Reducing the impact of PEI failures.
This article, the first of two special features from Inventures, identifies how the difference between potential and acceptable levels of primary engineering infrastructure (PEI) risk can appear prior to contract award and continue through the life of the project. The article also proposes a methodology to improve the design, ongoing operation and maintenance of engineering infrastructure, hence reducing the service impact of PEI failures.
