In the months since Bluefield’s Water Industry 4.0: U.S. & Canada Digital Water Market Forecast, 2019-2030 was released, the global outbreak of COVID-19 has upended the U.S. & Canada water industry, requiring a fundamentally new set of assumptions about short- and long-term market growth.
As essential service providers, water & wastewater utilities remain operational amidst shelter-in-place and social distancing mandates, but their policies, priorities, and workforce arrangements have shifted seemingly overnight in response to the crisis.
As a result, Bluefield has revised our U.S. & Canada digital water forecast to better represent evolving market conditions in a post-COVID world.
In this new Research Note, Bluefield water experts analyze the differing outlooks and short- and long-term impacts of this pandemic for different digital water technology segments and project types.
