From model build to optimised capital plans. Calibration, automation and training for water teams at utilities, councils and consultancies. Pin your model to reality with the data you already have. Know what your model can be used for, what it can't, and the roadmap to evolve it over time.
Easy Waters is deliberately niche: a small number of things, done properly.
Network models built and calibrated so they can be trusted for real decisions. Automation that strips the repetitive work out of modelling. Training that leaves your team able to do it themselves.
The mission is to raise the standard of hydraulic modelling across utilities, councils and consultancies by sharing what nine years of doing the work has taught, with the teams doing the work.
From no model at all to results you can put in front of your managers, and everything in between.
Model builds, updates and audits. Dry- and wet-weather calibration against the data your system already holds: SCADA, flow monitoring, rainfall and consumption records. Get clarity on how well the model represents reality, so you know exactly where it can be trusted and which system constraints are real.
InfoWorks ICM and WS Pro automation frameworks that strip out the repetitive work and connect the model to your tech stack. Model-to-map workflows, dashboards and system performance reporting your managers can actually read, presented in a way you are proud to put in front of a manager or your community. Documented and handed over so your team can run them.
Two skills lift a modelling team more than any other: knowing how far a model can be trusted, and turning the work they repeat into scripts. One-day courses on calibration, automation and master planning, plus training scoped to what your team actually needs. See the courses.
Master planning and growth servicing, options assessment and capital works prioritisation, levels of service and system performance benchmarking, inflow and infiltration characterisation, and water supply network modelling with demand allocation and pressure and capacity analysis. The planning work that sits around the model, sized to the job.
One-day courses you can mix and match, so the team learns what it actually needs and nothing it does not. Delivered on site or online. Priced per day or per seat, so the whole modelling team can sit in.
Can you trust your model?
Check a model against SCADA, flow monitors and the operators who run the network, and calibrate it. Review a model built by someone else and say, in writing, what it can be used for and what it can't. Learn what data to collect next so the model keeps improving.
Get your time back.
Got a task you do by hand more than once? Your team describes what they need in plain English, an AI assistant writes the Ruby, and they run it, check it and keep it. No scripting experience needed. Send two tasks that waste your time before the course and they get automated live.
From growth scenario to ranked options.
Growth scenarios, pipes over capacity by horizon year, pump station capacity, options ranked, tagged and mapped. Every line in the plan traces back to data the team can defend, presented so a manager reads it.
What tasks eat your budget?
Training built around the problems you get the most volume from. InfoWorks ICM or WS Pro, calibration method, modelling practice, reporting. The agenda comes from your team's questions, and the answers stay with the team.
Every course includes one follow-up call at 30 days to confirm the training covered what your team needed, and a CPD certificate for each attendee, 6.5 hours per course day.
Tell us where your team wants to build capability, or which problems keep coming back, and you will receive a scope, a price and available dates within two business days.
Get in touchAudit what exists and bring it to a current, calibration-ready state: network, boundary conditions, rainfall, assumptions documented.
Calibrate against the events in your monitoring record, not a single design storm. The fit is reported openly, station by station.
Capacity, hotspots, and system performance, mapped, dashboarded, and written up so engineering, operations, and executives can all use it.
Defined scope. Fixed price. Documented handover.
Civil engineer specialising in water and wastewater network modelling, from model build to optimised capital plans. Nine years across Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.
Alvaro has delivered model builds, calibration, master planning, and optimisation work for utilities and councils in Australia, New Zealand, and the US, and has trained engineers across the industry on InfoWorks ICM and WS Pro.
Easy Waters is his independent practice. He works directly with utilities and councils, alongside consultancies as a subconsultant, and trains modelling teams at all three.
Most utilities and councils treat a one- or two-day course as a low-value or sole-supplier purchase under their procurement policy. A quote, Certificate of Currency, ABN and CPD details are supplied for the file, and the course outline is written so a manager can forward it.
By default, courses run on a training network built around the real problems most utilities encounter. Your model can be used too, wherever possible, under an NDA. All training is practical and based on real-world problems, so it applies to any network.
A certificate of attendance is issued for each attendee, 6.5 hours per course day, for self-recorded CPD.
Training is available worldwide, on site or online in your working hours. Travel is quoted at cost. The goal is to raise the standard of modelling across the industry, wherever the network is.
For small councils, pricing is per seat. For larger teams, pricing is per day so the whole modelling team sits in. Groups are limited to eight people; beyond that, the course is split into two sessions.
No. Training is available to everyone: councils, utilities and consultancies. Client confidentiality is handled with an NDA.
If it fits, we book a call and scope it. You will hear back within 3 business days.
