Overview
The key objective for all water supply and distribution organizations is the efficient and sustainable supply of high quality water. This should be provided at an acceptable pressure and with minimal leakage losses. This challenge is affected by weather conditions, stringent regulatory environments, security concerns and an increasingly aware consumer audience.
InfoWorks WS gives an accurate view of the performance of your network and assists with meeting your operational targets. An accurate all mains water supply model can identify infrastructure weaknesses, water quality incidents and other operational needs. The model can also be used to simulate emergency conditions and investigate solutions.
Example Applications
- Assessment of supply to individual customer level
- Investigation of supply deficiencies
- Demand management
- Design and implementation of drought management plans
- Planning of capital investment programs
- Critical link analysis
- Scenario planning & fire flow analysis
- Simulation of pollution incidents
- Assessing source blending requirements
- Water quality and chlorination assessment
- Sedimentation analysis and mains flushing
- Optimization of pumping systems
- Optimization of system storage
