RJN Group, Inc. is pleased to announce that, as part of our never-ending efforts to bring innovative solutions to our clients, we have officially partnered with KenWave Solutions, Inc. to bring proactive insights into water transmission and distribution networks. This partnership will bring KenWave’s groundbreaking non-invasive vibroacoustic analysis to water systems across the United States.
Branded by RJN as AVA, or advanced vibroacoustic analysis, this technology, powered by DRI™, applies vibroacoustic signals to active pipelines, which “makes pressure pipes sing.” The resulting pipeline vibrations are analyzed by KenWave to deliver precise pipeline condition data, accurate to within a few feet.
Our core mission at RJN is delivering value through advanced infrastructure engineering solutions. I'm proud to announce our strategic partnership with KenWave Solutions, which brings revolutionary condition assessment technology to water pipelines.”

“This will significantly reduce costs for utilities, while providing the actionable data they need to manage their systems with confidence. This is exactly the kind of innovation that has defined RJN's industry leadership for 50 years," he added.
RJN Group will lead the deployment of the technology to municipal utilities and industrial water systems, with analytical support and leadership provided by KenWave’s team.
KenWave is excited to partner with RJN to bring advanced pipeline condition assessment solutions to more utilities. By combining our Dynamic Response Imaging™ (DRI™) technology with RJN’s trusted client relationships, engineering expertise, and dedicated field services team, we’re empowering utilities to make smarter, data-driven pipeline management decisions.”

The AVA technology is well-positioned to drive prioritization in annual replacement programs, assess hard-to-inspect live water mains, and become the paradigm for executing water system asset management programs.
AVA assessment findings show the pipe condition at a six-foot level of resolution.
