San Antonio Water System

The San Antonio Water System (SAWS) is seeking a technology vendor that can provide a solution for hourly readings on existing meter assets. SAWS has a limited budget for this project and we are seeking a cost effective solution. The assets are primarily associated with the utilities recycled water system. The assets consist of approximately 150 meters ranging from 5/8” – 10” in size. The assets reside in harsh environments of meter boxes, pits, or vaults, so the technology will need to be robust. SAWS is seeking a lease agreement on a per unit basis and wants to deploy 150 units with the selected vendor. With this technology we seek to improve efficiency around a number of assets not targeted for Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI). The data gathered will help us to better serve our recycle customers and answer operational needs related to modeling demands. SAWS would prefer photo proof of the meter once daily time stamped that provide hourly reads and daily time stamped at 11:59 PM on the photo. The vendor should through a software as a service (SaaS) be able to deliver the data through an online dashboard with a means for SAWS to export and retain SAWS data.
