Water and wastewater distribution networks are an essential part of the water cycle and a major tool in the preservation of water resources. 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.

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.

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.
