Aon and UVARA Partner to Reduce Infrastructure and Construction Risk

Aon and UVARA today announced a strategic alliance to help Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) sectors around the world better manage risk throughout the lifecycle of an asset and eliminate unanticipated problems and expensive delays.

AON’s Global Construction and Infrastructure Group is now featuring UVARA’s end-to-end infrastructure asset mapping and risk management solutions to their clients, prospects and partners to facilitate smarter planning, design and operational decisions. UVARA’s all-in-one platform helps organizations reduce risk by mapping surface and subsurface assets to avoid disruptions during construction or routine maintenance.

Through its cloud-based solution, UVARA provides full asset visualization, analytics, reporting and archive capabilities that identify potential risks to project designs, schedules, capital stacks, and maintenance/operations, while capturing and preserving institutional knowledge.

“Our goal is to raise awareness about leading construction and asset management technologies that could help reduce risk on-site and educate our clients and the insurance markets,” said David Bowcott, Aon’s Global Director, Growth, Innovation & Insight. “The UVARA Technology Corner Profile gives an overview of their solution, addresses its risk treatment potential, and identifies what insurance policies its implementation could impact.”

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Aon to transform the way the world sees and manages utility infrastructure,” said Michael London, UVARA’s CEO and Co-founder. “As one of the market’s most powerful mapping and visualization technology platforms, UVARA.Cloud is a game-changing risk management solution that helps decision-makers at every step of the acquire-plan-design-build-operate-disposition lifecycle.”
