Submit -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BUILD A WATER UTILITY DIGITAL TWIN ROADMAP BUILD A WATER UTILITY DIGITAL TWIN ROADMAP ANALYST PERSPECTIVE DIGITAL TWIN IS NOT A BINARY CONCEPT Digital twin technology has long been a prominent topic in water utility industry conferences and utility working groups worldwide. While its potential benefits are enticing to water utility leaders, the roadmap to actualizing this goal often remains unclear. Digital twin is far from a binary concept. It cannot simply be purchased off the shelf and developed overnight. Rather, it represents a journey of continuous learning and development across multiple capabilities within the digital twin domain, as this research highlights. Most water utilities have made recent progress in deploying elements toward achieving an ideal digital twin target state. However, what often remains lacking is a holistic view of the digital journey. Each water organization’s business drivers vary, and consequently, so does its digital twin journey. The starting point in this journey can vary depending on factors like leadership sponsorship, technology maturity, and cultural readiness for managing significant digital transformation programs. Regardless of the chosen approach, it is critical for water utility thought leaders to maintain a focus on the bigger picture while planning their journey, even if the pathways diverge. The purpose of this research is to offer a valuable and tactical framework for water utility leaders, assisting them in their digital twin roadmap planning.

COMMON OBSTACLES * Current industry research is too high level to provide actionable guidance in navigating the intricate landscape. * Lack of a robust framework to guide your roadmap development that balances desired business outcomes and the necessary investments. * Insufficient understanding of existing gaps in people, process, and technology to support your roadmap development. INFO-TECH’S APPROACH * Offer a comprehensive digital twin capability matrix, encompassing diverse maturities and essential capabilities to help you navigate the complex ecosystem. * Introduce a pragmatic framework for developing roadmaps, helping alignment of desired business outcomes with necessary investments in people, process, and technology. * Provide a practical roadmap building tool with prepopulated sample data, empowering you to start planning your pathways continuously and iteratively. INFO-TECH INSIGHT A compelling digital twin roadmap aligns with the organizational vision, bridging current and desired states. Crucially, its modular design and comprehensive scope can drive meaningful progress toward desired outcomes throughout the transformation journey. WATER CHALLENGES DEMAND EFFECTIVE WATER MANAGEMENT Water utilities are struggling to provide clean and safe water for communities. The increasing urgency and severity of global water challenges call for effective water management. While progress has been made in recent decades, water utilities must still do more work to fully leverage the power of digital solutions. WATER DEMAND INCREASES DUE TO RISING URBAN POPULATION GROWTH 40% of estimated shortfall between forecasted demand and available supply of water by 2030 (World Bank, 2022). AGING INFRASTRUCTURE CONTRIBUTES TO WATER LEAKAGES AND DISRUPTS SERVICES 27% increase in water main breaks between 2011 and 2018 in the US and Canada, according to a comprehensive water asset management study (Utah State University, 2018). LOOMING SCARCITY OF NATURAL WATER RESOURCES PUTS STRAIN ON WATER SUPPLY 1 IN 4 children will face extreme water shortage by 2040 (World Bank, 2022). EXTREME WATER EVENTS ELEVATE WATER DEMAND AND RAISE WATER QUALITY CONCERNS 51% of natural disasters worldwide are floods and droughts, with floods being the most common occurrences in 2022 (CRED, 2023). DIGITAL TWINS ARE FAST BECOMING A STRATEGIC PRIORITY FOR SOLVING WATER CHALLENGES Water utilities must accelerate their digital transformation journey facing the escalating global water challenges. Following the success witnessed in other industries, digital twin has emerged as a sought-after digital transformation initiative within the water industry. DIGITAL TWIN FOR WATER "A digital, dynamic system of real-world entities and their behaviors using models with static and dynamic data that enable insights and interactions to drive actionable and optimized outcomes."

THE SCOPE OF DIGITAL TWIN CAN VARY SIGNIFICANTLY A digital twin can be a digital model of an object, a system, a process, or an infrastructure. Technology exists to create digital twins at the component level all the way up to the infrastructure level, which will typically be a representation of several individual digital twins integrated together. Digital twins are of several types depending on the real-world object or system they represent. COMPONENT TWINS A component twin represents a single part of an object or system. E.g. digital twin of a filtration system within a water treatment plant ASSET TWINS An asset twin represents an object or system. This may be a single twin of the object that has multiple components, or it can be comprised of several twins, each representing a component in the object. E.g. digital twin of a water reservoir. SYSTEM TWINS A system twin represents the system and, in some cases, the environment in which the asset operates. E.g. digital twin of a pump station that has low efficiency. PROCESS TWINS A process twin will represent all the systems involved in the execution of that process. E.g. digital twin of the water main flushing process simulation. INFRASTRUCTURE TWINS An infrastructure twin represents a collection of system and process twins and covers the entire ecosystem at infrastructure level at engineering grade accuracy. E.g. digital twin of the entire water distribution network. Source: GlobalLogic, n.d. THE INTELLIGENCE OF DIGITAL TWIN CAN VARY SUBSTANTIALLY Digital twin is not a binary concept. The level of intelligence in a digital twin can vary, depending on the combined maturity across the following seven areas. DATA FABRIC The extent to which a unified, standardized, and consistent enterprise data platform enables broad integration and accessibility. SPATIAL/PHYSICAL PRESENTATION The level of accuracy and fidelity of digital depiction of the physical environment. OPERATIONAL SYSTEM INTEGRATION The extent of closed-loop communication and collaboration among different systems. EDGE/IIOT/SENSORS INTEGRATION The volume and coverage of real-time data available for integration with real-time decision-making platforms. MODELLING AND PLANNING The extent of real-time modelling capabilities that inform short-term and long-term planning. CONTROL CAPABILITY The degree of self-optimized real-time control capabilities DECISION-MAKING The degree to which data-driven actionable insights benefit from predictive and prescriptive capabilities A DIGITAL TWIN CAPABILITY MODEL IS MULTIDIMENSIONAL The scope and maturity of your digital twin renders it a multidimensional and complex journey.

You don’t have to finalize your storyboard all at once. Developing a roadmap on how to achieve your vision is essential for quickly realizing benefits. TACTICAL PLANNING FOR VISION REALIZATION PROVES CHALLENGING ORGANIZATIONS ENCOUNTER DIFFICULTIES IN EXECUTION WHEN THEY LACK EFFECTIVE PLANNING. 85% of organizations have plans for digital twins. 35% of organizations have started in this direction. 8% of organizations have enacted their plans. Source: Siemens, 2021 RIGHT-SIZING THE SCOPE TO MOVE THE NEEDLE HAS BECOME A CRUCIAL PLANNING CHALLENGE. MANAGE STAKEHOLDER EXPECTATION AND UTILITY WORKER RESISTANCE Inspired by the great potential of digital twin technology, many utility leaders find themselves brainstorming various use cases. However, seasoned utility workers may be less enthusiastic about digital intrusions to their decades of status quo. Effectively managing the diverse expectations of different users could pose a challenge. OPTIMIZE OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES ALONG WITH DIGITAL TWIN MATURITY The inclination to standardize existing operating procedures could hinder the development of digital twin capabilities. It is crucial to establish an iterative two-way feedback loop approach to fine tune and optimize operational procedures along with your digital twin journey to develop maturity. This process takes time, discipline, and a willingness to remain adaptable. OVERCOME TECHNICAL COMPLEXITY ACROSS BOTH IT AND OT DOMAINS The digital twin marketplace within the water industry is still evolving, with no dominant or converged vendor offerings yet. Water utilities frequently encounter technical challenges across both IT and operational technology (OT) domains including Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) data standardization, data quality, legacy communication network, and integration challenges with existing IT and OT systems, and complexity in architecture. JUSTIFY YOUR BUSINESS CASE FOR SCALABLE DEPLOYMENT Each water utility faces unique challenges in delivering safe and clean water. The necessity and urgency to adopt digital twin technology often drives the business case. However, utility practitioners typically lack a framework to break down the vision into modular components that would support comprehensive business case development and enable scalable deployment beyond pilot demonstrations.
