Doing More With the Same Budget - How Westerville Reduced Outages and Costs with LiveEO Treeline

Vegetation management has traditionally been judged by effort: miles patrolled, trees trimmed, crews deployed. But effort alone doesn’t guarantee reliability, cost control, or long-term progress. For the City of Westerville Electric Division, that realization sparked a fundamental rethink of how vegetation management should operate. Faced with rising complexity, contractor constraints, and increasing expectations from leadership, the team needed a way to deliver better outcomes per dollar spent, not just more activity. By adopting AI-powered, satellite-based vegetation intelligence, Westerville shifted from managing work volume to managing impact. Instead of asking “Are we keeping up?”, the team could ask better questions: Which work actually reduces future risk? Where does effort eliminate repeat visits? How do today’s decisions affect costs three or four years from now? The result has been a vegetation management program that delivers fewer outages, materially lower unit costs, and significantly higher productivity, while improving confidence in planning, budgeting, and reporting.
