NO FAKE LOGOS

Name the collaboration type before anyone asks for a badge

PipeGuardian needs scene, trial, supply, academic and methods counterparts. This page lists types and entry conditions. Without a written licence, this site does not place an institution logo or the title “strategic partner”.

SCENE

Joint scene trial

A recoverable task in a de-energised drain, utility corridor or non-explosive industrial passage. Output is a comparison report. Site names stay unpublished by default. Entry: recoverable, monitored, supervised.

LAB

Rig and method replay

Minimum experiments on collision, localisation drop-out, low light or gas wash. Suits university labs and test houses. Entry: data can be replayed, failures can be kept, IP is agreed in advance.

SUPPLY

Engineering supply

Cage, machining, composites, connectors, sensing modules and harnesses. Entry: small batches, tool changes, inspection records — not appearance-only quotes.

INTEGRATE

Inspection and operations integration

An existing CCTV or robot service treats aerial reconnaissance as a blind-spot module. Entry: complement rather than replace; report formats can be mapped.

ACADEMY

Topic-level academic work

An 8–12 week single-point check. Public research directions on the academy page are for matching, not a signed faculty list. Entry: written permission before using a university name or “joint R&D”.

FUNDING

Subsidy coaching and science parks

Help aligning eligibility and files. Inflated performance copy is declined. Entry: fees and work packages can be audited; no duplicate filings.

PROCESS

A conversation is not yet a trial

  1. Choose one type above.
  2. Write info@b1p.com with medium, diameter, access, recoverability, explosive-atmosphere bounds, and the question to be tested.
  3. Fit review: recoverable corridor, supervised rig, separable joint trial, or a standards discussion that helps an evidence gate.
  4. Written trial terms: data ownership, whether methods may be published, site-name handling, safety lead.
  5. Begin work. Concept, laboratory and field stay labelled as themselves.
  6. A logo wall appears only after a trademark-use licence. Matching a public research direction is not a signed partnership, investment or endorsement.

DUTIES AND NEXT STEP

What each side owes

  • PipeGuardian: no invented customers, performance or certifications; no form harvest; no mailbox receipt promise.
  • Scene host: recovery, monitoring and a named supervisor.
  • Lab: replayable data and a prior IP note.
  • Supplier: inspection records, not appearance-only parts.
  • Integrator: mapped report format; aerial reconnaissance as a complement.
  • Next step: one mail to info@b1p.com. Channel-reseller pitches that demand invented operating numbers are declined. Site administration: admin@b1p.com.
A public research-direction match is not already a collaboration, investment or endorsement. The logo wall appears only after a trademark-use licence.
