Turning Everyday Plant Data into Practical KPIs That Help Operators Act Sooner
You Have the Data. Now Put It to Work: Turning Everyday Plant Data into Practical KPIs That Help Operators Act Sooner
Date: Wednesday, October 28, 2026 Time: 11:00–11:45 a.m. Eastern Format: Online webinar Host: Water Environment Federation (WEF) Buyers Guide Presenters: Phil Lander, Juliana Mejia-Franco and AJ Barroso, inCTRL Solutions
What You’ll Learn
How water and wastewater utilities can transform existing operational data into practical performance indicators (KPIs). Discover ways to connect disconnected monitoring, maintenance and laboratory systems, improve operational visibility and use analytics to identify problems earlier and make better decisions.
Why This Matters
Water infrastructure is essential to public health, environmental protection and community resilience. Yet valuable operational information often remains isolated across different systems. Connecting that data can help utilities identify emerging problems, improve efficiency, reduce operational risks and make better use of existing technology investments.
Action Level
Primary purpose: Gain practical knowledge about connecting operational data, developing useful performance indicators and turning information into actionable intelligence.
What You’ll Leave With
A clearer understanding of how integrated data systems can improve wastewater operations, which performance indicators can help operators act sooner, and how utilities can begin moving from fragmented dashboards toward connected, evidence-based decision-making.

Practical Next Step
Register for the webinar and identify one operational challenge within an existing water or wastewater system. Assess whether disconnected data sources are delaying decisions, increasing costs or preventing early intervention. Use the session to identify practical steps toward connecting those systems and developing actionable KPIs.
Mobilized action pathway: Identify disconnected information → connect existing data sources → establish meaningful KPIs → improve operational decisions → measure results → share successful practices with other utilities.
