Invenio Systems was founded in April 15 to provide innovative solutions to the water industryand its customers. The company was established to draw on founder expertise, to develop aninnovative ‘Stop.Watch’ system, a disruptive technology that allows a step change inidentification of the leakage-consumption boundary, finding previously undetectable leaks. Itwill both displace existing technology and open a currently unserved market.This technology uses non-traditional means to measure water flow within individualunmetered properties. Using a device mounted to the stop cock at the property boundary,Stop.Watch can accurately measure both water consumption and pipe leakage, and separateone from the other. This unique capability allows water providers to gain greaterunderstanding of where leakage is occurring across water networks and patterns ofconsumption by customers, with significant economic & efficiency benefits.Invenio have developed a proof of concept for Stop.Watch trialling this on individualproperties and small Consumption Monitor Areas (CMAs) of two UK water companies withremarkable results. A development of prototype grant will allow Invenio to scale to a fullprototype system and trial the technology on larger areas of a water network featuring close to1000 unmetered properties. Further R&D investment also allows Invenio to develop the dataanalytics coding that underpins the technology using real world data, validating it as apractical operational tool and evidencing commercial value.Invenio founders both have over 25 yrs experience working in water distribution networksand leakage management. As board members of the IWA Water Loss Specialist Group,contributors to the European Union report on water loss, and through research undertaken forUKWIR, they have unique insights into the commercial and technical challenges of waterloss. The company is well placed to develop Stop.Watch technology.

Invenio Systems成立于2015年4月，旨在为水务行业及其客户提供创新的解决方案。该公司的成立是为了利用创始人的专业知识，开发一种创新的“停止观察”系统，这是一种颠覆性的技术，可以在识别泄漏-消耗边界方面进行一步改变，发现以前无法检测到的泄漏。智能水表既取代了现有的技术，又开辟了一个目前尚未服务的市场。使用安装在物业边界的水龙头上的装置，Stop.Watch可以准确地测量用水量和管道泄漏，并将两者分开。这种独特的功能使供水商能够更好地了解供水网络中的泄漏位置以及客户的消费模式，从而带来显著的经济效益和效率效益。Invenio已经开发了Stop.Watch的概念验证，并在两家英国水务公司的个人财产和小型消费监测区（CMA）上进行了试验，取得了显著的效果。原型赠款的开发将使Invenio能够扩展到一个完整的原型系统，并在具有近1000个未计量属性的供水网络的更大区域上试用该技术。进一步的研发投资还使Invenio能够开发数据分析编码，该编码使用真实的世界数据支持该技术，验证其作为实用的运营工具并证明其商业价值。Invenio创始人都拥有超过25年的供水网络和泄漏管理工作经验。作为IWA水损失专家组的董事会成员，欧盟水损失报告的贡献者，并通过为UKWIR进行的研究，他们对水损失的商业和技术挑战有独特的见解。该公司在开发Stop.Watch技术方面处于有利地位。
