Overall solution for water supply management

1. Project Name: IC Card Intelligent Water Meter Renovation

2. Project location: Sifangtuozi Prison Management Bureau, Zhenlai County, Jilin Province

3. Main content of the project: Budget and benefit comparison for the installation and renovation of smart water meters

4. Project Overview:

Based on the current prominent and common problems in water management in this management area, propose targeted and feasible solutions. We have learned from the side that the Sifangtuozi Prison Management Bureau also faces issues in water management, such as metering, charging, and management, which need to be addressed. In particular, solving the problem of the management department subsidizing water fees every year has become an urgent and primary issue. If effective measures are not taken in a timely manner to thoroughly eradicate and reverse the long-standing problem of insufficient income and expenditure in water management, it will inevitably form a vicious cycle and even directly affect the work order of the management department. Therefore, it is urgent to concentrate special funds on water use renovation. Starting from the installation and replacement of water meters, adopting quantitative management as the key entry point, and carrying out special governance and transformation from key links, the fundamental goal is to quickly control and solve problems, and to plug management loopholes as a breakthrough point. This can not only have an immediate effect on solving prominent contradictions. And it can also ensure long-term effectiveness in ensuring water supply, management, and charging in the future. At the same time, it can also play a positive role in enhancing the awareness of water conservation among all users, thereby achieving the goal of scientific management and efficiency creation, and improving guarantee capabilities. Based on the actual situation of your company, we have proposed a suggested plan for water renovation work for your reference.

5. Reasons and Basis for Proposal Proposal

5.1 Current prominent contradictions and main problems that need to be resolved:

5.1.1 Significant losses (subsidies) in water management. The obvious problem is that the charging method based on per person per month results in a significant imbalance between the actual usage of users and the water supply by the management department, requiring a large amount of subsidies for monthly water usage funds.

5.1.2 Serious waste of water resources has become a habit. How to solve the problem of ensuring normal water use for each unit while saving water resources and reducing unnecessary waste is an urgent issue that every logistics water supply management department needs to address. Due to the current management method of charging per person per month, the phenomenon of water loss is too serious. Due to the lack of quantitative management, people have developed a weak awareness of water conservation, and the idea of using only the big pot to eat is more prominent. Users often open up when they have water and complain when they don't have water. Conflicts often point to the management department, resulting in pressure concentrated on the water supply management department, and management work is always in a passive state.

5.1.3 Ladder water pricing and automation of water management are the trend. With the continuous development of society, people's demand for water is increasing. Groundwater is overexploited, water resources are becoming increasingly scarce, and the costs of water intake, electricity, labor, etc. are gradually increasing. The commodity value of water is fully demonstrated. How to save water and regulate the supply of tap water through price measures has been put on the agenda. If we still follow the original charging method, it will not solve the problem of different prices corresponding to different water consumption that is about to come.

5.2 Solutions to Problems

5.2.1 Change the fee management method: Using IC card prepaid water meters can strengthen water fee management, get rid of the dilemma of relying on subsidies for protection, and start from the relative difficulties and prominent contradictions in key links such as management, charging, and water use. By combining water meters with management system applications, conflicts can be resolved.

5.2.2 Implementation of One Household, One Meter: The implementation of one household, one meter can quantitatively account for and manage water use, helping people improve water-saving behavior and management ideas. This can reduce water loss and unnecessary waste, alleviate water supply shortages, maintain a balance between inflow and outflow, and focus on solving water difficulties and balancing fees.

5.2.3 Establishing Fee Standards: Develop reasonable and legal fee standards based on different water use properties and calculate them one by one. Adopt scientific and information-based management to curb and reduce human intervention, and always be able to control key areas and links of management.

6. Measurement water meter and management system

6.1 Product Name: Jiannan IC Card Smart Water Meter (one meter, one card per household)

6.1.1 Main functions of the product

① Prepaid function: Users purchase water first and then use it, pre order the amount of water through their user card, supply water according to the purchase amount, and automatically close the valve after use. The function has changed the passive management method of manually checking water and verifying usage before charging. Being able to completely change management methods and achieve scientific management.

② Ladder water pricing function: Different water pricing can be adopted based on the current water consumption of users, which is an effective measure to improve water conservation awareness and quantitative assessment management of water use.

③ Alarm function: The water meter can automatically close the valve to remind the alarm when the balance is insufficient and the battery is under voltage

④ Query function: Users can insert an IC card at any time to check the total water consumption, available water balance, and other related water usage information.

⑤ Display function, prompt function, and time adjustment function.

6.1.2 Management software system

① User management function: The software system implements one-on-one information management and area division management functions for the installed residents.

② Functions of water usage and total management, price management, and fee fund management;

③ Information storage, backup, query, and reporting functions.

7. Total investment budget and benefit analysis (calculated based on 2700 households)

7.1 Investment Funds:

7.1.1 Water meter cost: 2700 pieces x 360 yuan/piece=972000 yuan;

7.1.2 Installation labor cost: 2700 pieces x 20 yuan/piece=54000 yuan;

7.1.3 Material cost for renovation: 2700 pieces x 30 yuan/piece=81000 yuan;

7.1.4 Charging equipment: computer, printer, card dispenser, UPS power supply: 6000 yuan;

7.1.5 Other unforeseeable expenses (management, transportation, etc.): 5000 yuan.

Total budget: 1.118 million yuan.

7.2 Benefit analysis before and after renovation (calculated based on 10000 people)

7.2.1 Economic Benefit Comparison

① Before the renovation, if the daily water supply was 2000 tons, the annual water supply required would be 720000 tons, calculated as 2000 tons/day multiplied by 360 days;

The annual fee is: 10000 people x 2 yuan/(person · month) x 12 months=240000 yuan.

② After renovation: assuming no change in water supply, according to the current water price set by the municipal government (residents of Zhenlai County: 2.6 yuan/ton, commercial: 5.6 yuan/ton);

The annual fee is 720000 tons x 2.6 yuan/ton=1.872 million yuan (if there is commercial water use, the economic benefits are more significant).

7.2.2 Management benefits

① The change in the passive management method of using before charging can effectively alleviate the difficulties in charging, management, and other related aspects, ensuring that the water supply management department charges water fees in a timely manner and reserves funds in advance.

② The management personnel have been streamlined, and the renovated water management system can be combined with other fee management, requiring only 1-2 on-site management personnel, greatly reducing the burden of personnel management and expenses.

③ The water price management standards have been improved, and the charging standards can be classified and implemented according to the water price standards of regional governments.

④ Measurement fees have enhanced residents' awareness of water conservation, which can effectively alleviate the contradiction of water supply shortage and significantly reduce water supply costs.
