nd setting to work of portable data entry system would take two weeks to prepare.
Whiz also felt it would be desirable to advertise the tender at least twice, one week apart. Further, his enquiries revealed that it would be advisable to leave the tender open for three weeks and allow two weeks to evaluate the tenders. Whiz's experience with Council told him to allow a further three weeks for Council approval. One day was to be allowed for the installation of the software on the personal computer that was required as an integral part of the system. The software was to enable uploading and downloading of data necessary for the readings.
At the same time, the engineering group made similar enquiries about the supply, delivery and installation of the water meters. The engineers estimated that the required specification would take four weeks to prepare. A condition of the specification was that the successful contractor must have forty people available for the installation of the water meters. Note that all the water meters must be installed before the new revenue system goes live. It was also thought advisable to advertise the tender twice, on the same basis as Whiz proposed for the portable data entry system. However, the engineering group decided that their tender should be left open for five weeks. They expected the evaluation of the tenders to take three weeks and approval from Council another three weeks. From the evaluation, the engineers estimated that each employee of the successful tenderer would be able to install five water meters per day.
In the meantime, following the initial staff training on the overview of database technology, the project group deliberated for two weeks on aspects of the existing system. They identified those parts that were functionally good and other parts that needed improvement. A further two weeks were spent considering functions that were desirable but which were not provided in the present system. During this period, the group also selected two user representatives and one information technology staff member to visit three other local government councils who had recently upgraded their systems. These councils were carefully selected, as one had recently upgraded their system, whilst another had installed a package and then had it customised to meet their requirements.
As a result of the site visits, the group identified features that would be highly desirable in a new system. In addition, they realised that their existing data would not be suitable for straight conversion in to the database.
This was because current names and addresses were free formatted whereas it seemed desirable for these to be in a fixed format. In addition they realised the desirability of the data being normalised within the database.
On the basis of the above investigation, the group decided that the best approach would be to go for a package and then customise. The specification was prepared and tenders called. Some other new features included in the specification were:
1. The ability to group water assessments for administrative purposes.
2. Within each of these groups, the ability to gather assessments for meter reading purposes, and specify the route to be taken when the water meters were being read. Provision was also to be made for alteration o
