Problem Statement
The ERDS Service Definition does not specify the time with a specified time zone. This has led to some instances of MPRS close of day running at 22:00GMT instead of 23:00GMT. A confirmation of time zone is required within the ERDS Service Definition to negate any confusion or delays in flow processing and systems becoming misaligned.

Summary
Within the Switching Operator Service Definition, the Central Switching Service (CSS) Provider is required to provide 10 Working Days’ (WDs) notice of planned system outages. However, within the CSS Provider’s processes and the Switching Operator Change Management Process Category 3 document, an 8 WD lead time is set out. This change seeks to address this discrepancy.

Proposed solution summary
- As the CSS Provider, I want the service levels to be consistently defined across relevant REC Products. This will ensure that I am clear on the lead time I need to provide for planned outages and can meet the defined service level.
- As a CSS User, I want to understand how much notice I will get for planned outages of the CSS, so I am able to appropriately plan my activity reliant on this service.
- As a Switching Data Service Provider, I want to understand how much notice I will get for planned outages of the CSS. This will ensure I am able to appropriately plan my Operational Switching Service Changes and associated activities.

Problem Statement
Across REC products there is an inconsistency in the defined lead time for the CSS Provider to provide notification of scheduled maintenance and system outages. This may result in uncertainty for Switching Data Service Providers around when they should submit an Operational Switching Service Change. This is to ensure there is sufficient lead time for any change to be included within a planned maintenance release, and for CSS Users planning their operational activity around CSS availability.

Problem Statement
VLPs are required to provide their customer’s MPAN as part of the registration process, as per the Balancing and Settlement Code (BSC). VLPs do not currently have access to the EES to enable an MPAN search and they have no reliable means to acquire the MPAN, other than asking their customer to provide it. This could potentially lead to delays in the registration process and may result in an increased risk of inaccurate data, detrimentally impacting the service VLPs are able to provide to their customers.

26/06/2024 - The Technical Expert Panel have rejected R0048 in line with the Code Manager's recommendation.
Summary
Currently within the Central Switching Service (CSS) Service Definition document there is a requirement for the CSS Provider to arrange for and undertake system organisation control type 2 (SOC2) assessments on the CSS’s cloud-based infrastructure. This Change Proposal seeks to determine if it is appropriate for the requirement for assurance on the CSS’s cloud-based infrastructure to be changed from ‘SOC2 Type 2’ to ‘independently assessed’.

Problem Statement
The CSS Provider asserts that SOC2 assessment does not provide a proportionate level of assurance or the best value for money, which based on their experience, they believe they have a better understanding of the CSS’s risk profile. However, the use of SOC2 assessments is currently defined within the CSS Definition document, which means an alternative assurance regime cannot be used.

Proposed solution summary
- As a domestic Electricity Consumer, I want to be quoted accurately for my electricity usage based on my electricity consumption, so that I can make an informed decision to accept/reject the quotation offered.
- As an Electricity Supplier, I want to have access to the most recent Metering Point consumption data to be able to provide accurate prices/quotations to a consumer based on their Electricity usage.
- As a Third-Party Intermediary (TPI), I want to have access to the most recent Metering Point consumption data to be able to provide accurate prices/quotations to a consumer based on their Electricity usage.
Problem Statement
Where an Electricity Supplier provides a quotation, or Third-Party Intermediary (TPI) completes a comparison, for an Electricity Consumer they must rely on the information provided by the Consumer about their electricity usage. In some cases, consumers may not have access to or knowledge of their annual electricity usage. Consequently, this would be estimated leading to potential inaccurate quotations being provided. Having access to the Metering Point level Estimated Annual Consumption (EAC) via the Electricity Enquiry Service (EES) would enable the provision of more accurate electricity quotations, enabling the Consumer to make an informed choice about their Electricity Supplier, tariff and product.

Problem Statement
EES Users do not have a method of integrating the service status of the EES API with their systems. EES Users could experience disruption in their systems/services, caused by EES API disruption or outage. EES Users are not able to automatically identify the root cause of API outages/disruption and may initiate unnecessary internal diagnostic activity after seeing disruption in their systems/services

Proposed solution summary
- As an Energy Consumer, I want to be quoted the correct rates as part of my contract conversation when switching supplier. I want my meter set-up correctly to be able to utilise secondary electricity loads at specific times for specific purposes. (e.g., overnight Electric Vehicle (EV) charging, Heat/Hot Water, Boost, etc.). I want to be assured that I will have access to electricity when I need it. I want to switch to my chosen Supplier without any delays or issues.
- As an Energy Supplier, I need to identify meter types with Auxiliary Proportional Controllers (APCs) at a property, so that I can offer my customer the correct tariff and configure their meter correctly.
- As a Meter Equipment Manager (MEM), I need to identify meter types that incorporate Auxiliary Proportional Controllers (APCs) are present at a property, so that any necessary maintenance/repair work can be carried out appropriately.

Problem Statement
Currently there is no way to identify new meter types that incorporate Auxiliary Proportional Controllers (APCs) outside of the DCC Smart Metering Inventory. Failure to correctly identify these could result in an incorrect meter type being assigned to a supply point. Failure to accurately record where meter types that incorporate Auxiliary Proportional Controllers (APCs) are at a property could result in the meter not being configured correctly by the Supplier. This may impact switching, timely and accurately billing, and industry settlements. Options need to be considered to accurately record what meter types that incorporate Auxiliary Proportional Controllers (APCs) are installed at a property.
