Overview

A major UK water utility faced critical operational constraints from 20+ fragmented legacy systems, hindering real-time decisions and scalability. Veriland provided a complete Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Azure solution. This cloud-first approach helps centralise asset management, field operations, and compliance.

Challenge

The client’s operational model had evolved into a complex environment of siloed systems, bespoke tools, and disjointed processes. These included a mix of mobile apps, spreadsheets, legacy reporting tools, and custom-built scheduling and notification platforms.

 

Key Legacy System Challenges

  • Fragmented Operations
    Siloed tools for scheduling, asset tracking, and reporting created workflow bottlenecks.

  • Security & Compliance Risks
    Unsupported legacy applications exposed vulnerabilities.

  • Limited Field Visibility
    Disconnected systems hampered leak detection and maintenance teams.

  • Manual Processes
    Spreadsheets and text-based notifications slowed critical response times.

  • Zero Scalability
    Inability to adopt IoT, AI, or real-time analytics.
