Operational Impact
The predictive modeling has resulted in a tenfold increase in the precision of identifying maintenance holes most at risk of flooding and causing a pollution incident. | |
The company is now able to prioritize these utility holes for preemptive maintenance. | |
The maintenance of 2,000 utility holes is expected to prevent about 120 pollution incidents over a two-year period. | |
Quantitative Benefit
Financial benefits, realized through a reduction in regulatory fines, are estimated to be USD4.7 million per year. | |
The solution has resulted in a one-third reduction in regulatory fines. | |
