Transforming Infrastructure with Advanced Utility Data
Increasing costs on materials and components, rising overheads, compressed timelines, and higher competition for bids—the construction industry has little room for error when it comes to maintaining owner cost-benefit and contractor profitability. Any source of uncertainty must be assessed, quantified, and mitigated to ensure successful outcomes. So why does the number one risk factor for transportation construction projects often go unacknowledged?

Texas Utility Environmental Risk Report
Underground utility infrastructure plays a critical role in Texas’s environmental and public health efforts. Yet, despite its scale, spanning more than 1.4 million miles statewide, much of this infrastructure remains unmapped or poorly documented. This lack of visibility and incomplete asset management creates challenges for environmental risk management and compliance with evolving regulations. This is especially relevant in the case of utility lines made from high-risk materials that may be prone to failure and corrosion, or harmful to human and ecological health.
