IoT Meter Reading Portal

Client and their business requirements

The client is a India-based leading provider of cost-effective wireless automatic meter reading (AMR/AMI) systems to water, electricity and gas utilities as well as sub-metering users. The client is a supplier of a comprehensive range of water meters, to operate those physical devices (water meter), the client approached Anwita Soft Solutions with an idea to develop a smart route portal for metering and maintenance of installed devices.

The client’s existing system was conventional and so they monitored the entire network of connected DC (Data collector) with respective water meters (IoT based) to generate analytical reports and billing information on regular intervals with all the manual tasks for updating every detail. The client approached Anwita Soft Solutions with an ideology to develop a portal that can provide an automated system to notify its user for installation and monitoring of meters.

Based on that Anwita Soft Solutions team of skilled Java developers ideated an outline for the project and developed an emerging solution that was named “Utility Portal”, that streamlined clients’ business at multiple levels and accelerated their processes.

Challenges

To develop clients’ vision into an application that would simplify their monitoring and installation needs was a cumbersome task. Prior to the development of “Utility Portal”, the business had some critical business challenges

  • Implement the functionality in the proposed solution for auto-updating of the update status according to the collected data of DC and Endpoint installation.
  • Implement the feature which can replace the client’s existing manual process i.e. any fault in site/region/EP/DC is been notified via call, so it takes so many manual processes to fix the fault.
  • Manage all the analytical reports and bills which were generated manually and notified to the respective consumer via paper.
  • Implement the features in the solution which replace the manual User management process.
