See Your Water Network More Clearly

CivilSense™ gives wastewater utilities a clear, prioritized view of where sewer risk is building across their collection system, from aging pipes and rising infiltration to capacity constraints and lift station wear. It turns fragmented monitoring, inspection, and asset data into the evidence utilities need to prevent failures, focus capital, and prove results to regulators, boards, and their communities.

U.S. wastewater utilities face a widening gap between aging infrastructure and the capital available to fix it. The 2025 ASCE infrastructure report card found that the large-project sewer renewal rate has fallen from 3% to 2% while collection-system failures have risen from 2 to 3.3 per 100 miles, a trend accelerating faster than most capital programs can keep pace with.

CivilSense closes that gap by connecting the full sewer risk workflow in one platform.

It analyzes historical asset, inspection, and operational data to identify where failure, blockage, infiltration, and capacity risk are most likely to occur. It helps utilities deploy targeted level and flow monitoring only where the risk and information value are highest, instead of spreading sensors and crews evenly across a network.

It detects the anomalies, surcharge conditions, and early warning signs that separate a manageable maintenance issue from an emergency response. And it gives utilities the reporting they need to defend capital decisions, document consent decree progress, and demonstrate proactive management to regulators, boards, and rate payers.

The result is a connected path from data to decision to verified outcome, not another dashboard utilities have to interpret on their own.

Benefits

• Reduce the frequency and severity of sanitary sewer overflows and basement backups by acting before conditions become emergencies
• Prioritize capital and crew time toward the assets and locations with the highest risk and consequence, instead of age-based or complaint-driven guesswork
• Extend the useful life of collection system assets by catching deterioration, infiltration, and capacity issues earlier
• Build a defensible, evidence-backed record for consent decrees, permit renewals, and board and rate case presentationse
• Get more coverage from existing staff and budget by focusing inspection, monitoring, and field work where it matters most
• Preserve and connect the utility's existing GIS, SCADA, CMMS, and inspection systems instead of replacing them

CivilSense Sewer Level Monitoring

CivilSense Sewer Level Monitoring gives utilities continuous, rapid-deploy visibility into surcharge, blockage, and wet-weather conditions across the collection system.

Instead of waiting for a complaint or an overflow to find out something is wrong, operations teams get early warning where risk is highest, so crews can respond before a manageable issue becomes an emergency, a basement backup, or a reportable event.

CivilSense Predictive Risk Analysis For Wastewater

CivilSense Predictive Risk Analysis for Wastewater turns asset, inspection, and operational history into a network-wide risk score for every pipe, manhole, and lift station.

Rather than relying on age or inspection schedules alone, engineering and asset-management teams see exactly where failure, infiltration, and overflow risk is building, so capital and rehabilitation dollars go to the assets that matter most.

CivilSense Capital Planning For Wastewater

CivilSense Capital Planning for Wastewater connects sewer risk intelligence directly to the utility's rehabilitation and replacement program, turning risk scores into a defensible, multi-year capital plan.

Utilities can compare funding scenarios, justify priorities to boards and regulators, and show exactly how each dollar reduces risk, rather than defending a plan built on age alone.

CivilSense Advanced Wastewater & Stormwater Monitoring Solution

CivilSense Advanced Wastewater & Stormwater Monitoring Solution gives utility leaders real-time visibility into sewer and stormwater network performance, helping them proactively manage capacity constraints, inflow and infiltration (I&I), blockages, sediment buildup, and overflow risks.

By combining continuous monitoring, predictive alerts, and integration with operational systems, utilities can reduce emergency response costs, improve regulatory compliance, optimize maintenance activities, and make more informed capital investment decisions.

The result is greater system resilience, improved operational efficiency, and better stewardship of infrastructure and public resources.
