Benefits of Predictor
Objective: Gain an understanding of the benefits provided by Predictor.
Asset Performance Models have been developed and finessed by Local Governments for decades. Time and again experience on proven sites has shown that when models are robust and representative, outputs 'make sense'.
To achieve this, models have to be based on localized and pragmatic rules of prioritization, asset performance, and treatment optimization.
Predictor is an industry first tool originally developed from a Local Government perspective and further developed to be able to handle any asset class across many industries. Over 500 models have been successfully developed in Predictor through extensive site testing.
