Smart Sewer Infrastructure Management

The smart management of sewer infrastructure

The smart management of sewer infrastructure is critical for public health, environmental protection and sustainable service delivery.

Municipalities must monitor, plan and manage sewer networks in real time to prevent blockages, manage capacity, and reduce overflows. IMQS’s GIS-enabled platform makes this possible.

Challenges We Help Solve:

  • Frequent blockages and sewer overflows

  • Infrastructure failure due to ageing networks

  • Inaccurate or incomplete sewer asset data

  • Limited integration between engineering and financial systems

  • Difficulty prioritising rehabilitation and upgrades

Enabling Smart Sewer Decisions

Optimise sewer planning and operations with spatial tools that deliver actionable, network-wide insights.

Our Holistic Approach
& Core Service Areas

The IMQS Sewer Infrastructure and Sewer PRP modules provide a unified, spatially rich view of your reticulation network.

We help municipalities build resilient, efficient and transparent sanitation services through proactive planning, monitoring and investment.

Our core service areas include:

Network-Wide Spatial Integration

Visualise asset condition, capacity and flow paths.

Operating Scenarios & Masterplanning

Test future growth, upgrades and operating constraints with a spatial Future Network Model.

Upstream/Downstream & Connected Stands

Trace sources and impacts, identify affected customers, and manage outages or incidents.

Sewer PRP: Risk & Failure Scoring

Prioritise renewals using Likelihood, Frequency and Consequence of Failure with cost modelling.

Integrated Reporting

Combine GIS, engineering and billing data for clear, actionable insights.

Our Core Advisory Capabilities

IMQS helps municipalities digitise, manage and optimise their entire sewer system with advisory views tailored to engineers, planners and finance teams.

Network Digitisation & Data Modeling
Convert your physical network into a digital twin with hydraulic integration. Visualise capacity, flows and critical segments for future upgrades.
mSCOA & Billing Integration
Link engineering data with financial systems to ensure regulatory compliance, accurate costing and transparent reporting.
Pipe Prioritisation & Cost Modelling
Use LF/FF/CF risk scoring to identify failing mains and build costed replacement plans aligned with budgets.
Sewer Hydraulic Analysis & Capacity Planning
Balance current loads with future development using scenario analysis, GIS overlays and upstream/downstream tracing.
