A NRW ‘steering committee’ consist of a group of people (often from the
management team, but also that are in direct contact with the employees) that
can drive, accelerate and check the work in progress and results that are achieved,
by:
Integrating NRW activities in the organizational structure of the company, make
decisions and approve plans
Making resources available and holding people accountable

A NRW task team consisting of commercial and technical department staff
will help to:
Have tasks and responsibilities well defined
Create contact points, for managers, other employees as well as
customers
Create buy-in among staff members and raise the feeling of ownership
through all departments and levels of the company
 
The NRW task team should be coordinated by an experienced NRW
‘caretaker’, who can write/update the NRW management plan, initiate,
drive and monitor NRW management activities and report back to
management.

Key Performance Indicators (KPI)
 
Key performance are (measurable) indicators
that help a utility to:
Better understand water losses
Define and set targets for improvement
Measure and compare performance
Develop standards
Monitor compliance
Prioritise investments

KPI monitoring
 
KPIs can be measured to keep track of performance and analysed to understand the impact on
utility performance.
Different reporting methods can be chosen. It is useful to use software tools that can analyse
and visualise the data.

To keep track of performance and learn from experiences, it helps to initiate
regular Plan, Do, Check, Act (PDCA) meetings with the key people involved (i.e.

Implementing a structured approach to NRW management involves the establishment of a Steering Committee and Task Team. The Steering Committee oversees integration, decision-making, resource allocation, and accountability. The NRW Task Team, led by an experienced caretaker, defines tasks, creates contact points, and fosters ownership across departments. Coordinators within the team handle specific responsibilities like updating management plans, GIS database maintenance, technical coordination, and commercial coordination. Team members execute tasks such as zone analysis, house visits, meter readings, and leak detection.

  4. Steering Committee A NRW steering committee consist of a group of people (often from the management team, but also that are in direct contact with the employees) that can drive, accelerate and check the work in progress and results that are achieved, by: Integrating NRW activities in the organizational structure of the company, make decisions and approve plans Making resources available and holding people accountable 4

NRW task team A NRW task team consisting of commercial and technical department staff will help to: Have tasks and responsibilities well defined Create contact points, for managers, other employees as well as customers Create buy-in among staff members and raise the feeling of ownership through all departments and levels of the company The NRW task team should be coordinated by an experienced NRW caretaker , who can write/update the NRW management plan, initiate, drive and monitor NRW management activities and report back to management. 5

  6. NRW task team coordinators Function Caretaker Tasks Write/update NRW approach (spanning several years) - Initiate, drive and monitor NRW management activities - Ensure quality work - Report to management Update the complete GIS database of the DMA (including customer s GPS locations) - - GIS specialist(s) Help to select suitable areas for DMAs - Report status to team caretaker Support with planning and preparing DMAs - - Technical specialist Coordinate technical team - Report all activities to team caretaker Drive continuous improvement of the customer database - - Commercial specialist Coordinate creditors and debtors - Report status to team caretaker - 6

  7. NRW task team members Function Tasks Zone analysts - Executing house visits Register meter readings - Detect leakages and other problems (such as illegal connections and payment problems) - Locate all clients using GPS locations. - Plumbers Make adjustments to the supply network, installing bulk water meters and valves - Detect leakages and other problems (such as illegal connections and incomplete installations) - Repair located leakages, install/repair water meters and solve other technical problems within the DMA Detect leakages and other problems (such as illegal connections) - Leakage surveyors - Possibly repair located leakages (if only temporarily until more technical support is available) Update the database of the DMA and verify all customers - Creditors - Check invoices and verify if all customers in the area receive them - Inform the debtors on defaulters Update the database of the complete area. Register all consumers that do not pay their bills or that are disconnected - Debtors - Send and collect fines - Check if fines are paid and if defaulters are disconnected - 7
