Building a Data Culture and Digitally Transforming Water Utilities with Info360

Data is the foundation of any digital transformation, without which water utilities are unable to make informed decisions or optimize processes. Overcoming data hurdles in digital transformation is crucial for water utilities looking to merge IT and OT—with the greater aim to scale data's essential use across a given organization. With Anglian Water Services, the Autodesk team implemented operational smart technologies by clearly defining roles and responsibilities for data management, setting up data quality checks for water quality and distribution data, and implementing data security measures to ensure the integrity and protection of sensitive information. With data moving to the forefront of its operations, Anglian Water maximized advanced analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to save £150,000 a year at certain treatment plants. Teams were able to make sense of large and complex data sets, uncover hidden insights, and automate decision-making processes.
