One short form covers everything — a complimentary initial screening, a consultation, or a partnership, pilot-site or investment enquiry. Just pick what you need.
What Kavida offers
From complimentary initial screening to measured pilot and evidence-led deployment.
Kavida helps clients and partners move from understanding the site's water balance to site-specific design, monitored validation and evidence-led implementation.
Complimentary initial screening
What the initial screening is designed to do
The screening is a short suitability review using customer-provided information. It is not a full water-balance assessment, detailed design or pilot recommendation.
Initial screening outcome
A clear decision on whether to investigate further
- Whether the site appears suitable for further Kavida assessment
- Obvious constraints, opportunities and important information gaps visible from the material provided
- Whether a paid desktop assessment is recommended as the next step
- The information and scope likely to be needed for that next stage
- If commissioned: the paid desktop assessment develops a preliminary water balance, identifies key constraints and can recommend a pilot where appropriate
Information that may support a later paid desktop assessment
You do not need all of this for the complimentary initial screening. If the screening indicates a good fit, these items can make a later paid desktop assessment more useful.
