What the buyer is requesting
Details
Bundaberg Regional Council Water Services is responsible for the provision of quality, cost effective and environmentally sustainable operations of the water supply for residents of the Bundaberg Region, within 8 declared water areas, distributed through 956 km of reticulation, and metered through a fleet of approximately 38,000 water meters.

The water meter fleet is a valuable asset group, as a water meter is used for calculating charges for customers usage by metering water consumption and providing insights into the consumption profile of the respective areas. The meter reading is conducted twice a year, in two (2) cycles and non-cyclic special reads for property transaction/conveyancing purposes of other Council business needs.

This invitation to offer seeks to engage a suitably qualified and experienced Respondent to read the water meters for Council.
