Tetra Tech Delta Projects

Tetra Tech partnered with the Louisville Metropolitan Sewer District in Kentucky to efficiently and sustainably manage sewer networks in real time using our CSoft® analytics platform. The solution uses data from real-time sensors, predictive modeling, and real-time controls (RTC) to optimize sewer network operations.
- Weather, sensors, and models feed analytics and automation
- More than $200 million in cost savings
- 95% overflow reduction
- 4-10 times lower cost than non-RTC alternatives
- 2 billion gallons of contaminated water prevented from entering rivers

A U.S. federal medical research organization disseminates the most comprehensive set of genomic data to the public and research community averaging more than 3 million users daily and is one of the top 5 most visited U.S. government websites. Tetra Tech’s cloud migration team successfully completed the transition of the complex web site to the cloud enabling scalable and robust access for millions of users.
- 3 million users daily
