AMR, AMI and Metering CASE STUDIES

  1. AMI's Next Phase: Turning Meter Data Into Operational Value 6/9/2026
    A recent series of workshops convened by The Water Research Foundation (WRF) underscores how utilities are beginning to use AMI data to support conservation, improve system performance, and move toward more proactive operations. The takeaway is straightforward: most utilities now have the data; the challenge is putting it to work.
  2. Beyond Meter-to-Cash: 7 Operational Use Cases Water Utilities Can Unlock With MDM 6/8/2026

    Modern Meter Data Management platforms transform raw data into operational intelligence. Beyond standard billing, continuous data analysis surfaces hidden leaks, detects backflow, and flags failing hardware, allowing water utilities to proactively reduce non-revenue water loss and improve system reliability.

  3. Remote Water Meter Reader: How To Retrofit Existing Water Meters For Automatic Reading 5/21/2026

    Automating manual water meter readings reduces non-revenue water loss and eliminates tedious site inspections. Retrofitting existing meters with cellular data loggers provides continuous, real-time analytics, enabling operators to identify hidden leaks and optimize multi-facility infrastructure management instantly.

  4. Turning AMI Data Into Better Customer Service 5/18/2026

    For decades, the relationship between a water utility and its customers was simple. As water flows, the bills go out, and sometimes complaints come back. Customers had little visibility into how much water they were actually using on a day-to-day basis, and utilities had limited tools to give them any. Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) has long since changed that equation. 

  5. Modernizing Water Stewardship In The Desert Southwest 5/14/2026

    Discover how advanced metering infrastructure transforms water management by providing real-time visibility into distribution networks. Learn to identify leaks proactively, reduce non-revenue water loss, and empower consumers with data-driven insights to ensure long-term resource resilience.

  6. From AMI To Operational Control: Why Performance, Control, And Confidence Matter 5/12/2026

    Modern infrastructure requires moving beyond data collection toward true operational control. Discover how focusing on performance, network priority, and engineered resilience allows utilities to manage leaks and emergencies with total confidence.

  7. How The City Of Fallon Improved Sodium Hydroxide Dosing Reliability 5/12/2026

    Learn how transitioning to peristaltic metering technology solved chronic priming and maintenance issues during arsenic removal. This overview highlights how specialized pump designs improve chemical dosing reliability, enhance operator safety, and maximize facility space.

  8. 5 Questions Utility Leaders Must Ask About Their AMI Strategy 5/12/2026

    By asking these five questions, water utilities can move beyond basic AMI connectivity toward a model of total operational control.

  9. Reaching Utility-Grade AMI Without Compromise: How Utilities Can Remove Barriers To High-Performance Networks 5/11/2026

    Overcome the financial and operational barriers to high-performance AMI by exploring how specialized network architecture and service-based delivery models eliminate risk. Learn how to achieve prioritized communication, long-term resilience, and total operational control without upfront costs.

  10. Do Water Meters Still Need External Transmitters? 5/1/2026
    Expectations for transparency and reliability in water-metering infrastructure have risen. As a result, a fundamental question is emerging across the industry: if modern ultrasonic meters are already smart, why are we still adding intelligence outside the meter?
