Project summary
What did we solve?
A monitoring platform that collects IoT meter data and surfaces anomaly and loss-leakage signals early.
Meter data arrived late; loss and leakage were only spotted in monthly reports.
Each sprint ended with a working slice; decisions were made on data, not guesses. The same model can be adapted to your operation.
