- Trimble has announced the availability of its remote monitoring IoT hardware and software solutions offered as a service for water and wastewater utilities
Trimble has announced the availability of its remote monitoring IoT hardware and software solutions offered as a service for water and wastewater utilities. And with this new program, water and wastewater utilities (through a subscription) can access the latest in hardware and software technologies for remote monitoring of critical infrastructure.
Trimble’s Water Division focuses on solving key challenges that water, wastewater, and stormwater utilities face as their infrastructure ages. And Trimble’s solutions combine advanced positioning devices, Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, and communication technologies with enterprise, mobile, and cloud software and analytics to provide utilities with a digital view and analysis of their networks. These solutions enable utilities to assess, monitor, inspect and manage their network in real-time—saving costs, reducing water loss, enhancing asset performance while improving regulatory compliance and customer service.
As an alternative to the traditional approach of purchasing equipment and software up-front, the Solutions-as-a-Service provides utilities with the option to begin projects quickly with a reduced upfront investment and a predictable annual subscription. And this enables utilities of all sizes to access a wide range of remote monitoring solutions that fit their financial and operational needs and budgets.
The Solutions-as-a-Service utilize Trimble’s Telog family of IoT remote monitoring hardware, proven and deployed by thousands of utilities and industry service providers in combination with the Trimble Unity Remote Monitoring cloud and mobile software. And the combination helps utilities lower water loss leakage and improve service, reduce wastewater and stormwater overflows and spills as well as enhance regulatory compliance.
The Solutions-as-a-Service allow customers to create tailored subscription service bundles to meet their needs, providing flexibility to address a specific project, monitor ongoing operations, or support long-term performance, sustainability, and resiliency programs. This program includes support, training, technology assurance and periodic system operating reviews to maximize uptime and performance throughout the life of the subscription.
“As a continued commitment to addressing our customer needs and challenges, we are now offering our latest technology solutions with a subscription option,” said Alain Samaha, vice president and general manager of Trimble Utilities and Public Administration. “The flexible purchasing option combined with value-added services from Trimble’s Water business partners creates a more accessible end-to-end infrastructure monitoring solution for water and wastewater utilities of all sizes.”
Trimble’s Solutions-as-a-Service for remote monitoring are available now in the U.S. through Trimble Water and its Authorized Business Partners.
