Practically based advice for water utilities, organizations and companies working with critical infrastructure.
At DWI, we advise on the construction, operation and development of cable networks - based on experience from leak detection, wire search and analysis of water losses in real-world supply networks. Our work combines practical insights from the field with technology, measurements and data.
The goal is to create a better decision-making basis for operations, investments and future development of supply networks.
We combine technical expertise, advanced methods and many years of experience with leak detection on complex supply systems – and we always work with a focus on precise troubleshooting and qualified decision-making.
An industry in change
Water supply has been a practical subject for many years. Today, there is also a significant technological development. Monitoring, sensors, data analysis and documentation requirements play an increasingly important role in the work with water loss and operation.
At the same time, many utilities are facing a generational change – both technically and mentally. The classic experience from operations and maintenance is increasingly supplemented by data and systematic analyses.
This creates new opportunities, but also new requirements for how a wiring network is designed and understood.
The entire chain must work
At DWI, we work from a simple experience:
In water supply, data only works if the installations do. The entire chain – from valve to cover to advanced data processing – must work.
A wiring network is not just pipes in the ground. It is a system of many elements that must be interconnected.

If one link in the chain fails, it affects the rest of the system. That's why we always work with the whole – both physically and digitally.
Advice based on reality
Our advice stems from work in the field. When you work daily with leaks, installations and measurements in a network, you gain an understanding of the systems that cannot be achieved from a desk alone.
We use this experience to analyze networks and propose solutions that work in practice – both technically and organizationally.
What we advise on
DWI advises on, among other things:
- structure and construction of water supply networks
- sectioning and establishment of measurement zones
- reduction and analysis of water loss (NRW)
- planning of leak detection and network review
- placement of loggers and monitoring systems
- understanding and use of data from power grids
The advice can range from specific technical issues to the strategic development of an entire supply network.
Interaction between practice, technology and data
Developments in the industry mean that data and monitoring play an increasingly important role. But the best results occur when technology is combined with real-world experience.
At DWI we therefore work at the intersection of:
- work in the wiring network
- measurements and instruments
- data analysis and monitoring
- planning and strategy
This provides a more realistic picture of the situation and a better basis for decisions.
Consulting for utilities, organizations and industry
DWI works primarily with water supplies, but also with organizations and companies that are responsible for complex installations or critical infrastructure.
Some tasks are about a specific challenge in a network. Others are about understanding the system better and planning future investments.
In all cases, the goal is the same: to create an overview, reduce water loss and strengthen security of supply.
No. Our advice is based on practical work with leak detection, measurements and analysis.
Yes. Many tasks combine analysis, measurements and work in the wiring network.
No. We also work with organizations and companies with technical installations.
