Since 2009, we've inspected over 10 million feet of municipal infrastructure with a perfect safety record: zero incidents, zero defects, zero claims. On one of the largest municipal inspection projects in the country, a 2,400-mile baseline assessment for El Paso Water, IPI is compressing a 10-year timeline to 6 years while achieving 63% higher daily production than industry standard. The inspection is just the starting point. What makes IPI different is what comes after: risk-based prioritization that tells you what needs attention first, compliance-grade documentation that satisfies regulatory requirements, and deliverables formatted to support your SRF application or capital improvement plan.   [Why utilities choose IPI](https://www.ipi-pipe.com/why-choose-us?hsLang=en) ### Only with IPI ![360-degree pipe imaging icon](https://www.ipi-pipe.com/hubfs/360-degrees.svg) #### Acquisition Through IPI's exclusive partnership with Edge AI, portable AI-enabled robots reach the blind spots and hard-to-reach easements that truck-mounted CCTV can't, capturing a 360-degree view of the entire pipe surface at 6x traditional CCTV resolution. Field operators launch the robot and monitor its progress as it scans the full length of the pipe. ![Inspection data processing icon](https://www.ipi-pipe.com/hubfs/data-processing.svg) #### Processing IPI transforms raw inspection data into asset-ready intelligence, leveraging Fulcrum tracking, EdgeAI cloud coding, and ultra-clear CUES MSI imaging for the most comprehensive evaluations in the industry. All reports are coded by a trained PACP certified professional. ![2D and 3D pipe image presentation icon](https://www.ipi-pipe.com/hubfs/image.svg) #### Presentation Deliverables are presented to customers in multiple formats. They are presented in both 2D and 3D, and can be viewed as a complete pipe image and as a flattened image. This allows for viewing as single still images or a series of images viewed as the live feed. Images do not lose their high-resolution clarity. Reports can be revisited at future dates and manipulated in order to show new variables, give more comprehensive details, and answer questions/concerns not part of the original scope of the project. ![GIS-based rehabilitation planning icon](https://www.ipi-pipe.com/hubfs/planning.svg) #### Planning IPI integrates the data acquisition results with GIS and work order software. GIS mapping can show a pattern of defects in multiple asset systems. This allows teams to propose maintenance and rehabilitation projects on a schedule that is efficient while addressing more than one asset system at the same time.
