Baseline Metering Assessment
Documents the present measurement, billing, loss, reliability and system baseline.

WHY THIS ANNEX EXISTS
A decision instrument, not a paperwork exercise.
Establish the controlled starting point against which pilot and rollout claims can later be tested.
Start with uncertainty.
Use the annex to make the decision and its missing evidence visible before discussing a preferred product or schedule.
- 01What meter population, service configurations and field conditions exist?
- 02How are reads, exceptions, edits and billing handled today?
- 03Where are losses, complaints, failed reads and asset-record gaps concentrated?
- 04Which baseline measures can be reproduced after the pilot?
WHAT THE TEAM BRINGS
Required inputs
- Meter and service inventory
- Reading, billing and exception records
- Loss, outage, complaint and field-work data
- GIS, CIS, asset and interface information
WHAT THE TEAM PRODUCES
Controlled outputs
- Controlled baseline dataset
- Data-quality and inventory gaps
- Candidate pilot strata and use cases
- Defined measures for before-and-after comparison
Four disciplined moves.
Reconcile population, configuration and asset identities.
Map current meter-to-bill and field workflows.
Document baseline values, limitations and responsible data owners.
IMPORTANT CONTROL BOUNDARY
What this page does not do.
A weak or changing baseline can make pilot benefits appear larger or smaller than they are. This educational page explains the instrument but does not reproduce its complete working tables. Use the controlled Protocol PDF and the responsible professional or authority for actual project work.
USE THE AUTHORITATIVE VERSION
Open the complete working instrument in Protocol 3.2.
The downloadable publication preserves the full annex, version context and framework limitations.
