“Cutting-edge demand management solutions…”

Econnics provides cutting-edge water demand management, social marketing, drought planning and project management services to water utilities, government and the private sector.

Too often, staff energy and scarce resources are wasted on ineffective demand management programs.

At Econnics, we believe in possibilities:
• it is possible to achieve significant and lasting reductions in a community’s water demands;
• it is possible to provide water conservation programs that are both cost effective and popular with the community and its leaders;
• it is possible to deliver quality projects on time and on budget.

Drawing from our international experience implementing community-based social marketing projects on the ground, we specialize in designing and delivering effective, comprehensive and integrated programs that achieve their intended results.

Our work is based on the 5 E’s of Demand Management:
• Education – provide the right information to customers - from classrooms to family rooms to boardrooms - to help people understand the ways they use water and make the right changes;
• Engineering – use of the latest techniques and technology - pressure and leakage management, third pipes, on-site treatment and reuse, rainwater harvesting, efficient fixtures and more;
• Enforcement – judicious use of regulatory tools like watering restrictions, building and plumbing codes, and product performance standards;
• Economics – provide economic incentives such as product rebates or volumetric water pricing;
• Encouragement – offer customers assistance with physical tools (shower timers, rain gauges, point-of-use prompts, etc.), tailored information, and ongoing support to maintain water use savings.

We work with you to find the “right mix” of the 5Es that best suits your community and your organization’s needs.
