Losses are visible too late
Combine meter, DMA and network information so abnormal demand and probable losses can be identified sooner.
Water Demand Management System
See consumption, losses and network events in the same spatial picture.
A GIS-first, smart-meter-ready platform for water consumption, district metered areas, non-revenue water analysis, leaks, bursts, pressure, alerts, work orders and savings reporting.

Why it matters
Move from scattered information to an operational picture.
The system is designed around the decisions infrastructure teams need to make every day: what exists, where it is, what condition it is in, what requires attention and what happened next.
Meter data has no location context
Attach readings to customers, meters, zones, pipelines and operational areas in GIS.
Repairs and savings are disconnected
Link alerts and field work to the water-loss event so the organisation can measure response and verified savings.
Core capabilities
Built around the full information lifecycle.
Modules can be adapted to the organisation's asset hierarchy, terminology, inspection methods, decision rules and reporting requirements.
Meter data ingestion
Receive smart meter readings through APIs or IoT gateways and store time-series consumption against the correct meter and location.
DMA management
Define district metered areas, inflows, customer demand, night flow and related network assets in GIS.
NRW analysis
Compare supplied water with authorised consumption and known components to support non-revenue water investigation.
Leak & burst alerts
Apply thresholds and anomaly rules to flag unusual consumption, continuous flow, probable leaks or network events.
Pressure visibility
Incorporate pressure measurements where available to support pressure management and event diagnosis.
Field response
Create and track investigations, leak repairs, burst work and close-out evidence from alert to completion.
Consumption intelligence
Analyse customer, area and time-based demand patterns, trends and exceptions for operational and planning use.
Savings reporting
Track estimated and verified water savings, response times, recurring problem areas and programme performance.
Operating workflow
One clear path from information to action.
Every module is designed to preserve the connection between the source evidence, the asset, the decision and the resulting work.
01Receive
Meters, bulk meters, pressure sensors and manual data.
02Validate
Check timestamps, meter identity, gaps and abnormal values.
03Analyse
Calculate demand, DMA balance, NRW indicators and anomalies.
04Respond
Create alerts, investigations and repair work.
05Verify
Measure post-repair demand and report savings.
System structure
Designed as a connected infrastructure data stack.
The platform can start with a focused use case and grow over time. The architecture separates field capture, structured data, GIS, business logic, integration and reporting so each part can evolve without turning the system into a monolith.
01Experience layer
Responsive web interfaces, field forms, dashboards and reporting.
02Application & API layer
Business rules, workflows, authentication, integrations and automation.
03Data layer
Structured relational data, asset history, documents and audit records.
04Spatial layer
GIS geometry, network context, mapping, spatial queries and location intelligence.
05Integration layer
Existing enterprise systems, IoT feeds, imports, exports and BI tools.
What the client gains
Infrastructure decisions with a clearer evidence trail.
✓Earlier loss detection
✓NRW visibility by area
✓Faster operational response
✓Measurable water savings
