In this work the problem situation of the water supply to Mexico City is treated from a holistic perspective, by identifying and analyzing the most meaningful problems, which highly impact to the quality of the water service. Firstly, some of the main characteristics of the hydraulic system are exposed, so that anyone might have an idea of the origin of the current problems and the difficulty to arrive at real solutions. Then, the most relevant problems are identified and shown in two categories, the first category includes the most outstanding problems. Later on the first category problems are described in a certain extent in order to carry out an analysis of them. Some alternatives of solution are suggested for these problems. Key words: hydraulic system, Mexico City
