No quantified results disclosed
What this does not establish
2025 status is development; 2026 handbook supports ML use in assessment but does not establish that it is the identical tool. No external validation, model performance or savings disclosed. Annual integrity spend is not attributable to this ML workflow.
Good operational fit because prediction narrows an established inspection-to-engineering workflow; evidence supports development and later general ML use, but public material does not link the same named model to measured outcomes.
