Hitachi Consulting, a subsidiary of Hitachi Ltd. and a provider of IT consulting and management consulting solutions and services, has launched a comprehensive water management solution to accelerate enterprise sustainability initiatives. Hitachi Consulting Water Management Solutions tailor water management services with an approach that includes detailed assessments, leading technologies and equipment implementation, as well as water management intelligence systems, and on-going management and maintenance.
“With the global demand for clean water doubling every 10 years, the need for more effective water management has never been greater. For many companies in the food and beverage, oil and gas, industrial manufacturing and pharmaceutical industries, smart water management is the key to future success,” says David Wechsler, senior vice president at Hitachi Consulting. “By utilizing a water management program, organizations can lower water costs and provide solutions for reducing water depletion and contamination.”
To deliver efficient and effective water management solutions, Hitachi Consulting leverages the Hitachi Group companies, such as Hitachi Infrastructure Systems (Asia) for design engineering, Hitachi Aqua-Tech Engineering for water intake solutions, and Hitachi Data Systems for business intelligence infrastructure. In addition, partners like Hitachi Capital America are able to provide water management financing. As a result, Hitachi Consulting delivers end-to-end solutions to monitor, treat, reduce usage, manage waste, comply with regulations and maintain water management infrastructures.
