CIWEM Urban Drainage Group Annual Conference · Birmingham · 1–3 December 2026

What’s your toughest wastewater decision?

At CIWEM 2026, we’re inviting drainage and wastewater professionals to discuss their most challenging planning and investment decisions — from reducing storm overflow spills and managing surface water to optimising investment across entire catchments.

Whether you’re developing DWMP investment options, evaluating SuDS and network improvements, or balancing environmental performance with cost and deliverability, we’d welcome the opportunity to explore your challenges.

Visit us on Stand C7 to discuss how Decisio can support more integrated, evidence-based wastewater planning.

From insight to better wastewater decisions

Connecting strategy, investment and delivery across the whole catchment.

Water companies face increasingly complex planning challenges: reducing storm overflow spills, managing flood risk, improving water quality and controlling costs, while meeting regulatory and delivery commitments.

Decisio.water brings together catchment data, performance objectives and investment constraints to support a whole-system approach to wastewater planning.

Using a green-first approach, teams can evaluate sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) and blue-green infrastructure alongside conventional storage and network improvements. Rapid optioneering and investment optimisation enable organisations to compare interventions, understand trade-offs and identify the most effective investment portfolios.

As costs, priorities and delivery circumstances change, plans can be reassessed and re-optimised, connecting long-term strategic objectives with practical investment and delivery decisions.
