Case Study: Waterscan achieves real-time water analytics and 95% faster reporting with Google Cloud Platform

Waterscan leverages the power of data to save water and money for customers

Waterscan, a UK commercial water management provider, was relying on Excel-based data models and static reports to manage its Waterline service, making it hard to scale, update data quickly, and give customers real-time visibility into water usage and savings. The company needed a more flexible business intelligence solution from Google Cloud Platform to support both internal teams and customer-facing analytics.

Google Cloud Platform, using Looker, helped Waterscan build embedded dashboards, a data model, and self-service analytics for Waterline in less than 100 hours of development time. The result was a 95% reduction in report development time, significant cost savings, and real-time analytics that helped 100% of Waterscan’s customers save water and money; one customer, Whitbread, reduced water usage by 30% at comparable hotels.
