What infinitii flowworks satisfies in a software requirement
Written for whoever is drafting or responding to a bid that asks for a monitoring and analysis platform alongside the engineering and installation work.
Why this page exists
Municipal and utility procurement usually bundles the work: instrumentation, installation, and a software solution to make the data usable, as one package. The firm bidding is rarely a software company, so the software section is the part that has to be sourced.
This page sets out plainly what infinitii flowworks covers, so it can be assessed against a requirements list without a sales conversation first.
Commonly specified requirements
Grouped the way requirement lists are usually written.
Data acquisition and integration
Sensors and loggers from any manufacturer; SCADA integration; automated ingestion from external web API sources; bulk historical import; hardware neutrality with new sources added on an ongoing basis. An extensive API in both directions for exchanging data with other systems and publishing to external websites.
Near real-time monitoring
Map-based network view with live values and alarm state; site detail views; custom real-time displays; data available as it arrives rather than on an export cycle.
Alarming and notification
Configurable alarms on any channel; notification by web, email, SMS and voice; notification schedules; dwell times; acknowledgment and alarm history; user self-service without IT involvement.
Data quality and auditability
Non-destructive editing with the raw record preserved; corrections published as a separate channel; complete edit history of what changed, by whom and when; automated sensor anomaly detection.
Analysis
Inflow and infiltration analysis including average dry weather flow (ADWF) and return-period estimates; automatic dry weather pattern and storm event identification; rainfall derived infiltration and inflow (RDII) by catchment; intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curve analysis; rainfall mass balance, statistics and intensity; stage–discharge rating; Manning and Froude curve fitting; event query by threshold and duration.
Reporting and distribution
Scheduled daily, monthly and yearly summary reports; a drag-and-drop custom dashboard builder requiring no development, with chart, map, table, alarm and note widgets, simple and multi-site modes, threshold-filtered network tables, and per-group sharing; bulk data export.
Extensibility
User-authored calculated channels in Python and R executing against live incoming data; Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) and EPANET model integration through FACE Pro; predictive channels; API access to measured and calculated channels for onward delivery to other applications and public-facing sites.
Access, security and administration
User accounts, groups and role-based permissions; site-scoped access for contractors; view and edit rights managed separately; multi-factor authentication (MFA) where an organisation requires it; secure browser access with no client installation; mobile access for field staff.
Deployment and commercial notes
infinitii flowworks is delivered as a hosted application reached through a browser, with mobile access for field staff. There is no client software to install and no infrastructure for the utility to run.
Pricing is quoted per deployment rather than published, because the range between a handful of sites and several thousand is wide enough that a list price would mislead. Tell us the scope and we will give you a number you can put in a bid.
