    Overview

    The US commercial water and sewer utilities industry includes about 5,000 companies with combined annual revenue of $9 billion.

      Competitive Landscape Brief

      Demand depends on commercial and residential water needs, which are related to population growth and to the level of economic activity. The profitability of individual companies depends on efficiency of operations, because prices are fixed by public utility commissions (PUCs). Large companies have economies of scale in operations and the ability to raise capital for infrastructure improvements. Small companies can compete successfully through superior engineering or by serving smaller local markets. High barriers to entry, such as capital investments, make the industry somewhat resistant to competition; many companies operate as de facto monopolies.
