23 NOVEMBER 2025 WorldWide Drilling Resource® Managing Water the Smart Way Adapted from Information by Resource Monitor™ Barco Well Service specializes in well installation, pump repairs, and water system management for a diverse clientele, including residential homeowners, commercial enterprises, and municipal organizations. Their customer base includes everything from individual households to expansive properties such as golf courses, churches, and community associations. Prior to using Resource Monitor, Barco Well Service faced numerous challenges: j Insufficient Water Usage Data: The lack of detailed insights hindered customers’ ability to plan effectively and detect issues promptly. j Expensive Manual Meter Readings: Technicians were dispatched to properties to manually read meters, costing customers $150 per visit while Barco only earned a profit of $20-30 under ideal circumstances. j Unnecessary Service Visits: Roughly 20-30% of inquiries from commercial clients were merely to confirm whether wells were operational, necessitating technicians to travel to sites just for status checks. j Inaccurate Water Usage: Estimates were based on pump capacity and operating time, leading to potential inaccuracies. j Unsafe Meter Locations: Certain meter placements posed safety risks for technicians. j Human Error in Readings: Manual reading mistakes led to confusion among customers. In response, Barco Well Service collaborated with Resource Monitor to include digital monitoring, to provide: j Real-time Water Data: Digital meters provide continuous tracking of water usage, accessible via mobile app. j Remote Monitoring Capability: Allows for well status checks from any location without needing on-site visits. j User-friendly Application: Designed for ease of use for both Barco’s staff and their customers. j Quick Installation Process: Hardware that integrates seamlessly with existing well systems. The implementation of Resource Monitor is smooth, featuring fast installation, minimal disruption, and straightforward setup. With Resource Monitor, Barco Well Service shifted from a reactive to a proactive approach in water management. This transition has led to the reduction of unnecessary service calls, prevention of equipment malfunctions, and delivery of unprecedented insights into water systems, ultimately enhancing customer service and boosting profitability.
