IBM helps Wave Inc build Smarter Township

IBM has announced that Wave Inc. has engaged IBM to provide a roadmap to make its greenfield township, Wave City, a Smarter Township. Located in Ghaziabad (Uttar Pradesh), Wave City is among the largest integrated township development projects in India's National Capital Region.

"With rapid urbanization in India, it is critical to build townships which are sustainable and have the required smart enablers and solutions to manage growth, while providing an improved quality of life for the residents. We are pleased to work with Wave Inc. in creating a smarter township and help them achieve their business vision," said Shankar Kalyana, Distinguished Engineer and Chief Technology Officer, Global Business Services, IBM India/South Asia.

Through this engagement, IBM will help Wave City create a township where all the amenities, such as clean water, energy, transportation, public safety, education, and healthcare, will be integrated and managed by smart devices using sensors and other intelligent communication tools. With all these devices connected to a central command centre, Wave City will be able to record and respond to events much faster and in a more coordinated manner. The roadmap also makes recommendations to help Wave City find ways to reduce running costs, reduce power usage, increase efficiency and improve quality of management across the township.

"At Wave City, it is our aim to build a township that provides a world-class living experience to all residents with the best-of-class services and amenities. At the same time, we want to ensure that Wave City is eco-friendly and self-sustainable. Today, Wave is a brand in itself and is also a name to reckon with in many fields, including real estate and property development. We are confident that IBM's expertise in building smarter cities across the globe will help us to achieve this vision," said Manpreet Singh Chadha, Joint Managing Director, Wave Inc.
