Data is becoming critical as water utilities evolve to be more customer focused. When the world is moving rapidly on the digital journey, customer expectations are also evolving.

Customers today expect smarter, faster and more efficient services. To adapt to this paradigm shift, water industry players have started investigating and implementing smart solutions to provide their customers excellent service. This means becoming customer focused and putting customers at the heart of their decision making.

3

In this context, ‘smart water network’ has become a popular term over recent years. A smart water network is an integrated set of solutions that enable utilities to remotely and continuously monitor the network, manage maintenance issues and use data to optimise all aspects of the water distribution network. As a greater outcome, utilities deliver better and more efficient services as well as maximising return on investment, optimising energy, and preserving water resources.

SUEZ strives to develop smart and reliable network monitoring solutions to assist water utilities in being more customer focused and achieving their business objectives.
