Utility Billing Solutions for Communities and Properties with Existing Submetering Systems

We build customized billing solutions for any scenario. Our billing solutions are completely flexible and our services are extensive. If you currently have utility submetering in place, we can help repair any failing equipment to assure that your submetering systems are fully operational and accurately recording and reporting usage data. While our technicians are assuring that all submetering equipment is functioning properly, we will coordinate with you to integrate our utility billing and management platform with your property management software, and consult with you to design and assemble a billing solution tailored to your exact needs and preferences. Transitioning to Oates Energy is easy and can take place as quickly as you need it to.

Remote Read Submetering: If your submetering system is a remote read system, we will make the adjustments that will allow us to begin collecting all usage data.

Direct Read Submetering: If submetering is not a remote read system, we will manually read your meters each month to collect usage data.

Utility Billing Solutions for Communities and Properties that Do Not Have Submetering Systems

Utility submetering systems are not a must have when it comes to collecting more of your utility costs. We help many communities that do not have utility submetering systems through the implementation of RUBS, (Ratio Utility Billing Services). Using a RUBS formula is the next most accurate way to estimate usage for a given space when utility submetering is not available.

RUBS uses a formula combined with your utility master bill to estimate and bill for utilities based on a set of logical factors such as the number of occupants, square footage of the unit, number of bathrooms and other factors. Using a RUBS formula also allows management to separate utility costs from rent and thus keep rental rates competitive while still recovering utility costs. RUBS is a commonly accepted, fair and logical alternative when submetering is not present.
