Case Study: A partnership between Talbot’s Product Sales & Maintenance (PS&M) Unit & TalbotAnalytics Team
In support of a global Beverages company (company) to meet its water quality and compliance objectives across multiple African sites, Talbot has delivered an integrated solution combining specialist hardware and a centralised digital platform.
As part of this solution, Talbot’s PS&M unit supplied and supported the installation of autosamplers across key company sites. These autosamplers are vital in ensuring consistent and automated sampling of effluent discharge, significantly improving the reliability and traceability of compliance data.
To ensure these devices operate optimally, the PS&M team:
- Facilitates on-site installation and retrofitting
- Provides ongoing maintenance through Talbot’s Maintenance Management System, enabling real-time service tracking and alerts
- Ensures quick turnaround on spare parts and breakdown support via Talbot’s supplier partnerships
Complementing the hardware, Talbot developed and deployed the TalbotAnalytics platform specifically for the company. This powerful digital tool pulls data directly from the autosamplers and other site instruments, consolidating water quality data into a single, easy-to-use dashboard.
Through TalbotAnalytics, the company benefits from:
- One platform for all sites – eliminating the need to collect data from multiple stakeholders
- Real-time alerts – enabling prompt action on non-conformances
- Executive-level dashboards – offering high-level insights for head office reporting
- Improved accuracy and efficiency – reducing manual effort and supporting data-driven decision-making
This partnership showcases Talbot’s ability to deliver end-to-end water quality solutions, combining technical hardware, maintenance excellence, and digital innovation — all tailored to meet the global beverages company operational and sustainability goals.
