Council doesn't reject CIP submissions for budget reasons. They reject them for lack of evidence. A transmission main failure visible in pressure data for two years costs $4.2 million in emergency repairs — because nothing connected that data to a capital decision. Oxmaint turns maintenance records into FCI-backed, council-approved capital plans. Book a demo to see how Oxmaint builds defensible water infrastructure capital plans.
Water infrastructure capital improvement planning is the systematic process of asset condition assessment, failure probability modeling, remaining useful life calculation, and multi-year investment prioritization — ranking every pipe replacement and pump station rehabilitation by risk-adjusted cost consequence, not age alone. Oxmaint automates this by converting work order data and inspection records into asset condition scores and rolling 10-year CIP forecasts that councils accept as investment justification.
The failure is not engineering competence. It is the absence of a system that translates field data into the financial language budget committees require.
Oxmaint connects every work order, inspection record, and sensor alert to your CIP model — producing defensible asset replacement cases that finance committees approve.
Four integrated modules — from asset condition baseline to council-ready 10-year CIP — on the same platform as your daily work orders and PM operations.
All mains, pump stations, treatment equipment, storage tanks, and control systems registered with installation data and replacement values. Historical break records imported and FCI scores assigned across the full portfolio.
RUL calculated per asset class using AWWA-aligned deterioration curves and maintenance cost accumulation — producing projections that align with SRF and IIJA documentation requirements.
Assets ranked by failure probability weighted by consequence — connections affected, regulatory exposure, emergency cost. A defensible replacement queue, not an age-sorted list that councils dismiss.
Rolling 10-year CIP generated automatically with annual budget requirements, SRF/IIJA/bond funding alignment, and phasing options for council review. Updates continuously as asset conditions evolve.
Large-diameter transmission infrastructure — condition scoring from break history, pressure anomaly trending, and material deterioration curves. RUL and replacement cost modeling per diameter class.
Pumps, filters, chemical systems, membranes, and electrical controls — maintenance cost accumulation tracked per asset with replacement versus refurbishment cost modeling and compliance documentation integration.
Booster and high-service pump stations — vibration trending, bearing condition, electrical system age, and structural assessment integrated into a single station-level FCI score driving replacement planning.
Ground-level and elevated storage facilities — coating condition, structural inspection records, cathodic protection status, and water quality compliance integrated with long-cycle rehabilitation and replacement scheduling.
Neighborhood distribution network — break frequency heat mapping, material cohort analysis (lead service line, aging cast iron, asbestos cement), and service area consequence scoring drive phased replacement prioritization.
Control system hardware, RTUs, PLCs, and HMI platforms — age, vendor support lifecycle, cybersecurity compliance status, and operational reliability integrated into capital replacement planning aligned with EPA cybersecurity guidance.
Oxmaint generates FCI-backed capital replacement forecasts that water utility directors, finance committees, and state revolving fund administrators accept as investment justification — not engineering estimates.
Oxmaint's capital planning documentation meets federal funding requirements, environmental frameworks, and data privacy obligations across all major operating regions. All data is encrypted AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit.

IIJA and SRF funding applications require documented asset management plans, condition assessments, and capital improvement programs. Oxmaint produces all of it from your existing maintenance and inspection data — no consultant engagement required.
Most utilities have their first FCI-backed CIP submission ready within 60 days. No IT project, no consultant fees for implementation.
All mains, pump stations, treatment plant equipment, storage facilities, and control systems registered with installation data, material, and replacement values. Historical break records, maintenance costs, and inspection reports imported and linked to asset profiles.
FCI scores calculated per asset class from maintenance cost data and condition records. RUL projections generated using AWWA deterioration curves. Consequence-of-failure scoring applied to produce risk-adjusted replacement priority rankings.
Rolling 10-year CIP generated from priority-ranked replacement queue. Budget requirements modeled with SRF, IIJA, bond, and rate revenue options. AWIA documentation package prepared. CIP formatted for council submission and revolving fund application.
PM records, inspections, and sensor alerts continuously update asset condition scores. CIP reprioritizes automatically as data evolves. Annual CIP refresh produced with no manual reassessment. Regulatory documentation always current for on-demand submission.
Water utilities on Oxmaint achieve 88% capital replacement approval rates, secure SRF and IIJA funding with documentation generated automatically from maintenance data, and eliminate the unplanned emergency failures that cost 5.2x more than planned replacements — live in 8 weeks, no consultant fees for implementation.
