From pilot to city-wide coverage in 18 months, 0% churn
Oeiras started with a handful of sensors at its most flood-prone drainage points. Eighteen months later the network covers the whole municipality, and every contract has renewed.
How it unfolded
- 2023 Q4
Pilot: first sensors installed at recurring flood points, with no civil works or cabling.
- 2024 Q2
First anticipated events; civil protection adds the alerts to its standard operating procedure.
- 2024 Q4
Expansion to 22 sensors across the municipality, including drains and stream crossings.
- 2025
Contract renewed and extended; Oeiras becomes a reference site for neighbouring municipalities.
Why it matters
Oeiras is the playbook: start small where the problem is known, prove lead time, then scale. Zero churn across the period reflects how quickly the alerts became part of daily operations.
