Friday, returning home after a long day…
The Exo team passed a couple waving for help - their car engulfed in flames. They sprang into action and swiftly extinguished the flames, preventing a catastrophe.

#2 One Skillful Inspector
Exo Targeted treatments reduces the required crew from 5 employees to 1 skilled inspector. This is good news for the utility and the customer. Full Excavation methods require 4 less skilled employees digging holes, treating, and covering holes.
#3 Less Damage to Your Poles
One of the most damaging things that is promoted as a treatment is fumigation of poles. The fumigation rod eventually creates a weak spot in the pole. Many owners of distribution poles have said that this is where the poles snap off in a storm.
#4 Shorter Time on Your System
Exo’s Targeted Inspection method for wood assets:
• 1 Inspector arrives at 9 AM on an Exo Truck, accomplishes the work and leaves by 9:20 AM.
VS.
The Full Excavation method:
• 4-5 people on customer’s property spaced out over 5 hours
A surgical approach is better for utilities….
The Partial Excavate/Selective Treatment Inspection covers the same points as the Full Excavate Inspection. Connect with an Exo leader to discuss the value of a Partial Excavation program for your utility.

Nick Mariotti, presents a compelling case for a Partial Excavation Inspection with a Targeted Treatment vs. Full Excavation:
• Cost is lower
• Smaller Footprint
• More Experienced Worker
• Shorter time on System
• Less Damage to Poles
