Risk-Informed Asset Strategy & Utility Vegetation Management
Connect field conditions, inspection programs, and work execution to the drivers of wildfire risk.
WHAT WE DO
FEP helps utilities move from broad compliance activities to risk-informed asset and vegetation programs. Our teams combine utility operations, engineering, vegetation management, data analysis, and field verification to improve how work is scoped, prioritized, performed, and measured.
SERVICES
Support tailored to the decision at hand
01 Asset inventory, condition, and inspection program assessment
02 Failure-mode and ignition-driver analysis
03 Utility Vegetation Management (UVM) program evaluation program design
04 Tree risk and fuel management strategies and fuel-management strategies
05 Inspection cadence, treatment optimization, and contractor strategy
06 Field validation, QA/QC frameworks, standards, and procedures
WHAT THIS ENABLES
Work aligned to the highest-risk conditions
Stronger field consistency and quality controls
Better linkage between program activity, reliability, and risk reduction
FEP PERSPECTIVE
Move from cycles and counts to risk reduction
Inspection and vegetation programs are most valuable when field activity is connected to the conditions that drive outages, ignitions, and fire spread. FEP helps utilities combine asset health, vegetation condition, species, mortality, weather stressors, terrain, access, and treatment history into practical work-planning and quality-control decisions.
01 Asset condition and failure-mode assessment
02 Grow-in, fall-in, mortality, and fuel-risk strategies
03 GIS, LiDAR, remote sensing, and field observations
04 Standards, contractor oversight, QA/QC, and performance measures
