Google is set to offer Mekorot’s mclock system, a SaaS software that allows for the monitoring and management of infrastructure facilities. This solution provides remote access to operational data for municipal and public infrastructure companies such as water, electricity, and gas corporations. It replaces traditional monitoring methods and is compatible with various infrastructure sectors including electricity, fuel, and communication.
Gil Groskop, Deputy for Technology at Mekorot, announced that Google will make their solution available through its marketplace, making remote operations easier. Initial interfacing will involve assistance from Mekorot, but after that, the system can be operated independently. The system will be available on the marketplace pending approval from Google.
Mekorot has previously worked with technology companies like Microsoft to develop a cloud for water sector statistical data. This collaboration aims to share knowledge on precipitation, consumption, and climate crisis research with academics and researchers.
Shay Mor, Director and Head of Public Sector & Defense at Google Cloud Israel, stated that implementing this cloud technology will drive innovation within Mekorot and set industry best practices for other water treatment organizations.
