What We Do
Validos supports utilities as a trusted extension of their team—helping them plan, navigate, and deliver complex initiatives with clarity and confidence.
We work alongside our clients to guide decision‑making, support execution, and provide independent oversight across transformation efforts. Our role flexes based on need—sometimes as advisors, sometimes as delivery partners, and often as an owner’s engineer—always representing the utility’s best interests.
From early strategy and planning through selection, delivery, and optimization, we help utilities reduce risk, protect investments, and achieve outcomes that last.
Who We Are
Validos is a women-owned business founded in 2018 with a business model designed to serve, advise, advocate and drive value through inventiveness, innovation, imagination, and insight. We chose the name “Validos” because a few hundred years ago in Spain, a “valido” was a trusted, valued, and believable confidante and advisor to the King. Today, many utilities and the providers that serve them have the vision to adapt, grow, and change their business, but require a “valido” to help them accomplish their goals.
Validos only works within the utility industry, and we are focused on leveraging our collective career experience and technology to assist utilities in finding, assessing, evaluating, contracting, implementing, and optimizing new and innovative technologies and services.
Our Mission
Our mission is to utilize the technologies we use in our everyday lives to connect companies and individuals and facilitate learning, communication, collaboration, and innovation. By utilizing technology appropriately, Validos believe we can be the underpinning engine to help expedite the achievement of some of the Water, Electric, and Gas industry’s future objectives and goals.
Our Vision
Our vision is to better serve all “rate payers” of the commodities we take for granted by streamlining processes, protecting utility investments, and finding the right solutions.
Validos is proud to be recognized as a Women's Business Enterprise (WBE), certified by the Supplier Clearinghouse in California, demonstrating that our business is majority-owned, managed, and operated by a woman. This esteemed certification not only highlights our dedication to diversity but also allows us to connect with public and private entities seeking to support and collaborate with diverse suppliers.
