Commissioned briefing
Infrastructure event analysis
A bound reconstruction of one named incident — feeder trip, pump failure, possession overrun, crane stoppage — with a drawn chronology and a clear list of what the records cannot prove.
Who this is for
This commission is for the person who must explain an infrastructure event to a director, a neighbouring operator, or a Georgian regulator after the scramble has ended. Typical clients sit in municipal electricity and water, Georgian Railway possessions, Batumi port plant, and hydro stations on the Chorokhi and Adjaristskali. You already have some records. You do not yet have a sequence that a stranger to the night shift can follow.
What you receive
The result is a bound briefing, printed and supplied as a PDF of the same pages. It contains:
- a chronology that marks every timestamp source (SCADA, protection flag, shift log, radio note, photograph EXIF)
- a drawn sequence of the restoration or failure, labelled with the names operators actually use
- contributing factors that the records support, written as statements, not as blame
- a short list of facts the file cannot prove, so nobody fills the gaps in a meeting
- an annex of source extracts so a sceptical reader can check us
We sit with you for one reading of the draft. After that reading we issue the final pages.
What is in scope
Included: reading the packet you send; one site visit within Georgia when the equipment still shows marks; interviews with up to four people who were on shift or on call; the drawings; the bound briefing; the draft reading.
Excluded: live dispatch, legal advocacy, design of new protection settings, software installation, and reconstruction of events older than five years unless the paper archive is unusually complete.
Who does the work
Nino Kapanadze leads the reading of electrical and SCADA traces. Giorgi Tskitishvili draws the maps and sequences. Tamar Beridze edits the briefing so it can be photocopied without losing the argument. Site visits are made by at least one of Nino or Giorgi.
How the weeks run
- Intake. You send the asset name, the time window, and whatever files you hold. We reply with a first reading of scope and a fee range within two working days.
- Packet. We list missing records. You gather what still exists. The clock starts when the agreed packet is in Batumi, not when the event happened.
- Site. If a visit will still show something — a burnt contact, a flooded pit, a mislabelled panel — we travel. If the plant has already been rebuilt, we say so and stay with the paper.
- Draft. You receive numbered pages. We meet once, in the office or on a call, and mark disagreements in the margin.
- Issue. Final pages, bound. We keep a file copy for seven years unless you instruct us to destroy it.
Duration and place
Most municipal events close in two weeks. Transmission-corridor and railway-possession files often need four, because more clocks and more organisations are involved. Work is based at Level 8, 24 Rustaveli Street, Batumi 6010. Visits run across Adjara and, by arrangement, further into Georgia.
What you should prepare
Send, if you have them: the alarm print, the protection flags, the shift log for twelve hours either side, photographs with original times, radio or telephone notes, and the names of people willing to talk. Do not tidy the logbook. Crossed-out lines are evidence.
Constraints
We do not reconstruct an event while restoration is still underway. We do not accept a brief that asks us to prove a predetermined cause. If two clocks disagree, both remain on the page. Georgian is welcome in source documents; the issued briefing is in English unless you commission a Georgian counterpart at extra fee.
Price
Fees are quoted per event. A contained municipal incident with a complete packet starts at 4,800 GEL. A multi-operator transmission or railway file is quoted after intake. Site travel inside Adjara is included; travel beyond is billed at the day rate on the rates page. A 30 percent retainer is due when we accept the packet.
Next step
Write to the desk with the asset, the night, and what you already hold. If the file is suitable we will say so plainly, with a fee range, before anyone travels.
