OpenFlows is widely used by municipalities, cities, other local governments to manage, maintain, and upgrade their water and sewer systems. These local governments usually outsource work to consultants and don't do any modeling work in-house. 

There are many benefits to bringing some work in-house which include saving money on smaller projects, getting a better understanding of their systems, being able to react in emergency situations, and being able to review modeling work done by consultants. OpenFlows software is easy to learn and any municipality can pick it up quickly!

What you will learn: 

  • The value of OpenFlows for local governments
  • The basics of OpenFlows Water and Sewer
  • Model building and getting started with OpenFlows Water and Sewer
