Business Intelligence

How we can help you is from our vast experience, which extends from vending to meters to revenue enhancement with measurable success!

To date, we have assisted with key changing over 250 000 meters through the TID (token identifier) process. The experience and lessons learnt through the process have allowed us to pass on skills and knowledge to many other municipalities who are just starting with their TID process.

Funded Revenue Enhancement

We have successfully assisted many municipalities to increase their revenue. One example entails work for a medium-size municipality, to which we applied a funded model approach, which included the TID rollover. The municipality had an initial project cost of R4 million with the TID and revenue enhancement, and managed to increase their revenue by 30%.

Payback of the project costs took a mere six months.
