Hitachi Consulting Launches End-to-End Water Management Solutions

DALLAS, Dec. 6, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Hitachi Consulting, a subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd (TSE: 6501) and a leading provider of IT consulting and management consulting solutions and services, has launched a comprehensive water management solution to accelerate enterprise sustainability initiatives. Hitachi Consulting Water Management Solutions tailor water management services with an innovative approach that includes detailed assessments, leading technologies and equipment implementation, as well as water management intelligence systems, and on-going management and maintenance.

As a Silver Sponsor of the upcoming American Water Summit and Big Data Workshop in Miami, FL, December 6-7, 2016, senior level representatives from Hitachi Consulting's water management team will be available to discuss how tailored solutions are developed. During the event, David Wechsler, Senior Vice President at Hitachi Consulting will be hosting a roundtable groupthink on Action Plans for Reducing Industrial Water Impact. 

"With the global demand for clean water doubling every 10 years, the need for more effective water management has never been greater. For many leading companies in the food and beverage, oil and gas, industrial manufacturing and pharmaceutical industries, smart water management is the key to future success," said Wechsler. "By utilizing an innovative water management program, organizations can significantly lower water costs and provide solutions for reducing water depletion and contamination."

"Companies that take proactive steps to reduce their water usage and waste can cut costs, protect their environmental reputation and get ahead of the competition," said Wechsler. "That's why you want an innovative, proven water management provider to help you on your journey to sustainability."
