City
Dynamic 3D analytics
All your predictive analytics in one immersive environment at system, zone, network and point-of-delivery level.
Data Sync
Our foundational technology and the key enabler for fast implementation and data reliability: next-gen, continuous , automated reconciling of time-dependent data feeds, as well as of all geo-locatable items.
Always on
If you drive by night, you probably keep your headlights always on, not just flash them occasionally. Managing a water system is no different. Baseform updates continuously and automatically.
Hydraulics at the core
Network behavior cannot be an afterthought – it determines service, response, capacity and performance. Baseform natively factors in full hydraulics, continuously.
End-to-end
Operational response, CIP planning, water loss efficiency, consumption and revenue management are all deeply intertwined. Optimizing jointly makes more sense and reaps the greater rewards.
use cases
Investment Planning
Maximizing the ROI of renewal planning
Impact quantification for CIP projects in the pipeline allowed this utility to prioritize resources and maximize the number of avoided breaks. The 2 projects at the top of the list are less than 30% of the total, yet will avoid 62% of predicted pipe breaks.
Water & Energy Losses
Factually making a difference in real loss control
85% of the real losses volume recovered by this utility is from events detected by the software. Tracking live monitoring data and detecting anomalous events enables faster response, finds more leaks, and automates the accrual of all the key water loss components.
Investment Planning
Predictive renewal halts deterioration
Planning CIP and renewal by optimizing street-size planning units using our AI-based predictive analytics, this Texas public utility is able to counter an average 3.6% / yr increase in breaks with a 15x investment efficiency, effectively halting deterioration.
Billing & Meter Management
Optimized meter changeout: lower losses and much faster payback
Using the software for meter changeout planning, the utility reached a return on investment that is 3x faster than prioritizing by meter age, with a greater reduction in apparent losses.
Monitor
Operational efficiency
Continuous tracking and reconciling of utility SCADA, GIS, billing, AMI and other pertinent data sources (pressure, water quality, etc.) to monitor existing system sectors to detect, quantify and qualify non-revenue water events and issues. It provides world-class, AI-powered event detection, with a streamlined event management workflow, and continuously accrues a Component Analysis for any period in all sectors.
Predict
Risk and asset analytics
Advanced AI-driven predictive model, taking in GIS and CMMS/work orders, Baseform Big Data and other data sources to predict asset failures and deterioration over time. It combines with expert CoF and Risk frameworks to optimize renewal planning, generating and assessing CIP projects based on pipe deterioration, breaks avoided, NRW reduction or BRE reduction, in order to quantify and achieve the highest ROI.
Billing
& Meter Management
A fully visual environment to manage meters, consumption, revenue, under-registration, and meter changeout. Given the meter database, available readings, water rates and changeout costs, Billing generates a prediction for the metering error and potential changeout payback of every customer meter. It guides the user in generating automated changeout plans, optimized by meter payback, performance, error, etc.
City
Dynamic 3D spatial+time analytics
This is where all data and results produced by the apps above become available under a single visual 3D environment – the ultimate kPI dashboard. Totally dynamic, it updates continuously as new data streams in or new results are computed. It provides all users – from the technicians who generate the analyses, to field crews or to top level executives – with a unified, updated view of the infrastructure and the service.
