Aqua Analytics awarded two-year extension to Yarra Valley Water asset maintenance contract

Yarra Valley Water has awarded a two-year asset maintenance contract extension to Aqua Analytics, a leading provider of water network intelligence solutions. 

The extension follows three years of successful collaboration in proactive leak detection and associated services.

Under the extended agreement, Aqua Analytics will continue to deploy its expertise and leakage management technologies to minimise water loss across Yarra Valley Water's vast distribution network, spanning 4,000 square kilometres and over 10,000 kilometres of water mains. 

Yarra Valley Water Acting General Manager Service Futures Raghu Bharadwaj said Aqua Analytics had consistently proven their commitment to securing water resources for future generations. 

“We're really excited to expand our partnership with Aqua Analytics, using their advanced AI data loggers to enhance our water management capabilities.”

 "Their tailored approach not only optimises our operational efficiency, but also aligns perfectly with our customer commitment to deliver reliable and timely services, as outlined in our price submission.”

Aqua Analytics' innovative approach to network leak detection includes the use of acoustic equipment, sensors and data analytics to optimise specialist field teams.

“By integrating Aqua Analytics' technology into our infrastructure, we're better equipped to proactively identify and resolve leaks quickly, ensuring better outcomes for our customers, the community, and environment,” Mr Bharadwaj said.

Using planned inspections and real-time network monitoring, Aqua Analytics will promptly identify and report leaks, facilitating swift repairs through Yarra Valley Water's integrated asset management system.

Managing Director of Aqua Analytics Hugh Chapman said the company was excited to continue to play a central role in Yarra Valley Water’s asset management.

"We are thrilled to deepen our partnership with Yarra Valley Water and contribute to their ongoing commitment to water sustainability," 

"The positive outcomes of our initial collaboration underscore our shared mission to deliver reliable and sustainable water services to Yarra Valley Water's customers," Mr Chapman said.
