Aqua Analytics, a leading provider of water network intelligence solutions, has been awarded a two-year asset maintenance contract extension with Yarra Valley Water, one of Australia's largest water corporations.
The extension follows three years of successful collaboration in proactive leak detection and associated services.
Under the extended agreement, Aqua Analytics will continue to deploy its expertise and leakage management technologies to minimise water loss across Yarra Valley Water's vast distribution network, spanning 4,000 square kilometres and over 10,000 kilometres of water mains.
Using planned inspections and real-time network monitoring, Aqua Analytics will promptly identify and report leaks, facilitating swift repairs through Yarra Valley Water's integrated asset management system.
"We are thrilled to deepen our partnership with Yarra Valley Water and contribute to their ongoing commitment to water sustainability," said Hugh Chapman, Managing Director of Aqua Analytics.
"The positive outcomes of our initial collaboration underscore our shared mission to deliver reliable and sustainable water services to Yarra Valley Water's customers".
Aqua Analytics' innovative approach to network leak detection includes the use of acoustic equipment, sensors and data analytics to optimise specialist field teams. This has significantly improved leak identification for Yarra Valley Water, benefiting the environment and the more than 2 million people who rely on their services daily.
Yarra Valley Water Acting General Manager Service Futures Raghu Bharadwaj said Aqua Analytics had consistently proven their commitment to securing water resources for future generations.
“We're really excited to expand our partnership with Aqua Analytics, using their advanced AI data loggers to enhance our water management capabilities.”
"Their tailored approach not only optimises our operational efficiency, but also aligns perfectly with our customer commitment to deliver reliable and timely services, as outlined in our price submission.”
“By integrating Aqua Analytics' technology into our infrastructure, we're better equipped to proactively identify and resolve leaks quickly, ensuring better outcomes for our customers, the community, and environment,” Mr Bharadwaj said.
