Condition data your team can build on.

For engineering firms and program managers

Certified data, your standards.

IPI delivers certified, GIS-integrated condition assessment at the pace your program schedule needs. Your engineers stay in control of the recommendation. We make the evidence underneath it stronger.

The first layer

Condition intelligence

Rehabilitation design, CIP sequencing and funding applications are only as strong as the condition data beneath them. When assessment comes first, scope follows measured condition, and your recommendations are easier to defend to the client, the regulator and the funder.

IPI is built to be that first layer: inspection, coding and risk analysis delivered in a form your engineers can review, adopt or adjust.

How we work inside your program

A subcontractor that works the way your PMs do
  1. Pursuit support. Scope input, approach language and qualifications for your proposal.
  2. Mobilization. INREACH™ intake of the client's GIS, prior inspections and records, so field work targets the right assets from the start.
  3. Field program. EdgeAI mobile robotics with 360-degree imaging at six times traditional CCTV resolution, able to reach many access points that are difficult for truck-mounted equipment (subject to site conditions and permissions), with daily production reporting to your project manager.
  4. Quality and delivery. PACP, MACP and LACP certified coding, QA records and GIS layers in the schema you specify.
  5. After delivery. Imagery can be revisited later to answer new questions without sending crews back out.

FAQ

Common questions from engineering teams

How does IPI fit alongside our engineers?

IPI provides the condition assessment and prioritization analysis your team builds on. Your engineers review the data and make the final recommendation to the client.

What formats do you deliver?

NASSCO-coded data, 360-degree imagery in 2D and 3D, GIS layers aligned to your schema, and summary reports. We agree on formats at kickoff so data is usable on delivery.

Can we see a sample deliverable?

Yes. IPI can walk your team through a sample deliverable package, including coded inspection data, imagery, GIS layers and a summary report, along with how it was used on a comparable program. Ask during a teaming conversation.

Can you inspect hard-to-reach assets in easements or rough terrain?

Often, yes. Using EdgeAI's mobile robotics, IPI can reach many access points that are difficult for truck-mounted equipment, and the equipment is small enough to fit in airplane carry-on luggage. Actual access depends on site conditions and permissions, which we confirm during planning, so your scope isn't limited to the manholes a truck can reach.

Can you support a pursuit on short notice?

Yes. Tell us the client, scope and due date, and we'll turn around approach language and qualifications for your proposal.

What prequalification documents are available?

Insurance certificates, safety program documentation and references are available on request for supplier onboarding.

Where can you work?

Anywhere in the U.S. and its territories. IPI's largest current program is El Paso Water's 2,400-mile baseline assessment in Texas.
