Asset Maintenance
Asset Maintenance
LSPS Solutions offers a wide variety of asset maintenance activities to help you adequately maintain your existing infrastructure. We perform fire hydrant restoration, manhole inspections, mobile sandblasting and painting, smoke testing and valve exercising to help utilities keep their good infrastructure operating properly so that they can focus their limited budgets on replacement of their old, out-of-life-cycle assets.
The best way to collect and record valve and valve exercising data involves collecting GPS coordinates along with any pertinent data on the valves and then geo-spatially tying the information to the valve using GPS data.
LSPS Solutions, LLC uses automatic valve operating equipment and electronic data capturing devices to capture and record the results of all valve exercising activities so that the information can be used properly recorded.
Typically, as much as 30% of infiltration problems can be attributed to faulty manholes. The primary purpose of inspecting the manhole is to find and identify issues before they become hazardous. The best way to get a general inventory of the manholes in a collection system involves inspecting and photographing manholes and then geo-spatially tying the images and inspection to the manhole using GPS data.
LSPS Solutions, LLC uses pole-mounted manhole inspection cameras and electronic data capturing devices to inspect and record the results of all manhole inspections so that the information can be used for design, flow modeling, and infiltration and inflow studies.
The best way to collect and record smoke testing data involves collecting GPS coordinates and photographs of the problem areas and then geo-spatially tying the information to the pipe segment or manhole using GPS data.
LSPS Solutions, LLC uses electronic data capturing devices to capture and record the results of all smoke testing activities so that the information can be used for infiltration and inflow studies.

“LSPS Solutions has provided multiple services for the City of Victoria. One of the first projects involved completing the City’s Risk and Resiliency Plan for the City’s water system. The plan not only gives the City a synopsis of current operations, but also provides a tool in which we can develop emergency planning. They have also completed an electronic operations and maintenance manual for the City’s Odem Street Wastewater Plant. The City has plans to move forward with LSPS Solutions for the remaining O&M manuals at the Surface Water Treatment Plant and other wastewater facilities. With eO&M manuals, the City can move forward with the next step, being a comprehensive maintenance/replacement schedule for all the major water and wastewater facilities.”
