About

A leading sluice gate manufacturer, Watch Technologies is theonly U.S. company that designs and manufactures verticallyintegrated water management equipment.

Jack Goldwasser and his team formed Watch Technologies(formerly Watch Enterprises) in 2005 after 30 years of successfultelemetry system installation and operations work in-house andas a contractor/consultant.

Jack established Watch Technologies (WT) as a separateenterprise from Mountain Energy, Inc., (the firm Jack establishedin 1978 to develop and own hydroelectric generation facilities), tomore accurately reflect his primary business focus: datacollection equipment, monitoring, and SCADA control systems forthe water conservation, water management and waste watercontrol, agricultural, marine, and hydroelectric industries -- thework Mountain Energy (MEI) primarily did since the early 1990’s. Watch Technologies helps organizations increase theeffectiveness and efficiency of their operations throughmodernizing and automation, saving time and money, as well asachieving water conservation.

History

Looking for solutions to field problems is the engine that drove MEI, Watch Enterprises, and now WatchTechnologies through the last three decades. Stream-flow studies required to evaluate the potential of asite to generate sufficient power to warrant development required Jack and his team to install equipment toaccurately measure and record surface water in very difficult situations. In many cases, designing systemsto do this meant looking for or creating cost-effective technologies to do the job for gathering accurate dataand getting it back to where decision makers could evaluate it. These projects caused Jack to innovatefrom the beginning.

Solving the three big problems in SCADA: keeping data collection cost-effective, getting accurate data, andgetting the data “home,” is the cumulative history of Watch Technologies, particularly since 2004. It has ledto a series of innovations over a short amount of time, and there will be more to come.

Jack has patented numerous data logging equipment (1997-2000) and electronic contact manufacturingassignments (2000-present) of our own.

HISTORY OF INNOVATING COST-EFFECTIVETECHNOLOGIES FOR FIELD PROBLEMS

History

By the mid-1980’s, Jack was being awarded contracts with federal, state, and commercial entities to dowhat MEI had done in the hydroelectric market -- data collection and telemetry systems -- but on a muchlarger scale, for example, drainage-wide ALERT Flood Warning systems, integrated weather stationsystems, and process and environmental monitoring at fish hatcheries.

In 1995, Jack won a contract with the US Navy Inactive Fleet to supply four of its fleets (160 vessels andfour Base Stations in Bremerton, Pearl Harbor, Norfolk, and Philadelphia) with radio-based monitoring andalarm systems. The project was a major success and remains in operation today. It also propelled MEI intomarine telemetry applications (1995-present) culminating in the Beaumont Reserve Fleet and USDOT –MARAD Central Region adopting MEI’s VesselWatch Marine Telemetry System for general use within itsjurisdiction by 2004. In the western U.S., Beaumont’s sister fleet, the Suisun Bay Reserve Fleet (SBRF) inBenicia, California, started a four year program to install a similar system in 2008.

Jack has found that solutions that work in the hydroelectric and maritime industries can be applied withgreat success in agriculture/irrigation, water management, waste water and water reclamation, andcathodic protection. He continues to deliver innovative solutions that save time and money to theseindustries.

JACK GOLDWASSER, FOUNDER AND CEO

Jack Goldwasser has 30 years experience in data collection, remotemonitoring, and SCADA systems in several industries, helpingorganizations and government agencies increase the efficiency oftheir operations.

Jack became skilled at field data collection and remote monitoringafter founding Mountain Energy Inc. (MEI) in 1978 to develop andown hydroelectric generation facilities. After designing and building a50-kilowatt interconnect hydroelectric facility in Cave Junction, OR,Jack acted as a consultant on numerous hydroelectric projects in theWestern Hemisphere, and gained expertise in the design,installation, and maintenance of very remote data collection systemsneeded for hydroelectric reconnaissance studies, licensing, andfinancing.

By the mid 1980's Jack was awarded large-scale data collection andtelemetry contracts with federal, state and commercial businessesfor projects including drainage-wide ALERT Flood Warning systemsfor flood control, integrated weather station systems, and processand environmental remote monitoring at fish hatcheries.
