Data management & optimization

Modern water and wastewater utilities collect substantial volumes of data from a wide variety of sources – sensors and IoT devices, meters and AMI systems, condition assessment and inspections, and enterprise systems that support disparate operations and maintenance activities. SUEZ solutions such as eRIS and Optimizer focus on creating value for utilities and ensuring the right data is utilized to solve the problem at hand.
eRIS
eRIS, a SUEZ company, provides the foundation of our offering by setting up a utility for a successful digital transformation.

In the onslaught of data produced daily by our organizations, finding and using essential information is a challenge. Often data from different areas are handled within their own application, creating data silos within the utility. Working with eRIS allows us to better access data and make it available to the right people at the right time.

Working with eRIS also boasts these benefits:

Connect Everything

  • Secure: on-premise or secure cloud hosting
  • Low risk: No data warehouse, easily expandable
  • Results: Implementation in days, not weeks or months

Take Control of Your Data

  • Real0time reporting from soloed systems
  • Confidence in data with controlled edits
  • Automated reporting

Drive Operational Decisions

  • Set monitoring thresholds and alerts
  • Track KPIs with integrated workflows
  • Generate measurable values
