Duration: 3 years The City of Yonkers implemented an Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) in October of 2013. The components of the system included the replacement of approximately 30,000 meters and installation of 30,000 radio transmitters (MTUs), the installation of 9 data collectors throughout the city, design and implementation of a custom interface with the billing system Basis 2, and installation and configuration of the MegaNet MCM Software. This system was implemented with a customer portal, WaterSmart, with the goal of providing Yonkers customers with more visibility into their water usage and billing. The system that was selected in 2013 was technologically advanced at the time. However, as technology has advanced, the City of Yonkers system is no longer meeting the original goals of eliminating estimated bills and obtaining more accurate water consumption for accurate water balancing. The City currently has a separate open Request for Proposals, RFP No. 466, to replace that system with a modern, fully functioning AMI System. The scope for that RFP ranges from a full AMI and Meter Replacement with a new CIS Billing System and Customer Portal to a limited AMI System Replacement (Endpoints and Network only). Full scope of that project will be determined upon evaluation of vendor pricing and proposals. Once the award for the replacement AMI system is announced (anticipated Q1, 2023), the City would like to engage the professional services of a qualified vendor to provide Program Management for the AMI Replacement Project. The City of Yonkers is soliciting proposals from qualified vendors to provide Program Management for the Citys AMI Replacement Project. The Scope for Program Management will be determined upon award of the AMI Replacement Project. The City will consider proposals only from those vendors who are able to demonstrate capabilities which meet the full potential scope of the AMI Replacement Project (AMI System + Meter Replacement + CIS Billing System and Customer Portal Replacement). Proposals from vendors who are not able to meet the requirements for managing all aspects of the potential project will not be considered.
