What you receive

With Precision Mode, you gain technical-grade, decision-ready intelligence.

AI-supported defect detection (e.g. micro-cracks, material fatigue)

Photorealistic 3D model of the asset (if needed)

Engineering-grade inspection report with actionable recommendations

Quantitative data for trend analysis and planning

Archived digital records for compliance, auditing, and follow-up

Precision mode leverages AI and advanced 3D modeling to detect issues like surface cracks down to 0.2 mm. Smart analytics generate accurate, actionable reports, supporting data-driven maintenance strategies.

Built for infrastructure that can’t afford to fail, when a surface-level inspection isn’t enough, Precision Mode offers a new dimension of clarity. This advanced inspection service uses AI analytics, high-resolution imaging, and—if needed—photorealistic 3D modeling to uncover hidden issues, detect micro-defects, and guide long-term asset strategies.

Go beyond the surface. Deeper insights. Predictive maintenance.

Choose Precision Mode when your asset strategy demands:

  • Quantitative defect analysis beyond what’s visible to the human eye
  • Root-cause diagnostics to understand why damage is occurring
  • Detailed technical reports to support legal, insurance, or regulatory processes
  • Predictive maintenance planning and long-term performance monitoring

This mode is especially relevant for:

  • Concrete degradation in dams, tunnels, and infrastructure
  • Structural analysis of offshore platforms or concrete pools
  • Precast concrete asset evaluation
  • Warranty, refurbishment, and lifecycle planning

The process: From scan to strategy

Precision Mode is thorough, structured, and backed by engineering insight:Precision Mode is thorough, structured, and backed by engineering insight.

    Scoping & planning

    Together we define inspection goals, regulatory considerations, and 3D or AI needs.

    Data acquisition

    Our teams capture high-resolution data using drones, scanners or cameras.

    Advanced analysis

    AI algorithms detect micro-defects and degradation patterns. Our inspectors interpret the results and determine root causes.

    Deliverables

    You receive a comprehensive report with findings, a 3D model (if applicable), and secure digital access to all data for internal or external use.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Precision Mode?

Precision Mode is Kiwa’s advanced inspection service that uses AI analysis and optional 3D modeling to assess the integrity of assets in detail. It is designed for in-depth diagnostics, micro-defect detection, and predictive maintenance planning.

How is Precision Mode different from Efficiency Mode?

Efficiency Mode focuses on fast, drone-based inspections reviewed by certified experts 

Precision Mode uses AI and (if necessary) 3D simulation to detect micro-damage and assess long-term structural risks.

What kind of defects can Precision Mode detect?

Precision Mode can detect cracks as small as 0.2 mm, material degradation, corrosion patterns, and other anomalies that may not be visible with standard inspections.

Do I always need a 3D model?

No. The 3D model is created only if needed to support a deeper understanding of the asset or to enable comparison and simulation over time.

What deliverables will I receive?

You will receive a detailed technical report, AI-generated defect map, and—if applicable—a photorealistic 3D model. All data is securely archived for future use.

Is this suitable for regulated or critical infrastructure?

Yes. Precision Mode is often used for inspections related to compliance, warranty validation, or investment planning, especially for aging or high-risk structures.
