en.Wedoany.com Reported - Laison showcased its smart prepaid water meters and IoT solutions at the Zambia Water Expo, receiving a certificate of recognition from the event. At the Zambia Water Expo (ZAWAFE), this smart metering solutions provider displayed various types of smart prepaid water meters, including multi-jet, ultrasonic, and electromagnetic models, which support communication technologies such as LoRa/LoRaWAN, GPRS, and 4G (Cat.1) communication technologies. The accompanying exhibits also included a Hardware Data Management System (HDMS), a customer mobile application, and professional operation and maintenance support. These IoT-driven solutions aim to reduce Non-Revenue Water (NRW), improve billing accuracy, and ensure long-term operational efficiency across diverse operating environments.
Laison also introduced the Metering as a Service (MaaS) model, an integrated metering and billing solution that combines hardware, software, connectivity, and operation and maintenance services under a long-term service framework. This model shifts the delivery focus from products to value, aiming to reduce Non-Revenue Water (NRW) while helping water utilities accumulate data assets, improve cash flow, and enhance creditworthiness and financing capabilities. During the expo, Zambia's Vice President, Dr. W.K. Mutale Nalumango, visited the Laison booth and expressed strong interest in the smart prepaid solutions, recognizing their potential for modernizing the national water infrastructure. Laison received a certificate of recognition from ZAWAFE for its participation in the expo, underscoring its commitment to providing innovative and sustainable solutions in support of Zambia's Vision 2030 and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Laison plans to continue expanding its business in Zambia and the broader African market, deepening collaboration with local water utilities and partners. Through smart metering and data-driven solutions, it aims to support the digital transformation of water utilities, enabling more efficient and sustainable water resource management systems.
