Methodology

How it works

  1. 1

    Meter reading routes are prepared in the back-office system and pushed to field devices

  2. 2

    Readers follow the optimized route sequence on their handheld device

  3. 3

    At each meter, the reader enters the current reading and captures a photo of the meter face

  4. 4

    The app automatically calculates consumption based on the previous reading and flags anomalies

  1. 5

    If consumption is within normal range, an invoice is generated on-site and printed via a Bluetooth printer

  2. 6

    Abnormal readings or inaccessible meters are flagged as exceptions for supervisor review

  3. 7

    All readings sync to the central billing system when the device reconnects to the network

  4. 8

    Management reports show reading completion rates, exception rates, and crew productivity
