PSI, Abu Dhabi – How PSI Revolutionized Water Management with IoT Smart Meters

Introduction

Efficient water management is critical for industrial operations to control consumption, detect losses, and support sustainability goals. PSI, Abu Dhabi required better visibility into water usage across its factory operations, as manual readings and delayed reporting limited accuracy and timely decision-making.To address these challenges, PSI partnered with Covansys Technologies to deploy an IoT-enabled smart water metering solution. The solution enabled real-time monitoring, leakage detection, and consumption analytics to improve water management and operational control.

Challenges in Industrial Water Management

Key Issues Affecting Operations

Limited Consumption Visibility
