Water and wastewater utilities across the United States find themselves in very similar situations; plagued by aging infrastructure, handicapped by tight budgets, and unable to access live data. A recent article (below) published last month by Pumps&Systems discusses how IIoT can be leveraged to help provide more visibility to small and medium sized municipalities. Access to data that has previously been unavailable will help smart professionals target specific infrastructure needs without wasting resources on infrastructure that does not pose an immediate threat.

Often local municipalities lag behind on the tech curve because of inadequate funding and fewer resources. The IoT revolution can be different. Centered around low cost, simple to deploy solutions, IoT will allow small-to-medium sized municipalities to streamline data collection and have better asset visibility. With a finger on the "pulse" of their data, operators and supervisors will make key "cost saving" decisions more often.
Every day the machinery and equipment that surrounds you produces more and more data. The IIoT is moving forward, whether you are embracing it or not. Earlier in the year, Forbes published an article that estimated the IoT market would see more than 267 billion in purchasing dollars by 2020! As more industries and operations embrace IIoT technology, the challenge they will face is turning this massive data pool into knowledge that will help them run more efficiently and return a better ROI.

Every OEM wants their equipment to operate to the highest standard, and no one, client included, wants to experience unplanned downtime due to equipment failure. As an OEM, what steps can you take to reduce warranty claims and increase client satisfaction? You might be surprised to learn how you can benefit from "building-in" the ability to remotely capture data from your equipment in the field.
