Immokalee Water & Sewer District Modernizes with Xylem Digital Solutions
Immokalee Water & Sewer District in Collier County, Florida, has partnered with Xylem (NYSE: XYL) and Core & Main for a comprehensive digital transformation initiative. The project includes deploying over 7,200 ally® residential water meters and implementing the Sensus FlexNet® communication network to enhance operational efficiency.
The modernization will enable remote meter management, water pressure tracking, and water quality monitoring. The district, serving 24,000+ year-round residents, will utilize the Xylem Vue platform to integrate data from multiple sources into a single platform, improving emergency response capabilities during hurricane season. The project, supported by State of Florida funding, aims to maintain affordable rates while managing seasonal population fluctuations that double water usage during harvest season.
Il Distretto Acqua e Fognature di Immokalee nella Contea di Collier, Florida, ha collaborato con Xylem (NYSE: XYL) e Core & Main per un'iniziativa di trasformazione digitale completa. Il progetto include l'installazione di oltre 7.200 contatori d'acqua residenziali ally® e l'implementazione della rete di comunicazione Sensus FlexNet® per migliorare l'efficienza operativa.
La modernizzazione consentirà la gestione remota dei contatori, il monitoraggio della pressione dell'acqua e il controllo della qualità dell'acqua.

Insights
The implementation of Xylem's digital solutions in Immokalee represents a significant technological advancement in water utility management. The deployment of 7,200 ally® residential water meters and the Sensus FlexNet® network creates a robust smart infrastructure that enables real-time monitoring and control. The Xylem Vue platform's integration capabilities will transform raw data into actionable insights, enabling predictive maintenance and efficient resource allocation.
The system's ability to remotely manage meters and control water pressure during hurricanes adds a important layer of resilience, particularly valuable in Florida's climate. This digital transformation positions Immokalee at the forefront of smart utility management, with potential for significant operational cost savings and improved service delivery, especially during seasonal population fluctuations.
This contract win, while modest in size, strategically positions Xylem in the growing smart water management sector. The project showcases Xylem's comprehensive digital solution portfolio and demonstrates the company's ability to secure government-funded infrastructure projects. The partnership with Core & Main enhances market penetration in rural utilities, a largely untapped market segment with significant growth potential as aging water infrastructure needs modernization.
The successful implementation could serve as a reference case for similar utilities, potentially leading to more contracts in the southeastern United States. While the immediate financial impact may be relative to Xylem's
Smart water technology to enhance operational efficiency and resilience
"This data and asset management project will significantly improve our operational efficiency," said Sarah Catala, executive director at Immokalee Water & Sewer District. "From a customer service perspective, the benefits of leak detection and cost control are immense. By connecting our drinking water and wastewater data under one network, we will provide even better service and transparency to our customers."
The district also plans to use the Xylem Vue platform to securely integrate data from multiple sources – such as the communication network, Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System, and weather sources – into a single platform. The real-time information will help staff respond efficiently to changes in daily work conditions and build operational resilience.
The district serves more than 24,000 residents year-round, but residential water use more than doubles as the population swells during the six months of harvest season. That is why local knowledge will be key for a successful project. Core & Main, a specialized distributor of water, wastewater, storm drainage, and fire protection products, will bring its on-the-ground expertise to support the transition.
