Description
The Sewerage and Water Board of New Orleans (SWBNO) is seeking information from qualified vendors, manufacturers, consultants, research institutions, and technology providers regarding current and emerging technologies for detection, prediction, and condition assessment of water mains. The goal is to evaluate technology solutions that can assist in identifying existing leaks, predicting future failures, monitoring structural conditions, managing pressure transients within the network, and repairing or replacing water pipelines.
Some key points to consider include:
• The SWBNO manages a large and aging water distribution network with significant operational, environmental, and community impacts when failures occur.
• The network includes 1,600 miles of drinking water piping, with 34% of the mains being over 100 years old.
• The SWBNO is seeking information on technologies, tools, methodologies, and services for assessment, repair, and replacement of water pipelines.
• Respondents are asked to provide information on their company, technology description, deployment requirements, data deliverables, and case studies.
• The SWBNO is looking for solutions that can provide accurate and reliable data, as well as cost-effective and efficient deployment scenarios.
