New Orleans, Louisiana Dec 18, 2019 (Issuewire.com) - Greenup Industries is proud to announce it has been selected to replace nearly 17,000 commercial and residential water meters in St. John the Baptist Parish. The $5.27 million dollar project is the first project of its size and type in Louisiana. Greenup Industries will partner with Aclara Technology and Metro Services Group to begin working on the project in January 2020. The estimated completion date is December 2020.
The smart meter technology will provide accuracy and clarity by enabling the wireless transmission of individual customers’ water meter readings directly to the St. John Parish Utilities Department. By collecting multiple reads per day, the new meters allow for better leak detection and improved residential and commercial services.
“The best part about this new system is that it will help us efficiently detect and minimize water loss for the residents and businesses in St. John Parish,” said Rodney Greenup, CEO of Greenup Industries. “By building a more responsive infrastructure, we can pinpoint and respond to potential problems before they happen. In addition, the system will be able to monitor water pressure and keep systems operating smoothly with real-time data as well as improve billing to customers.”
In 2020, customers will have the ability to monitor water usage daily via a computer or smartphone. This will eliminate estimated reads, provide customers with consistent billing, ensure smooth revenue collection, and reduce calls to customer service representatives.
As a provider of maintenance and third-party procurement services, Greenup Industries has expanded quickly since its launch in December 2012. “We provide a full range of on-boarding solutions, maintenance and staffing services as well as specialty construction services to our diverse client base,” Greenup said.
