Company
Overview
Founded 1975
Year Established
The company was established in 1975, marking the beginning of its long-standing presence in water and wastewater utility support.
Thousands of municipalities
Municipalities Assisted
The firm has supported thousands of municipalities in diagnosing and correcting collection-system leakage and monitoring flows.
  • Operating as part of IDEX Corporation, it benefits from global backing while focusing on specialized services.
  • The firm earned early recognition for pioneering accurate flow monitoring and leak detection in buried pipe networks.
  • Typical projects involve deploying FlowShark Doppler monitors, pressure/logging hardware, and sophisticated data‑analysis software.
  • Core sector specialisms include water, wastewater, utilities, municipal infrastructure, and infrastructure monitoring.
  • They support temporary and permanent flow monitoring, large-diameter leak detection, pressure logging, and SSES investigations.
  • As a division of a global group, ADS blends local service agility with corporate scale in product development and deployment.
Culture + Values
  • Constructively questioning behaviors and activities that run counter to our mission and values.
  • Digging beneath the obvious to uncover the real problems and provide the best solutions.
  • Displaying an infectiously energizing spirit and approaching challenges and change with positivity.
  • Giving up is not an option; our indomitable will to win and 100% effort sets us apart.
  • Challenging the status quo and identifying new ways to solve problems for both customers and internal processes.
  • Holding each other and ourselves accountable to follow through on commitments, own up to mistakes, and meet or beat deadlines.
