comprehensive utility services, locating, mapping, and coordination
Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) combines advanced techniques from civil engineering (ASCE 38), surveying, and geophysics to deliver a robust solution for underground utility detection and mapping. This vital service not only provides reliable data on underground utilities, reducing project costs by preventing utility conflicts and unnecessary redesigns but also adds a layer of quality control that manages client risks and prepares sites more effectively before construction begins. Ideal for projects in transportation, aviation, utilities, telecommunications, and oil & gas, SUE is invaluable for enhancing site preparation and boosting overall project efficiency.
