The project involves access-based control for water dispensing at the filling stations, monitoring the movement of fleet of water tanker vehicles, geo-fencing of designated delivery locations and real time water level monitoring in tankers to ensure an end-to-end audit of the entire delivery system.

To make available relevant information to the citizens, the project envisages setting up a Call Centre and Central Control Station (CCS) based in a central office and call centre/ help desk function to register and monitor complaints and request.

Coverage

The project Water Tanker Distribution Management System covers the entire urban area, e.g. in case of DJB, 42 filling point locations, 800 water tankers and about 18,000 fixed delivery points in Delhi. The WTDMS system, from the citizens’ perspective allows booking of complaint / request online or through call centre and check status of delivery or resolution of complaint online, call centre or through SMS. Delhi Jal Board is able to efficiently utilize water at filling point locations, increase efficiency in water delivery services by tracking vehicles in real-time, track and monitor the movement of tankers and drivers in real time basis to optimize operations, improve fleet utilization, schedules, and vehicle availability with accurate information to ensure optimum and effective utilization of water, avoidance in water wastages, better control of the tanker movements.
