Sayers and Partners

Ensuring the acceptable performance of flood defence assets and the asset systems they compose is a considerable challenge. Our staff have expertise in a wide variety in asset types (from natural channels to engineered walls, embankments, gates and pump systems) and the interaction between them and their physical setting. The concepts of system analysis, reliability and structured option searching all provide useful decision aids. Out use of these advanced tools and techniques enable critical assets and asset components to be identified and investment options to be compared and prioritised on a common footing (from data collection and further analysis through to actions to repair, renovate, replace or indeed remove assets).
