PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Evoqua Water Technologies Corp. (NYSE: AQUA), an industry leader in mission-critical water treatment solutions, today announced that it has been named to the shortlist for Global Water Intelligence’s annual Global Water Award for Digital Water Company of the Year. The company has been recognized for its Water One® platform, which has reinvented the way industrial customers interact with their water treatment supplier by digitizing water systems management. Winners of the Global Water Awards will be announced at the Global Water Summit, taking place April 8-10 in London.
The Water One outsourced water management model uniquely combines Evoqua’s water expertise, proactive service and proven technology with data intelligence. The service aims to eliminate water system downtime, ensuring a consistent, high-quality water supply.
“Our Water One service is a compelling platform that enables our customers to focus on their core business needs while remaining confident that their water systems are consistently running at peak performance,” said Evoqua President and CEO Ron Keating. “We are proud to have this new solution recognized by Global Water Intelligence and look forward to convening with our customers and peers at the Global Water Summit next month.”
With the Water One platform, Evoqua determines the right technology and economic solution to meet customers’ on-site water requirements and from there, designs, builds, installs and maintains the systems. Additionally, the Water One service utilizes real-time data analytics and remote monitoring capabilities to enhance Evoqua’s own predictive maintenance economics by optimizing the utilization, routes and scheduling of its service personnel.
Water One has been applied to more than 700 customers in industrial, commercial and university applications across North America since its inception in 2018. Customers include a state-of-the-art laboratory in Florida and a hospital in Massachusetts, both of which require a constant supply of high-quality water, with zero margin for error.
Established in 2006, Global Water Intelligence’s Global Water Awards recognize the most important achievements in the international water industry within several categories and reward those initiatives in the water, wastewater and desalination sectors that are moving the industry forward through improved operating performance, innovative technology adoption and sustainable financial models.
