Abstract

Water losses and maintenance difficulties are some of the common problems faced by the current water pumping infrastructure systems globally. In South Africa, water pumping infrastructures have significant management challenges. A centralised smart digital water management system could be a solution, not only for improving the old water infrastructure but also to solve the global water crisis. The implementation of data-centric water pumping infrastructure makes it easy to disseminate an assets' data. Organisations have access to data on-demand, in real-time, even if the system is disrupted. Integrated business processes through systems enablement, such as Enterprise Resources Planning (ERP) is adopted in conjunction with having an effective maintenance management system in place. The adoption of an Integrated System Architecture Model allows data security, control, digitalisation, monitoring in real-time, improve the overall productivity, lower operating costs, and integrate all business operations, including maintenance, engineering services, management and create an environment that is driven by innovative strategies to monitor assets remotely.
