Community Housing

Affordable and social housing schemes, student accommodation and staff quarters.

High occupancy, thin margins and shared meters make community housing the hardest place to bill fairly. FacilityBills splits bulk supply down to the unit and lets residents pay in amounts they can actually afford.

What gets in the way

One bulk meter for a whole block, so a single defaulter raises everyone's share.
Cash collected at the gate, with no audit trail and no receipt residents trust.
Managers rebuilding the same allocation spreadsheet every month end.

With FacilityBills

Sub-metering and transparent cost allocation per unit, published to residents.
Small prepaid top-ups, so households buy only what they need today.
One reconciled ledger per block, exportable for the housing authority or sponsor.

Per-unit

sub-metering from a single bulk supply

Residential Community

Gated estates, serviced apartments and homeowner associations.

Estates lose more to disputes than to consumption. Give residents live usage, automatic receipts and a self-service history, and the arguments stop being about the numbers.

What gets in the way

Service charge disputes that stall the estate's budget for a whole quarter.
Leaks and overuse discovered only when the bill arrives.
Residents chasing the facility manager on WhatsApp for balances and receipts.

With FacilityBills

Live consumption and balance for every resident, with usage alerts.
Automatic receipts and a full payment history, so nobody has to be believed.
Leak and overuse flags from consumption patterns, before the bill is issued.

Commercial Buildings

Office towers, retail centres and mixed-use developments.

Commercial tenants will not accept an estimate. Meter every demised area, bill on actual consumption, and turn peak-demand data into a diesel and tariff strategy.

What gets in the way

Estimated recharges that tenants contest and withhold payment against.
Peak demand and diesel spend invisible until the monthly reconciliation.
No consumption evidence to support landlord or ESG reporting.

With FacilityBills

Consumption billing per demised area, so recharges are defensible line by line.
Peak demand and load profiles that cut avoidable generator hours.
Exportable energy and water reporting for ESG and lender requirements.

Local Markets

Market clusters, lock-up shops and trade associations.

Hundreds of small accounts, daily cash and no formal tenancy records. Independent metering per shop plus mobile prepaid turns an informal cluster into a billable one.

What gets in the way

Flat levies that overcharge small traders and undercharge heavy users.
Daily cash rounds, with leakage between the collector and the association.
No record of who occupies which stall, so arrears follow the wrong trader.

With FacilityBills

Independent metering per shop, for fair usage-based cost allocation.
Mobile prepaid top-ups that take cash out of the collection round entirely.
A verified stall register tied to every meter, arrear and receipt.

Per-shop

metering and billing, down to a single lock-up stall

Public Parks

Parks, recreation grounds and public amenity spaces.

Public amenities run on lighting, irrigation and seasonal footfall. Scheduling and off-grid power turn an unpredictable utility line into a planned budget.

What gets in the way

Lighting and irrigation on manual schedules, or never turned off at all.
Seasonal spend impossible to forecast, so maintenance gets deferred.
Concession and vendor usage bundled into the authority's own bill.

With FacilityBills

Scheduled lighting and irrigation, with usage visible per zone.
Solar and off-grid options financed over the asset's life, not paid upfront.
Separate metering for concessions, pop-ups and vendor installations.

Zone-level

visibility across lighting, irrigation and water features

Smart Grids

Distribution partners, mini-grids and embedded generation operators.

Grid operators need clean, granular consumption data and a billing rail they do not have to build. FacilityBills is meter-agnostic, so your existing fleet keeps working.
