Water supply disruption: protecting vulnerable groups quickly

A disruption to the drinking water supply directly affects the most vulnerable people. CrisisRadar helps water companies and local authorities to issue warnings quickly, organise emergency distribution and communicate clearly about boiling advice and restoration work.

The scenario

What happens

A double burst pipe has cut off the water supply to tens of thousands of households. In several local authorities, no water is coming out of the taps. Hospitals, care homes and families with babies need emergency supplies immediately. The fire service is starting to distribute water from the fire station. Within a quarter of an hour, everyone must know where emergency distribution points are, who is first in line, and what the boil-water advice is as soon as the water supply is restored. At the same time, healthcare providers, businesses and the press want reliable information.
