Qootna Success Stories

See how our data-driven IT solutions translate into measurable, positive outcomes across the Water-Energy-Food Nexus.

Case Study: Water & Utilities

Non-Revenue Water by 15% with Real-Time Analytics.

The Challenge: Addressing Massive Non-Revenue Water Loss

A major regional utility was struggling with significant and costly Non-Revenue Water (NRW), driven by system leakage, inefficient distribution, and an inability to accurately track resource flow. The organization lacked a unified data architecture, relying instead on siloed operational and billing systems. This fragmented data made identifying and acting on leakage points virtually impossible, resulting in substantial financial loss, unnecessary energy expenditure, and a persistent inability to meet water conservation targets. They required a strategic IT solution to simplify this complexity and gain real-time visibility.

The Qootna Strategy: IT Integration and Predictive Analytics

Qootna initiated the project with a high-level IT Strategy & Advisory session to diagnose the utility's data landscape and integration needs. The core solution involved Systems Integration, where our team connected all 12 disparate monitoring, billing, and operational systems to establish a unified WEF Nexus data platform. This Custom Software platform provided real-time analytics and predictive modeling on water flow and pressure, enabling the utility to move from reactive repairs to proactive leakage intervention.

Data Clarity

Qootna integrated all 12 of the utility's disparate operational and billing systems. This achieved 100% data visibility into resource flow, eliminating data silos and enabling holistic water-energy nexus optimization.

Operational Impact

Through predictive analytics on flow and pressure data, the utility achieved a 15% reduction in non-revenue water (NRW). This single outcome saves the client millions annually and secures local water reserves.

Policy Enablement

The platform generates automated, policy-ready reports and provides real-time leakage alerts, ensuring the utility meets all national environmental and governance mandates with zero compliance risk.

Case Study: Circular Economy Optimization

Achieving 80% Waste Redirection with Custom Data Platforms.

The Challenge: Identifying High-Impact Waste Valorization

A major regional industrial conglomerate was struggling with massive, complex material flows and high waste disposal costs, hindering its commitment to sustainable circular economy goals. The company lacked a unified system to accurately track materials from ingestion to disposal, relying on siloed data that made identifying high-impact intervention points virtually impossible. This resulted in significant financial leakage, regulatory risk, and an inability to transparently demonstrate compliance with environmental mandates. They required a strategic IT platform to simplify complexity and reveal opportunities for resource reuse.

The Qootna Strategy: Custom Platform and Predictive Modeling

Qootna initiated the project with a deep IT Strategy & Advisory assessment to map the client's complex material flows and integration requirements. The core solution involved building a bespoke Circular Economy Tracker Platform. This system utilized Systems Integration to link IoT sensors, supply chain logistics, and production data. Our Data & Analytics then applied predictive modeling to automatically identify and flag all high-volume, reusable waste streams, providing the client with actionable intelligence for profitable redirection and resource optimization.

80% Waste Redirection

By mapping material flows and identifying reuse opportunities, Qootna helped the client achieve an 80% redirection of industrial waste from landfills, converting it into valuable input streams.

Supplier Sustainability Scoring

The custom platform integrated data from 300+ suppliers to provide automated, real-time sustainability scoring. This enabled procurement teams to prioritize ethical and circular sourcing partners.

Reduced Operating Costs

Optimized resource utilization and the elimination of unnecessary disposal fees led to an estimated 15% reduction in overall waste management operating costs within the first year of platform deployment.

Case Study: Energy & Grid Efficiency

Achieving 6% Performance Improvement with Predictive Grid Analytics.

The Challenge: Optimizing Urban Mobility and Energy Consumption

A major regional government entity faced the dual challenge of rising energy consumption across its urban infrastructure and deteriorating air quality metrics due to inefficient traffic flows. The city lacked the centralized IT tools to correlate real-time energy demand with mobility patterns, leading to unnecessary grid strain and suboptimal resource allocation. They required a data-driven solution capable of integrating multiple municipal data streams to drive strategic, sustainable urban planning.

The Qootna Strategy: Smart City Integration and Advisory

Qootna provided high-level IT Strategy & Advisory to define the architecture for a centralized Smart City platform. The solution leveraged Systems Integration to link disparate transport management, building energy management (BMS), and utility grid data streams. Our Data & Analytics team then built a predictive model that optimized traffic light sequencing based on peak grid load and mobility congestion. This provided the municipality with a real-time Urban Mobility Tracking system that directly reduced energy wasted in traffic and transportation.

6% Performance Improvement

The implementation of predictive analytics led to a 6% improvement in overall energy grid performance by dynamically balancing power demand based on real-time urban activity.

Air Quality Improvement

By optimizing traffic flow and reducing congestion-related idling time, the system improved key city air quality metrics by a measurable 6%.

Inter-Agency Governance

The integrated platform provided a single source of truth, enabling cross-departmental collaboration (Energy and Transport) and fostering data-driven inter-agency governance.
