Connecting data, models and engineering intelligence to support faster, better-informed decisions.
Water utilities generate enormous volumes of data — from asset registers and SCADA systems to hydraulic models and maintenance records. The challenge is not the data itself, but connecting it in ways that support better decisions. DWS provides digital services grounded in engineering context, not just IT capability.
Start with what decisions need to be made, then work backwards to identify the data and tools required.
Connect asset registers, SCADA, GIS, hydraulic models and operational data into coherent, usable pipelines.
Decision support dashboards, reporting tools and digital twins that engineers and planners actually use.
Tools built to be durable, maintainable and aligned with existing client technology environments.
Water utilities have invested heavily in data collection — but too often that data sits in silos, disconnected from the models and planning tools that could make it useful. DWS bridges the gap between data, engineering models and operational decision-making, building systems that are grounded in real infrastructure context.
Our digital services are engineered from the ground up around real infrastructure decisions — not generic IT solutions retrofitted to a water context. We work closely with client IT and operational teams to ensure every tool we build is durable, supported, and delivers lasting value.
Our services span the full digital stack — from data pipelines and model integration through to dashboards, decision support systems and digital twins — all grounded in deep water engineering expertise.
Asset registers, SCADA, GIS and hydraulic model data connected into coherent, usable pipelines and platforms that support planning and operations.
Hydraulic models linked to operational data for near-real-time network understanding, plus model platform migrations across InfoWorks, MIKE+ and InfoWater.
Dashboards, reporting tools and analytical frameworks that put insight in the hands of decision-makers — built to be used, not just demonstrated.
Scoping, design and development of digital twin systems for water network monitoring, scenario testing and long-term planning support.
Too many digital projects are built around data availability rather than decision needs. DWS starts every engagement by asking what decisions need to be made, then identifies the data, models and tools required to support them — ensuring every investment delivers tangible operational value.
Our team combines deep water engineering knowledge with hands-on capability across data integration, hydraulic modelling platforms and digital tool development.
A selection of recent projects demonstrating our digital integration and model capability across Australian and New Zealand utilities.
WSP and DWS examined the benefits of live operational network models for Unitywater, performing a technical gap analysis and developing a roadmap for the future adoption of live hydraulic modelling across Unitywater’s water and sewerage networks.
Provided Unitywater with a clear understanding of the benefits, data requirements, and implementation pathway for transitioning to live operational hydraulic models.
Seqwater engaged DWS to complete an additional water balance assessment to confirm Mt Crosby’s minimum supply requirements across a range of water restriction scenarios, underpinned by the Interim Integrated Master Plan (IIMP) assumptions.
Delivered a robust water balance assessment confirming Mt Crosby’s minimum supply requirements under the revised IIMP assumptions, providing the evidence base for sound operational and investment planning.
