PIPING UP
"It's been a massive project
and investment for us, but
an essential one. As anyone
who has experienced sewer
fl ooding will tell you, it's a
horrible thing to happen, and
it's our job to stop it."
Severn Trent project manager Wayne Ellis
(P15)
Michael
Bold, Senior
Consultant, WRc
(P37)
"Collecting data
is easy - utilities
are collecting
lots of it - but
making the
step from data
to actionable
intelligence is
where smart
delivers real
value."
