Utility Management Solutions

  1. How Hyper-Detailed Modeling Is Strengthening Worker Safety And Water Infrastructure Resilience 10/10/2025

    Water utilities are under mounting pressure to modernize aging infrastructure while keeping budgets under control, forcing owners and contractors to deliver reliable projects with leaner teams, tighter windows, and greater scrutiny. Hyper-detailed modeling is emerging as a critical solution for these challenges.

  2. Understanding Flow And Pressure In Municipal Water Systems 10/9/2025

    Effective pressure management is essential for reliable municipal water delivery, preventing pipe bursts, improving energy efficiency, and extending infrastructure life. Balancing flow and pressure, which are affected by factors like elevation and pipe integrity, is key to utility operations.

  3. WEFTEC 2025: Water Sector Pivots Toward Resilience, AI, And Circularity 10/7/2025

    From technology breakthroughs to operator excellence, this year’s event showed water’s future is already flowing.

  4. How AI Can Solve The "Silver Tsunami" And Support Small Water Utilities 10/3/2025
    While far from prolific, applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in the water and wastewater industry are nothing new. AI and machine learning have been used for data analytics for years. However, for small utilities and those with an aging workforce, these tools seem too high tech and costly to be practical. This doesn’t have to be the case, though. AI tools — particularly generative AI (Gen AI) and large language models (LLMs) — are able to address critical workforce shortages and resource constraints within the water and wastewater industry.
  5. Flood-Prone Houston Faces Hard Choices For Handling Too Much Water 10/3/2025
    There are three potential options to contain floods with tunnels to direct excess water out of Houston to the coast. As researchers who study disaster resilience, we bring complementary expertise to analyzing this complex discussion. Here are what we see as the key factors for the city to consider.
  6. Regulations And Standards For Water Quality Monitoring 10/2/2025

    Understanding global and national water standards is essential for compliance and safety. Rapid changes in regulation and the rise of emerging contaminants demand smarter, data-driven monitoring strategies.

  7. How Digital Payments Infrastructure Increases Hurricane Preparedness 9/26/2025
    The 2024 hurricane season was one of the most severe on record, creating unprecedented destruction to the tune of $182.7 billion worth of damage. Scientists predict that this year's storm season, which officially began June 1, will likely be highly active and volatile as well. As hurricanes become more difficult to accurately predict and prepare for, the damage caused by burst pipes, flooding, downed trees and debris, and disrupted utilities is also increasing.
