INTRODUCTION
Project Context
San Jose del Monte has a biggest resettlement area in the Philippines,
38,846) and 40 others scattered along the city. Managing a thousand of people is
not easy for Water District and monitoring their usage. One example problem
encountered by San Jose Water District is human error wherein water bill is not
data entered is time consuming which leads to delays in the availability of data
on delivering the water bills to the consumer. This system can manage the billing

This study is conducted to help the said establishment to make the billing
process easier, modernized yet user-friendly and reliable. The proponents will
develop a system entitled “Web Based Water Billing System with Mobile

software and hardware that receives detail and service usage information,
groups this information for specific accounts or customers, creates report for the
development of Web Based Water Billing System with mobile Application and will
provide an alternative way for efficiency to give their customers a fast, secure

Proponents. Through the study the proponents will enhance their skills in
system analysis, design and developing a mobile application which is vital for
future I.T professionals and to make a suitable system for the company that they
have chosen.
Future Researcher. The Study will serve as a guide for the student or
other researcher who are also conducting similar study on Web based Water
The results of this study could help them to realize that the Web based
Water billing system is much better than the existing system of water district of
San Jose del Monte because from time to time the technology is changing and
also the people that’s why the proposed project is significant than the existing
system.

This study focuses on how the water billing of San Jose del Monte Water
District will improve their billing system. Therefor customers will receive their
consumption and water bill computation into mobile phone through web based
sending with efficient working environment and user friendly interface resulting

Even though customer can check how much they pay in each month from
home via Water Billing Application, the customer cannot process payment

consumption over five years raises a high user’s bill by 8%, an average user’s bill
by 6%, and a low user’s bill by 3%. The result that greater users face greater
price increases over time also suggests that some amount of progressive pricing
is built into the system, for as overall community consumption decreases, those
who persist in using high volumes of water will account for a larger fraction of the
total and face higher bills as a result. This explains why high use bills increase
more than low-use bills. No bill value exceeds the 2% of MHI limit recommended

consumer’s bill. Compared to the status quo from Simulation 1, lowering costs
and consumption lowers bills by 6% for high users, 5% for average users, and
2.6% for low users. In contrast to the scenario with no change in utility costs, this
scenario provides a greater savings the greater the amount of water used. This
suggests that the yearly cost decreases overpower increases in the proportion of
the total accounted for by the high-use consumer. While all consumers see a
conflict with other goals like equity and conservation-focused billing. Based on
the significant difference in billing prices for CBFR between Lomita and
Longmont, it is clear that the results of switching to the CBFR system are largely
high users but increased bills for low and average use customers. Comparing the
IBR systems employed by each utility reveals some key differences in current
pricing that ultimately make the CBFR either helpful or harmful to customers.

companies pay a lot of money for printing the bills and some meters are
damaged or cannot take readings from. Our proposed system consists of smart
meters. These meters are present in every house and will take the water
readings and send them wirelessly to the water company base station via GSM
modules. The readings are saved into the data base automatically and uploaded
on the website automatically where the user can pay online. Frequents MS
notifications are sent to the user after each step. The Water is generally regarded

Water billing system in Egypt contains many issues: The employee doesn’t take
the reading of the meter and puts threading aimlessly. Some of the meters are
damaged or in places hard to reach and readings cannot be taken from them.
Only one bill is produced for the whole building which is divided evenly among
the apartments in the building. So people who use huge amount of water are
equated to those who don’t. In addition, spending large amount of money for the
employee’s salary and printing the bills, and the bills can be lost as well.
