Future Of Cloud-Based Apps In Utility Operations

The water industry is embracing wireless smart meters and cloud-based applications, offering small to medium-sized utilities cost-effective solutions. These technologies address resource constraints and budget limitations. Cloud-based apps tailored for water utilities enable remote work, facilitating real-time collaboration, field work order management, remote water shutoff, and water usage monitoring.

These apps can offer real-time insights, batch scheduling, and integration with billing software. Interoperability is a hallmark, enabling seamless integration with existing utility environments. Future possibilities include machine learning and AI-driven cross-platform communication, automating processes from monitoring to billing, reducing human intervention, and enhancing efficiency in water delivery and management.
