Build-Own-Operate or BOO is an effective level of ownership for some Xylem customers. This ownership model allows a customer to spend more time focusing their attention on the end product and not the water processes that compose part of the utility or manufacturing process. Most manufacturing companies are not experts in water - they are experts in the products they are manufacturing.
A build-own operation is an on-site arrangement whereby Xylem designs, builds and staffs a water treatment facility on the customer's site. Xylem provides a guaranteed quantity and quality of water along with a performance guarantee. The customer simply pays for the water that's delivered.
This arrangement is extremely effective since most manufacturers or processors do not want to build their expertise in water management. Utilizing Xylem's expertise in the field of water management ensures the customer can focus on their product while Xylem focuses on the quality and quantity of water.
