For CEOs: facility cost and risk you can see across every site
Executives answer for margin, resilience and the commitments the company has made publicly. Aqueduct turns water, energy, air and equipment data from every site into a short list: where money is lost, which risks are rising and which results are real.


Facilities are a balance sheet line most boards cannot see into.
The numbers your role answers for
- Operating margin
Utilities and maintenance as a controllable cost.
- Resilience
Downtime, water risk and supply exposure across sites.
- Public commitments
Climate and water targets that investors and regulators track.

Executive calls the data informs
Where to invest
Fund sites and projects with measured, recoverable waste.
Which risks to escalate
Rising failures, water stress or penalty exposure by site.
Whether a program delivered
Accept results measured against a weather-normalized baseline.
How fast to scale
Start with one site, then expand on evidence.

Uploading 6 to 12 months of utility bills gives a weather-normalized baseline from day one. A top 25 US airport went live on Aqueduct in two weeks with 5,000 meter points. See the airport case study.
Aqueduct runs in fulfillment and logistics networks, a top 25 US airport, hospitals, commercial real estate, dairy and FMCG manufacturing. Each case study states its scope and whether the program is live or scoped. See case studies.
No. Aqueduct gives the team ranked, evidenced work and gives leadership a portfolio view of the result. The people who fix equipment stay the same; they spend less time searching. See for facility managers.
Each saving is measured against a weather-normalized baseline and priced at your own utility rates, and control measures carry command history showing they ran. Claims without that evidence are not reported as savings. See measurement and verification.
