About Klir

Klir is the Operational Data Hub for water utilities — the connected center where sampling, monitoring, and operational workflows finally live in one place. For years, Drinking Water, Wastewater, and Pretreatment programs have been managed in fragments: spreadsheets on shared drives, LIMS exports in email chains, site details in notebooks, and critical knowledge locked in people’s heads. That fragmentation slows decisions, introduces risk, and makes it harder for teams to stay aligned.

Klir replaces that fragmented world with a single, connected operational hub. Sampling plans, lab results, fieldwork, site data, tasks, schedules, and system insights all flow through one source of truth, giving teams a clearer view of what’s happening across their system. With everything connected, utilities gain earlier visibility into changes, tighter coordination across shifts and departments, and a more dependable way to run day-to-day operations.

Designed for the realities of water operations — fast-moving priorities, regulatory expectations, and aging institutional knowledge — Klir gives teams the clarity, continuity, and confidence to act sooner and with fewer gaps. Whether you’re managing sampling routes, validating results, overseeing industrial users, or coordinating work across plants, Klir brings the entire operational picture together so decisions move faster and with more certainty.
