MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

It is well known that some of the nation's water infrastructure is more than 100 years old. In fact, 40 percent is more than 50 years old. Effectively managing assets is key to addressing our aging infrastructure challenges. During this webcast, Frost & Sullivan's leading Environmental Technologies Industry Analyst Eric Meliton will discuss pressing asset management trends in the municipal water and wastewater industries.

In addition, IBM clients, including the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District, will bring real-world examples on the use of IBM Maximo Asset Management to address regulatory compliance, aging infrastructure and geographic information system (GIS) integration. The District found spatially enabling enterprise asset management allowed the two systems to enhance one another and give a more complete picture of the asset's lifecycle than each system separately.

Why You Should Attend:

• Understand the risks and challenges associated with outmoded water infrastructure systems
• Discover the newest solutions to smart water management, particularly enterprise asset management
• Learn how the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District utilized next generation tools in meeting heightened demand
