Wasserversorgung Sigriswil

What Wasserversorgung Sigriswil does

Wasserversorgung Sigriswil is the municipal drinking water supply department of Einwohnergemeinde Sigriswil, a public-sector government entity (Einwohnergemeinde) located in the Canton of Bern, Switzerland, with registered office at Kreuzstrasse 1, CH-3655 Sigriswil. It operates as a statutory monopoly provider of essential public services — chiefly potable water supply — to the residents of the municipality of Sigriswil, which comprises 11 villages (Sigriswil, Merligen, Gunten, Aeschlen, Tschingel, Schwanden, Ringoldswil, Justistal, and others). Beyond water supply, the surrounding municipal administration delivers waste management, construction permits, civil registry, tax collection, public safety, and tourism support services to local residents.

The organization's digital service surface is built on the Weblication CMS CORE Business platform (provided by Scholl Communications AG and operated by Talus Informatik AG), which powers the municipal website (www.sigriswil.ch) and the Online-Schalter (digital service counter). The product portfolio includes the Talus Raum Management & Reservationssystem for facility bookings, an interactive Entsorgungskalender (waste disposal calendar), eBau and eUmzug electronic government portals, SBB day pass sales, and a newsletter/RSS communication infrastructure. The Bauabteilung (construction department) oversees water infrastructure. Internal headcount dedicated to the water supply function is reported at 1-10 employees.

The entity is funded through municipal taxes and recurring service fees (water tariffs, waste disposal fees, administrative fees) collected from residents; financial statements are not publicly disclosed in the manner of private companies. There is no parent company, no venture or private equity involvement, and no subsidiaries. Strategic activity is limited to incremental service digitization, a new municipal administration building (Neubau Gemeindeverwaltung) under construction, and community programming (Sigriswiler Heimattage 2026). The municipality maintains formal Gemeindepartnerschaften (inter-municipal partnerships) referenced on its website. There is no mobile app, no commercial customer base, and no external market footprint beyond the single municipal jurisdiction.

• Energie Wasser Bern (ewb): ewb is the multi-utility serving the city and region of Bern with electricity, water, heating, and telecom. It is the dominant water provider in Canton of Bern, the same canton as Sigriswil, making it the closest large-scale comparable for a municipal water operation.
• Services Industriels de Genève (SIG): SIG is Geneva's municipal multi-utility providing water, energy, and gas services. It is comparable as a publicly-owned integrated water operator under Swiss law, though at a much larger scale.
