Domed civic building with columns
Government and public sector

Public estates that act on waste, and report it with evidence.

County, state and federal facilities: courthouses, offices, depots, campuses and bases. One platform that can replace or connect the building systems an agency runs, act on faults, and verify savings the way performance contracts and audits require.

Act on waste across the public estate, and report it with evidence that holds up.

Performance contracts

Baselines and M&V that stand up to review

  • Measured baselines

    Each facility is baselined against weather from meter data or 6 to 12 months of bills.

  • Verified savings

    Savings are measured against the adjusted baseline and stated in money, the way performance contracts need.

  • Monthly metrics export

    Verified metrics export every month, so audit and contract reporting starts from measured numbers.

Deferred maintenance

Which assets are drifting, and what it costs to wait

  • Drift ranked

    Chillers, boilers and air handlers are ranked by drift from baseline, so backlog decisions rest on data.

  • Early signs of failure

    Vibration, sound signature and energy drift schedule maintenance before a failure closes a courtroom or office.

  • Routed to your crew

    Findings arrive in your CMMS with the likely cause and recommended fix, then close when verified.

Water evaluations

Use and loss per facility, measured for audits

  • Facility water balance

    Supply reconciles against measured use per facility, so required water evaluations rest on real numbers.

  • After-hours waste

    Flow and load at night stand out against baseline, so after-hours waste gets fixed.

  • Data on site

    Deploy on-prem, with on-prem AI on NVIDIA infrastructure, where agency data must stay on site.

Old way vs the Aqueduct way

Running a public estate, before and after Aqueduct

The old way
  • Savings in performance contracts rest on engineering estimates.
  • Deferred maintenance is prioritized by whoever complains loudest.
  • Water evaluations are built from a year of bills at audit time.
  • After-hours load runs unnoticed in courthouses and offices.
  • Each facility runs a different system with different reports.
The Aqueduct way
  • Savings are measured against an adjusted baseline and verified at the meter.
  • Deferred maintenance is ranked by measured drift and cost.
  • Water evaluations rest on measured use per facility.
  • After-hours load is flagged and corrected with approval.
  • Every facility reports the same way on one platform.
Problems by outcome

What government and public sector teams are up against.

Water, energy, air and operations carry equal weight. Each one runs the same loop: monitor, measure, identify, act, verify.

02

Energy: Verified savings for performance contracts

Baselines and M&V that stand up to review.

03

Air: Public buildings held to target

Continuous records for occupied spaces.

04

Operations: Deferred maintenance, prioritized by data

Problem, solution, impact.

How Aqueduct resolves each problem for government and public sector, and what changes when it does.

The problemHow Aqueduct solves itThe impact
Water

Use and loss per facility, measured, for required evaluations and audits.

A live water balance across meters and sub-meters localizes the loss, routes the fix and confirms it closed at the meter.

Loss found from the balance, not the bill, and every fix verified.

Energy

Baselines and M&V that stand up to review.

Weather-normalized baselines per building and asset show the waste in money; schedules and setpoints adjust where control is enabled.

Savings stated in money and confirmed at the meter, not estimated.

Air

Continuous records for occupied spaces.

Air quality per zone, overlaid with occupancy, with ventilation raised when it matters and verified back in range.

Targets held during occupied hours, with the energy cost counted.

Operations

Which assets are drifting, and what it costs to wait.

Faults diagnosed in plain language and routed into your CMMS with the fix; early signs of failure schedule maintenance first.

Fewer reactive call-outs and closures confirmed by the equipment.

One incident, start to finish

One incident, from first signal to verified fix.

The public estate

Different buildings, different risks, one platform

Public agencies run some of the most varied estates anywhere. Each building type has its own operating pattern and its own failure that matters.

01 / 06

Courthouses

Heavy daytime occupancy, secure areas and holding cells, and public spaces that must stay comfortable during long sessions.

  • Zone air and comfort in courtrooms
  • Plant run hours against court schedules
  • Faults found before a session is disrupted

Evidence

What public sector rules ask for, and what Aqueduct supplies

Requirements differ by country, level of government and building. Aqueduct supplies measured evidence; agencies, auditors and contract parties make the determination.

Where waste hides

The systems behind deferred maintenance and wasted budget

Public buildings are often older than their systems' design lives. These are the places where drift becomes cost.

Central plant

Where it goes wrong

Aging chillers and boilers running at poor efficiency and staged for peak all year.

What we measure

Plant energy, flows and temperatures.

What Aqueduct does

Tracks efficiency against load and ranks plant by drift.

Air handlers

Where it goes wrong

Economizers stuck, dampers failed and fans at full speed.

What we measure

AHU points from the BMS and fan energy.

What Aqueduct does

Fault detection with likely cause.

Domestic water

Where it goes wrong

Leaks and running fixtures in large, older buildings.

What we measure

Main and riser meters.

What Aqueduct does

Building water balance and night flow alerts.

Lighting

Where it goes wrong

Lights on after hours and controls overridden.

What we measure

Lighting circuits per floor.

What Aqueduct does

After-hours load flagged.

Data rooms

Where it goes wrong

Small server rooms cooled hard all year by dedicated units.

What we measure

Cooling unit energy and room conditions.

What Aqueduct does

Finds overcooling and failing units.

Backup generators

Where it goes wrong

Test runs unrecorded and block heaters running all year.

What we measure

Run hours and auxiliary energy.

What Aqueduct does

Keeps the test record and counts the auxiliary load.

Irrigation and grounds

Where it goes wrong

Fixed schedules watering through rain.

What we measure

Irrigation meters with weather.

What Aqueduct does

Flags watering against rainfall.

How it works

How measured savings are verified for a performance contract

01

Set the baseline period

Twelve months of meter data or utility bills before the measures, regressed against weather and, where relevant, occupancy.

02

Agree the adjustments

Routine adjustments for weather and schedule are built into the model. Non-routine changes, like a new wing, are recorded as they happen.

03

Measure the reporting period

After the measures are installed, use is measured continuously, not sampled once a year.

04

Calculate savings

Savings are the difference between the adjusted baseline and measured use, stated in energy, water and money.

05

Watch persistence

Because measurement is continuous, savings that start to erode show up within weeks, not at the annual report.

How it rolls out

From a pilot facility to the whole estate

Agencies usually start with a pilot that answers a procurement or audit question, then extend through the same contract.

Questions

Common questions

Yes. On-prem AI on NVIDIA infrastructure, for sites that cannot send data out.

Yes. Measurement and verification is the Verify step: a baseline modeled before the claim, and the saving confirmed at the meter.

Installation is delivered through third-party partners. Milvian AI is a product company.

A free site survey of one facility. Bring 12 months of bills or a meter list.

Changes such as new floor area, new equipment or a change of use are recorded as they happen, and the baseline is adjusted according to the M&V plan agreed by the contract parties.

Yes. Plant is ranked by measured drift from its own baseline and by the cost of that drift, so the backlog is prioritized on data rather than on who reported last.

Yes. Main meters, clip-on electrical meters and wireless sensors give a working picture of a building without a BMS. Many depots and small offices start this way.

Usually twelve months, so every season is covered. Where meters are new, utility bills for the same period can be uploaded to build the first baseline.

Yes. Data is the agency's, and it can be exported at any time in standard formats.
