Visit SAM at the TEAM Conference at Booth #3

As infrastructure programs become more complex, project teams face increasing expectations related to utility risk management, safety, schedule certainty, and data quality. SAM supports these needs through Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) and GIS consulting services that help owners, designers, and contractors identify and manage subsurface risk earlier in the project lifecycle and carry validated utility intelligence into design and delivery.

Educational Session at TEAM

SAM will also contribute to the TEAM Conference technical program with a session on the practical intersection of SUE and GIS.

Session 4A: What Lies Beneath: SUE and GIS Innovation and Integration

Date/Time: Wednesday, March 11, 3:30–4:10 p.m.

Location: Rooms Landmark 5–7

Presenters: Chris Rutledge, PE, CPM, Department Manager for Engineering Inspection, and Kirk Larson, Vice President of GIS Consulting

The session will address how SUE and GIS can be integrated to support clearer utility intelligence, stronger coordination, and more confident decision making for complex infrastructure projects.

“As infrastructure projects become more complex, Subsurface Utility Engineering faces higher expectations, making it important to understand both its fundamentals and the realistic benefits and limits of emerging technologies,” said Chris Rutledge.

Attendees are invited to visit Booth 3 to meet the SAM team and discuss project needs related to SUE, GIS integration, and utility coordination.
