Designing, assessing, and improving critical infrastructure to help our clients meet their customers’ needs
Well-performing utility infrastructure is a vital component in maintaining safe, healthy, and sustainable communities. Many of our nation’s communities face serious challenges with rehabilitating older infrastructure or building new infrastructure to provide citizens with access to clean drinking water or a reliable connection to the sewer system. Through traditional and advanced technologies, Brown and Caldwell’s full infrastructure offering includes new infrastructure design and construction services, as well as condition assessment, management, and rehabilitation/replacement of aging utility assets. Our experts bring decades of experience, lessons learned, and innovative approaches to each project to help our clients address their specific infrastructure needs.

Innovative LiDAR scanning helps utilities above and below
New ways to use laser technologies and 3D imaging for increased understanding
LiDAR (light detection and ranging) scans of utility infrastructure above and below ground produce realistic 3D models that can optimize operations and save time, money, plus benefit asset management, design, and construction. When leveraged correctly, these technologies can provide a wealth of information to inform asset management, design, and construction decisions and activities.
“Replacing and upgrading aging infrastructure is one of the most pressing issues faced by utilities. Through effective asset condition assessment and management programs, utilities are able to mitigate risk when making infrastructure renewal decisions for a secure and sustainable future.”
