Turning data into valuable insight

We work with water utilities and infrastructure owners to make better investment, operational and risk-management decisions through predictive analytics and asset intelligence.

Combining engineering expertise, hydraulic modelling, asset performance data, cost modelling and digital decision-support tools, we forecast asset behaviour, optimise investment programmes and improve network resilience. These solutions enable organisations to move from reactive maintenance towards proactive asset management while balancing service, cost and environmental outcomes.

Water Asset Network Data Analytics (WANDa)

WANDa is WRc’s asset intelligence and network analytics capability that helps water companies to understand the condition, performance and risk profile of their assets.

By combining operational, hydraulic and asset datasets, the platform supports risk-based decision-making, resilience planning, leakage reduction and network optimisation. It enables utilities to identify emerging issues and prioritise interventions before failures occur, improving both operational efficiency and customer service.

TR61 cost and carbon modelling software

TR61 is industry-recognised software for modelling the costs and carbon emissions associated with water and wastewater assets.

The software provides estimates for capital expenditure (CAPEX), operating expenditure (OPEX), whole-life costs, embodied carbon and operational carbon. Water companies use TR61 to compare investment options, evaluate asset strategies, support regulatory submissions and optimise projects for both financial and environmental performance.

The software is widely adopted across the UK water sector and supports evidence-based investment planning.
