Idrica
AI-powered digital transformation and water resource management platform built for the water sector
Idrica is a digital transformation platform purpose-built for water utilities (now part of Xylem Vue) that harnesses artificial intelligence to unlock the power of massive datasets across drinking water, wastewater, and water resource management. As climate change and urban expansion present unprecedented challenges, traditional water infrastructure often struggles with siloed data and outdated monitoring systems, making it difficult to respond to emergencies in real-time or optimize operations.
An Intelligent Platform Unifying All Water Operations Data
The core strength of the system lies in its deep integration of operational data across water infrastructure. It processes real-time information from network sensors, water treatment plants, and pump stations, deploying artificial intelligence and advanced analytics models for leak detection, water quality forecasting, and energy-optimized scheduling. Operations teams no longer need to juggle multiple systems; instead, they gain a unified, single-pane-of-glass overview to dramatically improve decision-making efficiency and lower maintenance costs.
A Critical Tool for Overcoming Water Management Pain Points
Idrica effectively tackles the persistent challenges of data silos and water loss that plague utilities. Through automated analysis, the system detects pipeline anomalies and potential rupture risks early, reducing Non-Revenue Water (NRW) losses. For water engineers, plant managers, and enterprise decision-makers, this is a powerful toolkit for realizing Smart Water Networks that balance environmental stewardship with economic viability, driving the modernization and sustainable operation of the traditional water sector.
