Water and wastewater utilities have long been considered conservative, but the time for digital adoption has arrived. Big challenges are speeding the change: aging plants, volatile weather patterns, carbon emission goals, rising power costs, workforce issues, population growth and shrinking budgets. Some utilities have made the change, but small and cash-strapped utilities that believe they must take a monumental “rip and replace” approach to modernize are hesitating.

Instead, utilities can do it in a conservative, scalable way that suits their budgets, using a hybrid model that combines SaaS cloud technology and their own existing architecture. They’ll also realize a significant ROI. This playbook offers five compelling cases that show how digital technology not only empowers efficient engineering and the best use of resources but: 

• Uncovers and capitalizes on revenue streams
• Provides scalability
• Drives sustainability, security, safety and compliance.
