Using Shanshan County as the research focus, this study investigates drinking water safety in northwestern China and proposes measures for improving the efficiency of clean water projects targeting drinking water quality in the region. As new technologies such as the Internet and the Internet of things gain wider usage, urban and rural safe drinking water projects should focus on equipping projects, modularizing the equipment, improving project management using internetization, and developing intellectualization for increased Internet dependence. This study proposes modularization of the equipment for clean water projects for centralized and decentralized water supply programs. For management of such projects, this research proposes internetization in project management as well as intellectualization of construction, including establishment of management facilities, automation of water plant operations, intelligent control of clean water operations, and online intelligent water monitoring. This study integrates various information resources and investigates the implementation of intellectualized management of water treatment facilities through scientific advances and evaluates the potential of these approaches for increasing the quality of public service.
