Innovyze Releases InfoMaster Sewer Generation V3.0, Raising the Bar for Analytics-Driven Asset Management for Smart Network Operations
Latest Release of Leading GIS-Centric Asset Integrity Management and Capital Planning Solution Enables Faster, More Comprehensive Sewer System Analysis and is NASSCO PACP and MACP V6.0 Certified and WSA05 Compliant
Broomfield, Colorado, USA, May 21, 2013
Innovyze, a leading global innovator of business analytics software and technologies for smart wet infrastructure, today introducedInfoMaster Sewer Generation V3.0 with new and improved analysis and reporting applications. Advances include enhanced capital and operational planning; expanded data support for NASSCO PACP and MACP plus Australian conduit inspection reporting code WSA05; and automated asset renewal, rehabilitation and replacement processes.
The InfoMaster product suite gives utilities critical insight into all enterprise assets, their conditions and work processes, facilitating significantly better planning and control. It lets them use information and analytics in new ways to drive higher productivity and quality while managing costs and increasing operational flexibility. Available exclusively for the Esri (Redlands, CA) ArcGIS 10.x platform, V3.0 includes components to run on desktop, web, tablet, and smartphone environments. InfoMaster is NASSCO PACP and MACP V6.0 certified.
With its “out-of-the-box” approach to geospatial wet infrastructure asset management — a distinct point of differentiation from traditional enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions — InfoMaster revolutionizes business analytics and optimization (BAO) for water and wastewater utilities. While the typical enterprise software deployment requires a 12- to 18-month implementation cycle,InfoMaster can be deployed in just a day to a few weeks — giving small to medium sized utilities the first-ever opportunity to optimize network management at very low cost.
Where other ERP systems are focused on electronic records management, InfoMaster is built from the ground up to provide superior business analytics and modeling capabilities. It marks the first time utilities have been able to manage and control the flow of both data and water for better, faster and more accurate decision making. Because InfoMaster data can be organized by project, a single BAO package can be used by both the utility and its engineering consultants — providing enormous flexibility in managing data for multiple utilities.
With InfoMaster Sewer, a utility can manage its entire underground infrastructure directly from the Esri geodatabase to deliver unmatched engineering productivity and network performance. Because any analysis is only as strong as its underlying data,InfoMaster includes direct support for pipes, manholes, pump stations, closed circuit television (CCTV) inspections, manhole inspections, smoke testing, customer incidents, and other field activities. CCTV acceptance inspection of sewers is standard practice in the U.S. and Australia. The US National Association of Sewer Service Companies (NASSCO) PACP and MACP programs and the Conduit Inspection Reporting Code of Australia WSA05, published by the Australian Water Services Association, provide guidance to utilities in determining the acceptability of sewer defects and features. Data can be read directly from an enterprise geodatabase; imported or linked to third-party ERP systems; or entered directly through the desktop, Web, or companion smartphone or tablet applications.
InfoMaster Sewer V3.0 includes over 50 customer-driven enhancements, including new features and functionalities that deliver significantly improved capabilities and performance. They include a unified GIS interface for water and sewer networks; enhanced facility query with standard SQL support; expanded Decision Tree with significant speed improvement for large networks and additional parameter support; geometric task editing; new graphing, profile generation and reporting capabilities; and support of 64-bit servers. The new version also supports iPhone 5 and Internet Explorer 9.0, and allows users to edit GIS data directly using a mobile device and update it to a server.
InfoMaster Sewer analysis tools are unparalleled in the industry, giving utilities the ability to validate and then “slice and dice” virtually any piece of data. Armed with clean data, they can then use InfoMaster tools and wizards to move nimbly in optimizing operations. Among them are applications that can be used to establish a prioritized capital replacement plan based on sound condition assessment; reduce the number of “hotspot” cleaning activities by comparing current cleaning schedules to reported upstream blockage complaints; and overlay smoke testing defects reported in real time via an iPhone with Bing (Microsoft, Redmond, WA) aerial maps to facilitate identification of older houses with cross connections.
“With InfoMaster Sewer V3.0, we’ve enriched our long-standing tradition of listening to our customers and providing new features and enhancements that help them make better, more reliable and cost-effective capital and operational decisions, optimize their hydraulic infrastructure performance and results, and improve service quality,” said Paul F. Boulos, Ph.D., BCEEM, Hon.D.WRE, Dist.D.NE, F.ASCE, President, COO and Chief Technical Officer of Innovyze. “The new version combines ease of use with expansive customization and flexibility and rich presentation tools, allowing new users to learn fast and experienced users to quickly become more productive in handling previously painstaking and time-consuming tasks that produced less than optimal results. Our customers depend on the depth and breadth of InfoMaster to find the best, most innovative solutions to their business challenges. With our support, they can aim high and deliver — consistently.”
