Leaks threatened to overwhelm Yorkshire Water with regulatory fines, customer complaints, and maintenance costs. Then, with the help of Capula, an automation and real-time integrator in the United Kingdom, it implemented new AVEVA PI System technology. Now Yorkshire is cutting costs, meeting regulatory goals and serving customers more efficiently.
“[AVEVA] PI System’s asset framework was a key enabler for the project and allowed it to be realized fully and automated in its data structure”
