Who We Are

We are a revolutionary water infrastructure development and asset management company established in 2018. Our mission is to create economic and sustainable outcomes through effective water stewardship.

 

We invest our capital to design and construct cutting edge water supply systems that substantially reduce our clients’ costs by delivering low-cost alternative water instead of resource strained potable water, then we maintain those systems for our clients.

Maverick Water Group Discusses Growth and Sustainable Water Solutions

WHAT WE DO

We evaluate a variety of alternative water infrastructure opportunities that enable us to hold true to our values and that offer a variety of positive outcomes for all stakeholders, especially our clients. With the help of our partners, we design holistic systems that integrate alternative sources of water and/or deploy smart technology and controls to meet and exceed the needs through the life cycle of each water system.

HOW WE’RE DIFFERENT

We feel a deep responsibility to be stewards of the land and its associated resources, especially water. Supplying alternative water and/or deploying best in class technology to manage water usage is not what makes us unique. What makes us unique is that we hold strategic partnerships and provide 100% of the capital required for projects. Our clients realize many benefits by allowing Maverick to make large investments in new infrastructure, pay for all capital, operational, and maintenance costs along with managing the day-to-day operations of these systems.
