Whole building water performance metrics are automatically calculated using a powerful analytics engine that enables users to analyze monthly and annual performance trends across meters, spaces, properties, and portfolios.

​
Methodology

The section below shows how consumption data is rolled up from in-metric water meters to calculate whole building performance metrics. Group 1000002837 (1)
1

All water meters associated with a space type are collected

  • For whole building performance metrics all in-metric meters are used.
2

Meter consumption is normalized into common units & calendar months

Consumption entries between meter activation & deactivation dates and property buy and sell dates are broken down and reconstituted into monthly values for each meter. Data outside of these boundaries is ignored.
3

Monthly consumption values are aggregated by meter type & subtype

Meters are grouped by subtype to enable performance metrics at multiple resolutions.
  • Potable - Mixed
  • Potable - Indoor
  • Potable - Outdoor
  • Reclaimed - Mixed
  • Reclaimed  - Indoor
  • Reclaimed - Outdoor
  • Well - Mixed
  • Well - Indoor
  • Well - Outdoor
4

Monthly consumption data is aggregated over rolling 12-month periods

For every subtype, monthly normalized values are rolled up to provide monthly & annual metrics for every possible 12-month reporting period.
5

Values are further rolled up into portfolio-level insights.

Monthly and annual consumption values are aggregated across all properties to enable portfolio-level views.
Performance metrics are automatically calculated using a powerful analytics engine that enables users to analyze monthly and annual performance trends across meters, spaces, properties, and portfolios.
