Decision intelligence
The questions the scope should answer.
A technically useful appointment starts with the decision, evidence and acceptance route—not with a generic list of activities.
What evidence already exists and what investigation can realistically be performed?
What decision follows the assessment: continue, repair, monitor, strengthen or investigate further?
Decision lensConvert condition evidence into an engineering basis for continued use, intervention, monitoring or further investigation.
Useful client inputs
Evidence that helps establish the technical basis.
- 01
Asset history, drawings, prior assessments, maintenance information and modification records
- 02
Observed condition, defects, performance concerns, photographs and available test / monitoring data
- 03
Access constraints, operating conditions, required confidence level and decision / intervention timing
