Avoid pipe catastrophes, reduce large breaks and save customers money by prioritizing replacements through artificial intelligence and machine learning
We’re proud to offer access to the next generation of pipe replacement planning—cutting-edge pipe condition assessment technology that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to provide an inside look at your utility’s infrastructure.* Reduce the risk of catastrophic pipe failures, plan for pipe replacements, and identify lead service lines with support from Ferguson Waterworks.
Our experienced team is here to troubleshoot utility problems and recommend AI Water Infrastructure Solutions.

What is VODA.ai intuitive pipe service?
Proactively manage infrastructure maintenance with VODA.ai and our expert associates. In fact, with two services from the innovative utility management technology, VODA.ai, you can prioritize pipe replacements and identify potential lead service lines.
How does VDOA.AI technology identify water system leak detection?
When it comes to leak detection, we’ll work collaboratively and import relevant data. Then, we plug the data into our system, which uses machine learning to fill gaps and provide accurate results. You’ll receive detailed visual reports that help optimize pipe lifespan and detect major leaks before they happen.
How does VDOA.AI technology help detect lead pipes?
VODA.ai empowers you to submit your lead inventory—without visiting every lateral—using machine learning. Cut down on field visits, detect lead pipes early, and monitor your replacement goals with all the information you need at your fingertips.
Ferguson can help you gain confidence in your water utility planning by relying on machine learning and data to make informed decisions.

TDG for critical infrastructure
Transcend Design Generator (TDG) enables municipalities and capital planners to rapidly generate preliminary engineering designs for critical infrastructure, including the water and wastewater treatment and power sectors.
This intuitive, online generative design platform leverages machine learning, artificial intelligence, and the latest treatment plant and substation design best practices to quickly output 3D models, P&IDs, process flow diagrams, civil takeoffs, annual load and chemical costs, and more. Customized for project specifications and design criteria, TDG is valuable for both greenfield and renovation projects.
Within a few hours, TDG’s conceptual designs can help focus your resources, lower costs, and improve schedules. As a result, municipalities and capital planners can:
- Easily evaluate treatment technologies and design options for new and renovation projects.
- Narrow the project scope early so teams and design professionals can focus on detailed design and make strategic investment decisions.
- De-risk capital planning by evaluating long-term costs and risks associated with different design options, such as extreme weather, population growth, equipment selection, and power consumption.
- Improve CIP and budgetary estimates.
