Summary
When a Switch occurs, with a concurrent change of Metering Equipment Manager (MEM), and the Meter Technical Details (MTD) are not received by the Gaining Supplier’s MEM, they are unable to provide them to the Gaining Supplier. Lack of MTDS can impact Consumers, Suppliers, and other industry Parties. The Change Proposer has highlighted that there is currently no defined escalation process available to Suppliers, enabling them to chase for missing MTDs following a Switch.

Problem Statement
On a CoS the new MEM and Supplier need to receive the MTDs from the previous MEM to complete the setup of the customer’s account and billing records. Where MTD are not sent there is no dispute or escalation process to resolve this. This prevents the new Supplier from setting up the customer’s account and issuing a timely and accurate bill.
