Imagine a city that manages critical services—like transportation, water, and electricity—as connected, efficient networks. Envision a community where systems use real-time data to create an awareness of emerging situations and shift operating paths within seconds to reflect optimal response. Imagine a place that is livable, sustainable, and resilient. This is Black & Veatch’s idea of a connected community.
Black & Veatch helps communities design and build their infrastructure to efficiently interconnect and integrate with its physical assets, like kiosks, street lights, cameras, utility systems and other street furniture, and related apps. Our insight helps communities get the desired functions and expected value of smart technologies. These solutions help leaders expand connected services, enhance city system efficiency, and heighten quality of life for citizens.
