Case Study: Seattle Public Utilities improves FOG program efficiency and compliance with Aquatic Informatics

Seattle Improves Access Compliance with FOG Program

Seattle Public Utilities faced the challenge of efficiently managing its Fats Oils and Grease (FOG) program with a small team. Their success depended on identifying problem areas and prioritizing inspections for over 5,000 food service establishments, but their critical data was trapped in two separate, unintegrated systems: their Linko FOG software and their ArcGIS mapping system.

Aquatic Informatics implemented a solution by integrating the Linko platform with the city's GIS data. This allowed for automated data sharing, digitized inspections via Remote Inspector, and streamlined risk assessments. As a result, Seattle Public Utilities optimized workflows, strengthened partnerships with businesses, and increased its inspection count by 316% over four years, significantly improving the efficiency of its program.
