Wattseeker listed with UGAP: energy management without a tender procedure
Public buyers can now order Qualisteo's energy management software through UGAP.
The information in this article concerns companies located in France.
Equipping public sites with an energy monitoring tool generally requires a procurement procedure, from drawing up the specifications to evaluating bids. Wattseeker's listing with the Union des groupements d'achats publics simplifies this step.
What the UGAP listing changes
UGAP is the only national general-purpose public purchasing body in France. It conducts competitive tendering itself before offering its products and services. A buyer using a central purchasing body is considered to have met its obligations concerning advertising and competitive tendering.
A local authority or public institution can therefore acquire a licence for Wattseeker energy management software without conducting its own procurement procedure. The time between the decision and commissioning is shortened, with the same legal certainty.
Wattseeker centralises and analyses submeter data in real time and flags deviations through alarms. Its customisable, intuitive interface enables consumption data to be monitored at the level of individual uses, zones or buildings.
Public services already equipped
Public infrastructure accounts for a significant share of Qualisteo's customers. For example, the majority of waste incineration units in France are already equipped with Wattseeker. A large proportion of wastewater treatment plants are too.
As a reminder, Wattseeker energy management software is designed and developed in France, in Nice, by Qualisteo. It is interoperable. It works perfectly with energy data from submeters other than those produced by Qualisteo.
