Xylem acquires majority stake in Idrica

Global water solutions company Xylem has announced that it has acquired a majority stake in Idrica, a leader in water data management and analytics, to empower water utilities with intelligent solutions for their most critical challenges.

Xylem Vue, which combines Xylem’s existing digital water solutions portfolio with Idrica’s technology platform, empowers customers to address critical challenges such as water scarcity and aging infrastructure with real-time insights.

Xylem said the move will enable the two companies to further integrate their solutions and create a simpler, more powerful customer experience.

“Deepening our partnership with Idrica is a critical piece of our strategy to deliver intelligent solutions to our customers,” said Matthew Pine, CEO of Xylem. “Together, we can help them see deeper into their networks and use insights to solve long-standing problems like water loss more effectively and affordably than ever before.”

According to Jaime Barba, CEO of Idrica and head of Xylem Vue, “Every day, water utilities are challenged by complex systems that make it difficult to use data to make decisions. Our deeper partnership will further enable water and wastewater utilities to connect and manage their digital assets and streamline operations in a simple, secure and holistic view.”

Over the past year and a half, water utilities worldwide have deployed the Xylem Vue integrated software and analytics platform to optimize their infrastructure, lower costs, and adapt to new conditions.
