Datatecnics’ AI assistant for leakage teams shortlisted for ‘Leakage Initiative of the Year’ at the Water Industry Awards

Datatecnics’ AI assistant for leakage teams has been shortlisted for ‘Leakage Initiative of the Year’ in the prestigious Water Industry Awards.

‍

Co-developed closely with the leakage team at United Utilities, the shortlisted solution, ‘Leak Response’, helps water companies locate and respond to leaks quicker.

‍

Combining proprietary algorithms and an intuitive UI packaged in an easy-to-use application, Leak Response helps leakage teams:

‍

• Optimise Leakage Technicians’ investigation routes based on the likeliest location of the leak
• To get a clear view over the previously opaque workflow in the field
• Track critical performance metrics, bringing leakage reporting into a single source of truth with real-time analytics

‍

“With Leak Response, our key goal was to build an exceptionally easy-to-use solution that directly addresses the pain points of leakage teams. ‍

By combining our expertise in AI, water systems modelling, and software development with the experience of the highly collaborative team at United Utilities, we were able to build an exceptional product that can dramatically reduce the time it takes to find and fix leaks across the sector.”

Suhayl Zufliquar, CEO, Datatecnics
