequently point out, "there is a world of difference when you have a list of quantified priorities to work from every morning – the same team gets so much more done".
