How It Works
Utility Infrastructure Assessment
We assess your treatment plants, pump stations, lift stations, and remote sites — mapping SCADA connectivity, evaluating OT/IT segmentation, and documenting AWIA compliance requirements.
Resilient Network Design
Our engineers design redundant networks connecting distributed facilities with proper OT/IT segmentation, backup communications paths, and cybersecurity controls meeting AWIA and EPA requirements.
Utility-Safe Installation
Our crews follow confined space, chemical handling, and water utility safety protocols. Installations are coordinated with operations to ensure treatment and distribution systems maintain continuous operation.
Compliance Documentation & Monitoring
We deliver as-built documentation supporting AWIA compliance, configure 24/7 network monitoring, and provide emergency support for critical water infrastructure systems.
Common Questions
Water & Wastewater IT Solutions FAQ
Can you connect remote pump stations and lift stations?
Yes. We deploy fiber, cellular, and radio links to connect remote utility sites back to your central SCADA system. Redundant communication paths ensure continuous monitoring even when primary links fail.
How do you handle OT/IT network segmentation?
We implement proper segmentation between SCADA/OT networks and business IT systems using industrial firewalls and DMZ architectures. This protects critical water treatment controls from IT-side cybersecurity threats.
Do you support AWIA compliance requirements?
We design infrastructure supporting America's Water Infrastructure Act (AWIA) requirements including cyber resilience assessments, emergency response plan infrastructure, and the cybersecurity controls needed for compliance documentation.
Can you install surveillance at unmanned utility sites?
We deploy solar-powered, cellular-connected cameras at remote pump stations, reservoirs, and unmanned facilities. Systems provide intrusion detection, vandalism alerts, and remote site inspection from your control center.
Do you provide cybersecurity for water utility SCADA systems?
We implement cybersecurity measures specifically for water utility SCADA including network monitoring, intrusion detection, access controls, and incident response procedures aligned with EPA and CISA cybersecurity guidance.
