PIPING UP
"A relatively small proportion
of sensor-derived information
is provided directly to
customers, which is surprising
given the growing demand for
instant access to information
across many service sectors."
Chris Jones, R&D Manager, Northumbrian
Water Group (P27)
Ian Kirkaldy,
Chief Engineer,
Southern Water
(P10)
"We have to
become an
intelligent
client... we are
learning again
how to be an
engineering
organisation."
