Business Utility Meters Coordination

Our expertise and know-how, will help you to ensure the swift delivery of projects within tight timescales and budgets. You need to know that you’re in safe hands so we will guide you through each stage of the process, keeping you informed and reassured every step of the way.

Expertise

Metering solutions can be deceptively complex, with multiple parties, such as meter owners and energy suppliers requiring consultation before works can be initiated. We are the best people to effectively manage and coordinate meter installations that integrate into your wider installation works schedule and, unlike the networks, we can plan a synchronised connection and metering service to mitigate delays between the utility connection and the actual ‘switch on’ date.

Obtaining Meter Numbers

If you have not been provided with a meter point administration number (MPAN) by the network operator, we will submit the necessary documentation to the local distributor to generate the supply number on your behalf.

Supply Contract Negotiation

Before an electricity meter can be installed, an electricity supply contract must be in place with the supplier of your choice. We can provide a comprehensive analysis of the most competitive supply offers available, ensuring you receive the best possible prices.

Shipper Nomination & Meter Number

When you are happy with your chosen supplier we will liaise closely with them to coordinate the meter installation. With years of experience we have built relationships and processes that often allow us to significantly speed up the installation process, saving thousands of pounds by avoiding unnecessary delays and enabling sites to open within tight deadlines.

MOP & DCA Agreements

For all half hourly meters, a MOP and DC/DA agreement is required before an electricity meter can be installed. The price and terms of these agreements can vary dramatically and it is important to choose an agreement that best suits your needs. We have strong, longstanding relationships with a number of established MOP and DC/DA companies and we are confident that we can offer the solution that best suits your requirements.

AMR & Smart Meter Roll Out

We can also assist in sourcing and coordinating the installation of AMRs (Automated Meter Reader) and Smart Meters providing you with greater visibility of your energy usage. Whether you simply require a single smart meter or a full roll out across your entire portfolio, we will be happy to manage the whole process through to completion.

We have been using Maximeyes for a couple of years now and they just take all the hassle out of everything for us. They find us good deals on our utilities, monitor these and make sure that we are constantly updated whenever our contracts end, so that we are always saving money. Whenever there are any problems with any companies especially mobile phones, I just need to send them an e mail or a short phone call and they are onto it immediately, and the problem is always resolved. I have found them to be a very efficient and helpful service and would recommend them without hesitation.

How we work

Whether you require help with creating a utility infrastructure in a newly constructed property, safely disconnecting an old system, installing a metering system, or diverting and altering an existing infrastructure, we can provide the professional support required.

Planning

We gather requirements from either you or your contractor, including details of the site location, floor plans and proposed use for the lines. With this information we raise the order with Openreach and organise the initial site visit with the engineer.

Layout & Design

We obtain an Openreach quotation and design approval to enable the works. The layout proposals will usually be issued four weeks before intended start date, however we can liaise with Openreach to obtain this information earlier if necessary.

Line Install

We design the most cost efficient configuration of lines based on the client’s requirements, i.e. number ISDN channels and analogue lines required, additional services required on the lines maintenance options for lines that require quicker response on the line faults etc.

Tariff Choice

If required we can even negotiate the supply contract by tendering the requirements to various providers and preparing a comprehensive analysis of the most competitive options. We’ll even test your lines once installed and check the first bill to ensure the tariff has been set up correctly.
