PVF for municipal waterworks

Our solutions begin with pipe, valves and fittings you can rely on. Through our distribution network, nationwide delivery, vendor relationships and local market expertise, we help underground utility and municipal services address every job. With industry-leading fill rates, we can provide ductile iron, PVC and HDPE PVF and much more that meet local requirements and specifications.

Automated metering technology for water distribution

Ferguson partners with leading vendors across the country for automated metering equipment, and our Meter & Automation Group can provide continuous support for public and private utilities and municipalities from planning to purchase, installation and beyond. Increase efficiency with advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) and improve cash flow with automatic meter reading (AMR).

IoT solutions for wastewater

Gain visibility from the collection system to the treatment plant with Ferguson IoT remote monitoring solutions. Flow monitoring applications assist with billing and custody transfer as well as excessive inflow and infiltration (I&I). Keep a close eye on wet weather events from lift station and rainfall monitoring to combined and sanitary sewer overflows.

GPS data collection solutions

Building the foundation you need to make data-driven decisions starts with high-accuracy GPS data collection. Using any mobile device, your team can capture field assets with our user-friendly tools. Our software platform then integrates seamlessly to build or maintain an accurate geographic information system (GIS) to better manage your water assets.

Artificial intelligence solutions

When assessing pipe condition, go beyond what the human eye can see with artificial intelligence and machine learning. VODA.ai uses predictive analytics and risk modeling so you can focus your resources on the pipe most likely to fail. We can help you zero in on aging infrastructure, gain visibility after utility consolidation, and hone your capital planning, emergency response and performance optimization.
